SEMESTER 6 EXPERIENCE
- students and teachers are not all familiar with the possibilities IT -supported collaboration provides (e.g. groups continuously documenting
project progress, teachers using the student project web to follow progress),
- guided exercises are important for students learning by doing in small steps
- teachers must be highly accessible tutors and problem solvers especially during project kick-off and to make injections when group activities fade (search the problems). This poses special problem in a highly physically distributed environment,
- some groups want to have intranets only available for the group (they see a risk for improper result spread before the project is ready),
- the internet provides good opportunities for active search for knowledge and background information to generate ideas during the early project phases,
- discussion forums will not be used unless actively triggered by tutors.
