Group exploration refers to the shared discovery of a place, activity, environment or topic among two or more people. Students do their exploring in an online environment, use technology to better understand a physical area, or reflect on their experiences together through the Internet. [[Virtual worlds]] like [[Second Life]] and [[Whyville]] as well as synchronous communication tools like [[Skype]] may be used for this kind of learning.<ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Nelson | first1 = B. | last2 = Ketelhut | first2 = D. | year = 2008 | title = Exploring embedded guidance and self-efficacy in educational multi-user virtual environments | journal = International Journal of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning | volume = 3 | issue = 4| pages = 413–27 | doi = 10.1007/s11412-008-9049-1 | s2cid = 17154019 }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Ioannidou | first1 = A. | last2 = Repenning | first2 = A. | last3 = Webb | first3 = D. | last4 = Keyser | first4 = D. | last5 = Luhn | first5 = L. | last6 = Daetwyler | first6 = C. | year = 2010 | title = Mr. Vetro: A Collective Simulation for teaching health science | journal = International Journal of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning | volume = 5 | issue = 2| pages = 141–66 | doi = 10.1007/s11412-010-9082-8 | s2cid = 10889425 }}</ref> Educators may use Orchestration Graphs to define activities and roles that students must adopt during learning, and analyzing afterwards the learning process.<ref>Haklev, S., Faucon, L.

Problem-based learning is a popular instructional activity that lends itself well to CSCL because of the social implications of problem solving. Complex problems call for rich group interplay that encourages collaboration and creates movement toward a clear goal.<ref name="lu">{{cite journal | last1 = Lu | first1 = J. | last2 = Lajoie | first2 = S. | last3 = Wiseman | first3 = J. | year = 2010 | title = Scaffolding problem-based learning with CSCL tools | journal = International Journal of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning | volume = 5 | issue = 3| pages = 283–98 | doi = 10.1007/s11412-010-9092-6 | s2cid = 2348196 | doi-access = free }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Koschmann | first1 = T. | last2 = Feltovich | first2 = P. | last3 = Myers | first3 = A. | last4 = Barrows | first4 = H. | year = 1992 | title = Implications of CSCL for problem-based learning| journal = ACM SigcueSIGCUE Outlook| volume = 21 | issue = 3| pages = 32–35 | doi = 10.1145/130893.130902 | s2cid = 45760984 }}</ref>

[[Project-based learning]] is similar to problem-based learning in that it creates impetus to establish team roles and set goals. The need for collaboration is also essential for any project and encourages team members to build experience and knowledge together. Although there are many advantages to using software that has been specifically developed to support collaborative learning or project-based learning in a particular ___domain, any file sharing or communication tools can be used to facilitate CSCL in problem- or project-based environments.<ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Blumenfeld | first1 = P. | last2 = Soloway | first2 = E. | last3 = Marx | first3 = R. | last4 = Krajcik | first4 = J. | last5 = Guzdial | first5 = M. | last6 = Palincsar | first6 = A. | year = 1991 | title = Motivating Project-Based Learning: Sustaining the Doing, Supporting the Learning | journal = Educational Psychologist | volume = 26 | issue = 3/4| page = 369 | doi = 10.1080/00461520.1991.9653139 }}</ref>
