Abstract

This paper presents the results of an investigation about the change in teacher’s role that occurs in using ICT as a tool for collaborative learning in primary and secondary education. The interest is focused on the use of a tool designed for collaborative learning, the Basic Ssupport for Collaborative Learning –BSCL-, under the pedagogical model of progressive inquiry. First, we present a theoretical review and second, the research questions and the justification are presented and the chosen design and methodological approach (the case study) are described. The results show that there is a trend towards a change in the role of teachers in the use of BSCL as a tool for collaborative learning and the effectiveness of the model of progressive inquiry in students’ knowledge building
