....features of the system were easily found. One missing ingredient is awareness of other learners present in the environment. Collaboration space awareness has been identified as an important issue (see e.g. 11] It can be achieved in a virtual environment by using real time social navigation [6]. Positive experiences with tools that enhance the sense of other learners in a learning community have been reported [5] These features would fit into EDUCOSM as well. ....

....social environments have enabled humans to accomplish complex tasks based on information gathered collaboratively. Such information is often presented in the forms of objects bearing signs of how they have been used by others, whether as maps, tear and wear signs on books, or footprints [10]. At the same time, such information tends to be very visual. Partly it is because of the navigational nature of user tasks in such social environments (hunters must quickly go on hunting, library users must quickly decide which books to read) thus requiring a quick to perceive medium for ....

....for computer supported collaborative learning [1] The paper describes EDUCO, a system to be used as a learning platform in Web courses with an emphasis towards SCL. To make the students more aware of other students actions in the environment, EDUCO incorporates the concept of social navigation [9]. In their seminal book about social navigation, Munro et al. 9] use an on line grocery store as an example when classifying different types of social navigation: if people visiting the store are given recommendations about what other people have bought, it is a form of indirect social ....

....profiling as well as active recommendations for the students working in the learning environment. The paper describes the system and discusses the generation of profiles and recommendations. EDUCe is a system for on line collaborative learning. EDUCe employs a form of social navigation [10] by visualizing the actions of other participants currently present in the learning environment. Since the actions of the users are visible to the other users in real time, the social navigation is direct [1] Many of the contemporary systems incorporating social navigation use collaborative ....

....the first empirical evaluation as EDUCO was used in a university Course. I Introduction When Dourish and Chalmers introduced the concept of social navigation, they stated it to be navigation because other people have looked at something [4] The concept has evolved since then (see e.g. [8] for an overview of the topic) and various categories of social navigation have emerged (direct indirect [3] intended unintended [6] Today, many of the systems incorporating social navigation use collaborative filtering. It means that these systems provide the user with recommendations of ....
