Hmelo, Cindy E.; Nagarajan, Anandi; Day, Roger S. – Journal of Experimental Education, 2000
Studied the collaborative strategies used in an experimental design task by 24 high- and low-prior knowledge of medical students in groups of 4. The high prior knowledge group used knowledge to help construct plans, evaluate actions, and stay focused. The low prior knowledge group was less systematic and worked at mapping the connections between…

van Boxtel, Carla; van der Linden, Jos; Kanselaar, Gellof – Journal of Experimental Education, 2000
Studied how features of student interaction and the way an individual student contributes to that interaction relates to the improvement of conceptual understanding in the domain of physics, focusing on the use of textbooks during collaborative work. Results for 56 high school students show that the use of textbooks had a negative effect on…
