infrastructure for recording portfolios, amethodology to dynamically record and analyze those data collected in response to learningenvironments and learning conditions is essential for the development of students’ creativityin learning. A sound analysis on learning portfolios and exploring those links among learningbehaviors will substantially lead us to discover the factors that motivate creativity andobtained findings can be used by educators for teaching, guidance, and assistance.Therefore, this study explores two analytic factors: learning behavior and cognition portfolioin light of the theory of creativity development. According to the instructional outline andlearning objectives of the engineering curriculum, in this study we introduce the

important reason could be the fact that there is little or no structure to the activities in theseuses of wikis. On the other hand, in our approach, the activities are designed to trigger cognitiveconflict leading to students engaging in effective collaborative learning.Some researchers have suggested that technology, which is indeed the backbone of CSCL, shouldbe exploited to realize some unique possibilities: • The fact that CSCL environments can record the interactions in detail allows researchers to zoom in and see what exactly is going on during the collaborative interactions 16 , making it a richer design environment for the researcher; • Computational media, being configurable and adaptive, can make new interactions
