Virtual laboratories for cooperation and collaborative learning

From 2002 in Centre for Informatics Education & Applications of Computers we work in a team leaded by Andrzej Walat and Tadeusz Kuran, with co-operation of teachers mainly from secondary schools on european project CoLabs (CoLaboratories Minerva Project) conducted by Marta Turcsányi-Szabó from Loránd Eötvös Uniwersity in Budapest.
Our goal is to design and develop virtual laboratories for cooperation and collaborative learning - collaboratories. We want to provide groups of children - either in one classroom or far apart, even living in different language regions - with opportunities to work and learn together. Polish part of a project is developing microworlds supporting learning of mathematics by student aged 12 - 18.
Within the project we are making use of the Imagine environment. Imagine provides a modern version of well-known Logo language with multiple objects, parallel independent processes and intuitive support for developing Internet applications. Authors of Imagine Logo are: A. Blaho, I. Kalas, P. Tomcsanyi i L. Salanci from J. A. Komensky University in Bratislawa)
