Just putting a group of people around a task does not guarantee a real collaboration; its necessary structure activities convey good communication and participation among group members. Games have been designed as a mechanism to support communication between people working on a group activity.
In this talk, I will present the developments of software tools based on games in order to analyze the quality of the collaboration process for small groups working synchronously toward two goals: learning to collaborate and collaborating to learn.
