Dear roisin and others, i have attached a brief reference list which may have some useful stuff - the web is useful in its lkimited way of course. It really is an issue of what you want to focus on - shared and collaborative elements seem important. There is also another reference that, I think, refers to someone in the same institute you are from. regards Jim Barrett, T. (2002). What is happening to problem-based learning tutorials? A critical language approach to the discourse analysis of the lived experience of problem-based learning tutorials. Educational Developments 3.3, 13.
