Abstract: Six principles of future learning environments have emerged from the CSCL research community. These include: greater "sightlines" into learner, teacher and peer cognition; an increasingly salient role for modeling; increased connectivity between people, concurrent with a greater sense of individualization or "one-to-oneness"; fluid contextual mobility in learning, such as between virtual and real contexts or interoperability of individual, social and machine knowledge forms; and higher interactional bandwidth, or capacity of the environment to mediate meaningful content. Four grand challenges large, worthy, and difficult tasks should occupy the attention of the CSCL community. Each is a frontier: a more visible and vibrant role for the tools and metaphors of the CSCL community in a troubled era of globalization; means for extending collaboration beyond cognitive models to a broader range of human experience; vitality in learning and collaboration through the life cycle; and unlocking group "flow" in the science of collaboration.
