Scripting Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning: Cognitive, Computational and Educational Perspectives: 6 (Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning Series) - Hardcover

From the reviews:

"The book splits neatly ... with sets of chapters on cognitive, computational and educational perspectives, leading to a very clear-headed interdisciplinary section. ... This is an excellent book ... . is one for the library." (Mike Johnson, British Journal of Educational Technology, Vol. 39 (5), 2008)

Theoretically, the term "script" appears to be rather ill-defined.

This book clarifies the use of the term "script" in education. It approaches the term from at least three perspectives: cognitive psychology perspective, computer science perspective, and an educational perspective. The book provides learners with scripts that support them both in communication/coordination and in higher-order learning.
