mRx: Negotiating collaborative decisions

In this paper, we present the architecture for a working prototype of a decision tool, the mR
x
. The goal of this prototype was to develop a simple, yet valid, tool to help members of the forestry community to collaboratively negotiate decisions for prescribed burns. The architecture of the mR
x
has been designed by mapping key learning strategies to pedagogical models. Technological affordances are then leveraged to support these strategies and models.
