“…The analysis indicated that students engaged in collaborative learning have positive perceptions which imply student who have high perceptions of collaborative learning would be more satisfied than the lower perception ones [11]. In 2008-09 Andreas Harrer and Niels Pinkwart [1] came up with a reusable software design that aimed to integrate several learning environments into one single learning tool which is the concept of collaborative learning system which led to "Scalable Adapter" [1] a concept which was introduced and had the main motive to adapt conditions from different types of learning environments and convert into a single learning tool which will enhance its usefulness and feasibility.…”

“…The Collaborative system will be used to integrate the collaborative learning tools and maintain the interoperability among these tools [1,7] that is instead of using different tools for different specifications there will be a single platform which will be the combination of the experiences that are adapted from the tools of other learning environments. Learners will be able to capitalize on each other's resources & skills to meet the new level of competencies.…”

-In recent years, the online educational system had an ascent shift from individual learning to learning in collaboration. Earlier, people had to use different tools for different purposes in individual learning, but this paper proposes the concept of interoperability between the learning tools which is termed as Collaborative Learning Systems to create a better learning experience and gain knowledge through an interactive platform. The paper presents the proposed architectural design, data flow representations and certain evidence to show that Collaborative learning is more useful and beneficial than the traditional learning systems.

“…Other existing software design approaches applicable to argumentation are either general software design patterns or mainly focused on ITS (Intelligent Tutoring System) design. Wenger (1987), for instance, proposed an architecture based on four software modules (expert, student, tutor and communication), and Harrer, Pinkwart, McLaren and Scheuer (2008) as well as Harrer and Devedzic (2002;Devedzic and Harrer 2005) identified recurring patterns in ITS. Examples for the latter are the KnowledgeModel-View pattern which manages multiple models and views (similar to the MVC pattern for one model and view) or the ICSCL pattern, which allows adapting learning materials separately for individuals and groups at the same time.…”

Educational Technologies for Teaching Argumentation Skills

Teaching to argue is challenging. Classic face-to-face approaches do not scale up for large groups due to resource limitations (teacher time), but have shown to be effective. As a consequence, there have been attempts to convey argumentation skills via educational software. Even though some of these systems have shown their suitability in their original domains of application, the systems typically do not generalize -there has been little carry over to other domains. This chapter reviews existing approaches, their technological strengths and weaknesses, and proposes a generic architecture to overcome the latter. Based on this architecture, the LASAD (Learning to Argue -Generalized Support Across Domains) framework has been developed. The goal of this framework is to simplify the development of argumentation systems based on some well-defined configurations. In this chapter, we describe the flexibility of the LASAD framework and demonstrate how it can be configured to emulate the existing argumentation systems Belvedere and LARGO.

“…(KESHAV; GAMBLE, 1998;HARRER et al, 2008) data systems because data produced by different entities are homogenized and stored in a central repository (BOUGUETTAYA;MILLINER, 1995;REPOSITORIO, 2021). File Transfer pattern is another possible solution for this interoperability issue.…”
