This paper describes the process of conceptualizing CAS (Collaborative Artwork System) as a research based design. CAS is an ergonomic and usable interface accessible either from a mobile device or from a personal computer via Internet. This system will let the user share pictures, audio, and text information in a learning environment. The aim is to explore sharing practices and digital mediated communication in e-learning communities, taking advantage of mobility, ubiquity, and other characteristics of present technology. By developing this project, I will analyze new means for helping increase motivation and generating collaborative learning practices. CAS focuses on students of Master of Arts degree on Art Education who are learning through virtual environments
