The document summarizes a workshop on digital ecosystems for collaborative learning that aims to help educators deploy CSCL scripts into mainstream virtual learning environments that integrate third-party web and augmented reality tools. Specifically, it seeks to integrate augmented reality into distributed learning environments along with VLEs and other web tools to help teachers sustainably use these tools in authentic collaborative learning classrooms. It presents a prototype and proof of concept using a jigsaw-based collaborative script, web and AR browsers, and geo-located web resources and 3D models to support the lifecycle of CSCL scripts and orchestrate reflected spaces across ubiquitous learning tools and devices.
