A well-known example of a collaborative script is the “Jigsaw.” Learn more in: Communities in Technology-Enhanced Environments for Learning

They organize the collaboration process of two or more people, entities, or organizations working together to complete a task or achieve a goal. Specifically, the collaboration scripts organize the task into a sequence of phases, assigning student roles and tasks, and explicating the specificities of role-playing and task development. They aim to trigger peer interaction and to engage team members in fruitful and productive learning.
