A Proposed Model for Online Project Based Collaborative Learning: Expert Review
Keywords:
Collaborative Learning, Online Collaborative Learning, Interrater AgreementAbstract
Interest in collaboration is a natural outgrowth of the education trend towards active learning. Many researchers have found that collaborative learning improves academic performance, promotes soft skills development (i.e., communications, collaboration, problem-solving and critical thinking skills), and increases satisfaction in the learning experience. Nevertheless, several studies have reported the complete opposite. In that respect, based on previous findings, three factors and nine elements have been identified from the literature. The purpose of this study is to measure the interrater agreement between nine (9) experts. Findings from this study show that all experts agreed with all of the factors and elements that produce effective Online Collaborative Learning. This study also proposes an Online Project-Based Collaborative Learning model. This model is currently in a conceptual phase and requires significant development before it can be used to gather data. Therefore, during the next stage of this study, a prototype will be designed and developed based on the proposed model.
