q3 i0 Compared to no support, neither the script nor the reflection scaffold produced an effect on the quality of interaction during the second collaboration task. → Sebastian Strauß 2025

Evidence¶

Sebastian Strauß 2025¶

Sebastian Strauß, Isis Tunnigkeit, Julia Eberle, Arlind Avdullahu, Nikol Rummel. (2025). Comparing the effects of a collaboration script and collaborative reflection on promoting knowledge about good collaboration and effective interaction. Intern. J. Comput.-Support. Collab.

q3 · i0 · causal · r?

In the laboratory experiment's testing phase, groups collaborated without support after receiving script, reflection, or control treatment; the study reports "no effect of the script or the reflection scaffold on the quality of interaction" relative to control. Equivalence was not established; no effect size printed.

"However, we found no effect of the script or the reflection scaffold on the quality of interaction in the subsequent collaboration."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• Collaboration — outcome: instruction changes it

Related Claims¶

• Video-modeling of collaboration, especially with prompted reflection, produced more lasting learning about collaboration than scripted practice once script supports were withdrawn — related
• Learners who reflected collaboratively on their prior collaboration gained more knowledge about effective collaboration than learners guided by an external collaboration script or unsupported learners — related
• After working with the script, students improved their individual task representation of high-level tasks and their strategy reflection — related
