Using Problem-based Learning Analytics to Investigate Individual and Collaborative Mathematics Learning in a Digital Environment Over Time

The project aims to understand how engagement in learning mathematics is enhanced by a digital collaborative platform with an embedded problem-based curriculum and a digital mathematics notebook. We investigate how engagement and learning is affected over a year-long seventh grade course. Using digital notebooks, platform analytics, and classroom artifacts, we report on a set of initial design characteristics for digital platforms that support student collaboration in learning mathematics.
