Abstract: We aim at supporting the complex instructional design process
for collaborative learning. We adopt learning theories as a basis for designing,
analyzing, and evaluating the collaborative learning session. We have brought
the ontological engineering technique into our approach. Up to the present,
we have built a collaborative learning ontology and formulated collaborative
learning models in terms of the ontology. Currently, laying the ontology and
the
model as basis, we have been conducting a project aiming at developing various
kinds of ID support system for collaborative learning. In this paper, we will
describe an overview of our Collaborative Learning Ontology, and then present
two systems to support the instructional design process for collaborative learning:
a group formation support system, and an interaction analysis support system.
