This paper is based on a study aimed at investigating the potential ofcollaborative learning in mathematics problem solving usingcomputer-supported learning environments that incorporate communicationopportunities. The specific context in which the study was undertakeninvolved the use of the multi-environment system ARI-LAB, which wasimplemented to develop problem solving abilities in primary schoolstudents. On the basis of the results obtained from long-termexperimentation with this system, some research problems are discussedwith the purpose of investigating factors which influenced the natureand type of student interaction. The final aims are to support thedesign of effective computer-based instructional materials thatincorporate communication opportunities and in particular to stress theimportance of establishing a well-designed context of use for thetechnology.
