About

Kateryna Zabolotna investigates how task design shapes collaborative learning, focusing on the cognitive, metacognitive, and socioemotional interactions that drive knowledge construction. Her work reveals that in computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL), it is not technology alone but the intentional design of tasks that determines how students regulate their learning together. Her highly cited 2025 study, “How does collaborative task design shape collaborative knowledge construction and group-level regulation of learning?” (21 citations), demonstrates that varying task structures can fundamentally alter how secondary school students engage in group-level regulation and co-construct knowledge. By bridging instructional design with learning analytics, Zabolotna provides actionable insights for educators and researchers seeking to optimize collaborative environments. Her research is particularly impactful for those designing CSCL interventions, offering evidence that thoughtful task design can foster deeper, more self-regulated group learning. With a growing citation record, Zabolotna is emerging as a key voice in understanding how to engineer productive collaboration in digital classrooms.
