Abstract

The construct to assess collaborative complex problem solving has two dimensions: the collaboration and the complex problem solving construct. Both have been defined in the past in the literature, but unfortunately no common model exists. In addition, current assessments lack of authentic tasks which enforce both face-two-face collaboration while solving a complex task. The paper presents a scenario where a task was designed to offer best conditions for assessing collaborative complex problem solving. The principal idea is that the actors play a certain role with specific objectives and different constraints. In addition, different implementations of feedback cues are provided.
