Sometimes,/nunexpected events occurring at runtime force this pre-defined distribution to be changed. In such situations, an adjustment of the group structures to be adapted to the new context is needed. If the collaborative pattern is complex, this group redefinition/nmight be difficult and time consuming to be carried out in real time. In this context, technology can help on notifying the teacher which incompatibilities/nbetween the actual context and the constraints imposed by the pattern. This chapter presents a flexible solution for supporting teachers in the group organization profiting from the intrinsic constraints defined by a CLFPs codified in IMS Learning Design. A prototype of a web-based tool for the TAPPS and Jigsaw CLFPs and the preliminary results of a controlled user study are also/npresented as a first step towards flexible technological systems to support grouping tasks in this context.application/pdfeng© Springer (The original publication is available at www.springerlink.com)Aprenentatge -- Treball en equipEstratègies d'aprenentatgeTecnologia educativainfo:eu-repo/semantics/bookParthttp://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-19814-4_6ConstraintsFlexibilityCLFPGroup managementIMS LDinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
