This paper investigates the role of the physical classroom environment, coupled with a technology environment that includes real-time agents and data analytics, to support the orchestration of complex collaborative inquiry designs in a high school physics classroom. This design-based research contributes to the wider domain of scripting and orchestration (e.g., Dillenbourg 2012; Dimitriadis 2012; Fischer et al. 2013). Guided by a theoretical perspective of learning in knowledge communities (Slotta et al., 2018), we partnered with a physics teacher to co-design curricular activities and assessments that engaged students in collectively solving, tagging and evaluating physics problems, creating a knowledge base of student-contributed examples, and using those examples as a resource in collaborative inquiry challenges. To support the teacher in orchestrating such a complex curricular design, we developed a tablet application that allowed the teacher see the state of the class in real-time, control the flow of activities and helped him know when and where he was needed within the flow of class activities. The tablet leveraged a set of specially designed real-time software agents to process student interactions in real time, allowing dynamic orchestration of student groups, material allocation, and teacher notifications. The paper begins with a review of recent literature on scripting and orchestration, drawing connection to the theoretical perspective of knowledge communities. We then describe our theoretical model, the design-based method, and details of our curriculum and technology environment. The paper concludes with a summary of how the teacher tablet and the real-time software agents helped support the teacher’s real-time facilitation and orchestration.

通过实时反馈支持教室编排：教师仪表板和实时代理的角色

本文研究了物理教室环境以及包括实时代理和数据分析在内的技术环境的作用，以支持高中物理教室中复杂的协作查询设计的编排。这项基于设计的研究为脚本和编排的更广泛领域做出了贡献（例如，Dillenbourg 2012； Dimitriadis 2012； Fischer等人2013）。在知识社区学习的理论视角的指导下（Slotta等人，2018），我们与物理老师合作共同设计课程活动和评估，使学生参与集体解决，标记和评估物理问题，创建知识库学生贡献的示例，并将这些示例用作协作探究挑战中的资源。为了支持老师编排如此复杂的课程设计，我们开发了一个平板电脑应用程序，使老师可以实时查看班级状态，控制活动流程并帮助他知道流程中何时何地需要他课堂活动。这款平板电脑利用一组专门设计的实时软件代理来实时处理学生的互动，从而可以动态编排学生团体，材料分配和教师通知。本文首先回顾了有关脚本和编排的最新文献，并与知识社区的理论观点建立了联系。然后，我们描述我们的理论模型，基于设计的方法以及课程和技术环境的详细信息。
