Abstract

Several researchers in the area of collaborative work take the quality of the group outcome as a success criterion. Nevertheless, recent findings are giving more importance to the quality of the collaboration process itself. This paper presents a set of patterns the main objective of which is to evaluate and monitor the collaborative learning process. Also we describe a software tool we have implemented based on these set of patterns and how the patterns proposed have helped us to evaluate and monitor the collaborative learning processes.
