    Abstract

    The main purpose of this paper is to present a service called Teaching Assistant. The aim of the assistant is to facilitate the task and assessment management in collaborative learning scenarios. This assistant intends to help instructors to design and to evaluate collaborative learning tasks in this type of scenarios. For the development of the Teaching Assistant we defined an instructional model based on the Group Investigation method. The implementation of the assistant is embedded into the Learning Management System Moodle. Nowadays, a research study has been performing with students and instructors at the Universidad Pontificia Bolivariana, UPB-Montería (Colombia). The objective of the study is to identify the effect of the Teaching Assistant in the design process of the collaborative learning scenarios scripted by the instructors in Moodle. Specifically, how the assistant decreases the time used in this process. Due to this improvement, the learning experiences can be better.
