This article presents an outline of a script theory of guidance for computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL). With its 4 types of components of internal and external scripts (play, scene, role, and scriptlet) and 7 principles, this theory addresses the question of how CSCL practices are shaped by dynamically reconfigured internal collaboration scripts of the participating learners. Furt...

With the dramatic increase of the live webcast scripts about sports, it is an urgent demand to write and publish a sports news article immediately after a sports game. However, so far, the sports news articles are usually written by human experts or journalists, and the manual writing of sports news is timeconsuming and inefficient. This paper describes our system on the sports news generation ...

This paper describes a handbook of scripts—Scriptapedia—for developing structured group model building sessions. Andersen and Richardson (1997) have identified the importance of standardized protocols or “scripts” in group model building (GMB). GMB scripts have historically existed as undocumented structured small group exercises. Scriptapedia represents an effort to improve the practice of GMB...

This paper details the process of designing a web interface providing access to running climate model post-processing scripts on both local and external climate model output data such as the CMIP5 dataset. Feature Modelling is used to provide a automated statistical method of identifying relationships between post-processing scripts, as well as raising the possibility of automatically generatin...

One problem with this arrangement is that the Indic scripts are not all the same; in fact, there are some very significant differences between scripts. Two particular problems resulting from differences are that it is not clear how certain encoding formalisms specified in section 9.1 are to be applied in other Indic scripts, and that there are common problems found in other scripts that are not...

Abstract. The past few decades have witnessed an intensive research on optical character recognition (OCR) for Roman, Chinese, and Japanese scripts. A lot of work has been also reported on OCR efforts for various Indian scripts, like Devanagari, Bangla, Oriya, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Gurmukhi, Gujarati, etc. In this paper, we present a review of OCR work on Indian scripts, mainly on ...

Scripts for computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) offer socio-cognitive scaffolding for learners to engage in collaborative activities that are considered beneficial for learning. Yet, CSCL scripts are often criticized for hampering naturally emerging collaboration. Research on the effectiveness of CSCL scripts has shown divergent results. This article reports a meta-analysis about t...

This article presents a conceptual analysis of collaboration scripts used in face-to-face and computer-mediated collaborative learning. Collaboration scripts are scaffolds that aim to improve collaboration through structuring the interactive processes between two or more learning partners. Collaboration scripts consist of at least five components: (a) learning objectives, (b) type of activities...
