This paper reports a finding that focused on pre-service mathematics teachers' engagement when solving Model Eliciting Activities (MEA) Tasks in small group settings. Learning is carried out synchronously online through the Zoom Cloud Meetings Platform. Data were obtained based on observations of interactions during learning that were recorded on Zoom and supported by the results of interviews and filling out engagement questionnaires. A group consisting of 2 students who engaged actively and 2 students who were passive was studied in depth for their involvement with reference to Goldin's Engagement Structure framework. The results indicated that when faced with the MEA Task, the group members showed various Engagement Structures that led them to succeed in completing the MEA task. This study also found a new Engagement Structure, namely "Together we can", which triggers the activation of the Engagement Structure in passive students so that they become active in class discussion sessions. The results of this study provide an overview of collaborative learning activities mediated by technology to solve mathematical problems that foster productive engagement. © 2024 Author(s).
