The analysis of the interactions that occur among participants in computer-supportedcollaborative learning (CSCL) experiences has become a major research topic in this field.Interaction analysis (IA) methods and tools aim to enhance collaboration among participants, providing support for basic functions such as awareness, regulation or evaluation.The importance of these functions depends on the roles played by the participants in acollaborative experience. For this reason, IA tools need to interpret and manage theinformation needs required by the participants’ roles as well as to recognize the dynamic roletransitions that usually occur in authentic learning settings, in order to adapt their outputsto the needs of these changing roles during the development of collaborative activities. Weare working in the definition, developing and validation of a conceptual framework forcharacterizing roles in collaborative learning contexts that aims at supporting IA tools inachieving these goals. In this paper we present two experiences carried out in the sameauthentic learning context that illustrates the use of this framework and forms part of alongitudinal validation process of the framework. The first experience shows how this framework supports the definition of IA indicators and values for detecting role transitions in a dynamic way, identifying a limited set of emergent roles. The second experiencedescribes a static adaptation of an interaction IA tool for supporting the pre-definedinformation needs specified in the framework for several static roles
