Zusammenfassung

Abstract. Thispaperpresentsourapproachincombininganalysisacross a combination of learning tools to provide both in-tool and cross-tool sup- port. The paper uses as a case study a scenario where students undertake an activity in a microworld and are encouraged to collaborate using a discussion and argumentation environment. Several technical challenges, like the balance between centralised and distributed support, the distri- bution of heterogeneous information, and the provision of support based on this information are discussed.
