Abstract

Recent research has to a limited extent explored the situated conditions of different kinds of awareness information in distributed collaborative learning environments. We approach this issue by developing a set of design principles related to a networked 3D-learning environment. The principles constitute the following relationships outlined from socio-cultural perspectives: actor-object, object-object, and actor-actor. In these relationships among students, we illustrate how awareness information is shaped and developed throughout their social interactions during task solving. We conclude by emphasising the importance of meta-communicative actions as part of meaningful knowledge construction in distributed collaboration. In addition, we identify four tensions between the design principles and the actual knowledge construction.
