<p><br></p>
<p>The thesis aims to improve the process and outcomes of dialogic collaborative problem solving by explicitly teaching students productive peer talk. It adopts a technology-enhanced participatory visual learning analytical approach to involving students in analyzing, visualizing, and reflecting on their group talk around some primary questions including "did we talk equally?", "did I persuade others?", "did I understand others?", "did I talk for the group?" and "did we make progress?". </p>

<p>This thesis further evaluates the usability of the designed tool </p>
<p>iTalk–iSee and the efficacy of the intervention in improving collaborative discourse, participation equity, and group thinking.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The dataset contains two SPSS files supporting the quantitative analysis. One file is about group level statistics including group reasoning scores, task scores at pre-test and post-test, and discourse features of pre-test and post-test tasks. The other file is about individual level statistics including individual reasoning scores, individual demographics, and relevant characteristics. </p>
