Abstract :
This paper presents the difficulties that the tutor encounters when he carries out the follow-up of a distance collective activity, and particularly those related to the perception of the individual work in a collective activity. From a study of scenarios of distance collective activity found in the literature, we make some proposals in order to facilitate the tutor´s perception of the learner´s activity in the group activity, in particular, to facilitate the perception of the group dynamics with qualitative information. We have elaborated a model of follow-up of learners involved in a collective activity which we present in this paper, especially, the functionality of perception of the group dynamics. We present the tools of perception of the group dynamics we have implanted.
