                           Abstract—Computer Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) systems can offer the automation of many teaching resources and activities by the encouragement of the interaction among students as a means of implementing constructivist and sociocultural educational theories. This study is grounded on Piagetian Theories to investigate the use of cognitive knowledge misconceptions (lacking and misunderstanding) in a dialogue protocol, and to evaluate how social behavior can influence student’s learning. Results show the role of help requesters in CSCL by the assessment of four dialogue dimensions.
