Measuring mathematics discourse in technology-supported collaborative activities

چکیده
This paper presents a classroom observation protocol and analysis method that efficiently capture key student and teacher discursive moves. We developed this protocol for use in a study comparing classrooms using Eduinnova, handheld computer-supported collaborative learning software, with classrooms using a popular, non-collaborative software application aimed at the same topic. Analysis of data from the observations clearly shows differences between student discourse in these classrooms but also reveal some challenges in the CSCL classroom.
