“…When students collaborate they have to maintain durable relationships and acceptable levels of participation. Interactions that are associated with these aspects of the group performance can be typified as social-emotional interactions [70]. These interactions are primarily directed towards the relationship between group members [12].…”

This paper employs facial features to recognize emotions during a coding activity with 50 children. Extracting group-level emotional states via facial features, allows us to understand how emotions of a group affect collaboration. To do so, we captured joint emotional state using videos and collaborative experience using questionnaires, from collaborative coding sessions. We define groups' emotional state using a method inspired from dynamic systems, utilizing a measure called cross-recurrence. We also define a collaborative emotional profile using the different measurements from facial features of children. The results show that the emotional cross recurrence (coming from the videos) is positively related with the collaborative experience (coming from the surveys). We also show that the groups with better experience than the others showcase more positive and a consistent set of emotions during the coding activity. The results inform the design of an emotion-aware collaborative support system. CCS CONCEPTS• Human-centered computing → Empirical studies in HCI.

“…Small groups supported by technology in undertaking collaborative learning in the classroom have received relatively little attention in the HCI research community [ 5,3]. The work of Dillenbourg et al [ 7,8] on orchestration identified this gap where in [ 8] they defined orchestration as "the real time management by a teacher of multiple learning activities within a multi-constrained environment".…”

This paper presents the results and experiences of a sixweek deployment of multiple digital tabletops in a school. Dillenbourg's orchestration framework was used both to guide the design and analysis of the study. Four themes, which directly relate to the design of the technology for the classroom, out of the 15 orchestration factors are considered. For each theme, we present our design choices, the relevant observations, feedback from teachers and students, and we conclude with a number of lessons learned in the form of design recommendations. The distinguishing factors of our study are its scale (in terms of duration, number of classes, subjects, and teachers), and its 'in-thewild' character, with the entire study being conducted in a school, led by the teachers, and using teacher-prepared, curriculum-based tasks. Our primary contributions are the analysis of our observations and design recommendations for future multi-tabletop applications designed for and deployed within the classroom. Our analyses and recommendations meaningfully extend HCI's current design understandings of such settings.

“…Several initiatives have been implemented in CSCL for the classroom and some examples of these experiences are described by Zurita and Nussbaum (2004) and Diggelen and Overdijk (2007) who performed small group collaborations; Hung et al (2009) who developed a collaborative English vocabulary-acquisition-game system; and Zea et al (2009) who made a collaborative video-game to teach vowels. In these cases, the research focused on small groups, where each participant had his own device.…”

The purpose of this paper is to show how a large group of students can work collaboratively in a synchronous way within the classroom using the cheapest possible technological support. Making use of the features of Single Display Groupware and of Multiple Mice we propose a computer-supported collaborative learning approach for big groups within the classroom. The approach uses a multiple classification matrix and our application was built for language-learning (in this case Spanish). The basic collaboration mechanism that the approach is based upon is "silent collaboration," in which studentsthrough suggestions and exchanges-must compare their ideas to those of their classmates. An exploratory experimental study was performed along with a quantitative and qualitative study that analyzed ease of use of the software, described how the conditions for collaborative learning were achieved, evaluated the achievements in learning under the defined language objectives, and analyzed the impact of silent and spoken collaboration. Our initial findings are that silent collaboration proved to be an effective mechanism to achieve learning in large groups in the classroom.
