Abstract: Collaborative learning has gained much research attention in the past few years given the cognitive benefits attributed to it.We are investigating automatic adaptive support to groups in a computer supported collaborative learning (CSCL) system.In this paper, we report a study in which we observed the joint-problem solving processes of a teams of three learners.We adopted a Sudoku puzzle as our learning task.We analyze data collected from groups' problem-solving to identify different states of individuals' participative activities within groups.We also determine indicators, activators and inhibitors of collaboration during joint problem-solving (JPS) to characterize group learning activities.Our findings together with the related work provide a foundation for further studies that will design an appropriate technological solution for a sharedactivity group environment.This environment will be enhanced to gather collaboration data, evaluate the level of group interaction, determine the need and kind of support to groups and finally, provide real-time adaptive support to learning groups for enhanced collaboration.
