The fourth and final category, Adaptive Collaboration Support, is intended to capture adaptive support in learning processes that involve communication between multiple persons (and, therefore, social interaction), and, potentially, collaboration towards common objectives. This is an important dimension to be considered as we are moving
away from “isolationist” approaches to learning, which are at odds with what modern learning theory increasingly emphasizes: the importance of collaboration, cooperative learning, communities of learners, social negotiation, and apprenticeship in learning (Wiley, 2003). Adaptive techniques can be used in this direction to facilitate the communication / collaboration process, ensure a good match between collaborators, etc.
