This study aims to contribute to our understanding of whether and to what extent collaboration is a consolidated teaching practice in Italian schools. The paper reports the results of a survey of Italian teachers (N=268) that investigated (self-reported) behaviours regarding the design of collaborative learning activities (prior to and during the pandemic). Results show that even if collaborative learning approaches are implemented to some extent by Italian teachers and were also proposed online as part of Emergency Remote Teaching during the lockdown - their design choices are not always in line with recommendations widely agreed by the Computer Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) research community.

Abstract
This study aims to contribute to our understanding of whether and to what extent collaboration is a consolidated teaching practice in Italian schools. The paper reports the results of a survey of Italian teachers (N=268) that investigated (self-reported) behaviours regarding the design of collaborative learning activities (prior to and during the pandemic). Results show that even if collaborative learning approaches are implemented to some extent by Italian teachers and were also proposed online as part of Emergency Remote Teaching during the lockdown - their design choices are not always in line with recommendations widely agreed by the Computer Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) research community.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
