Collaborative Learning and Soft Skills Seminar (CLASS) is an innovative pedagogical method for assessing large groups of students within the constraints of a short semester. In this approach, students are organized into teams of four, collaboratively selecting a subject-related topic. Each team delivers a 20-min presentation with 20 slides, with…

Computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) is considered an effective strategy for knowledge construction, and research on CSCL in cross-cultural contexts is of great significance for improving the knowledge construction and learning outcomes in minority regions. This study focuses on the relationship between thinking styles and role…

This study qualitatively develops further understandings regarding knowledge and identity construction within computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) research by applying discourse analysis and the dialogical self theory (DST) to investigate the role of interpersonal and intrapersonal voices in facilitating knowledge construction. We…

Discussion has become a crucial method of interactive learning in online collaborative environments. This study aims to identify the impact of different task motivation compositions and learning scaffolding on attention, learning performance, and behavioral patterns. The 90 Chinese undergraduate and graduate students (M[subscript age]=20.38,…

This case study examines the use and possibilities of blogging as reflective practice journals by student teachers during their practicum. The blog serves as a tool for the construction of their teacher identity through the encouragement of daily reflection on school experiences. The study investigates how the blog, as a digital tool, facilitates…

The account of practice titled Action Learning to enable personal, organisational and industry level change in Welsh agriculture is set in the context of Agrisgôp which offers action learning and peer to peer mentoring as part of the Welsh Government's Farming Connect programme. The programme has adopted the Business-Driven Action Learning (BDAL)…

Collaborative problem solving is widely recognized as a critical 21st-century skill. Assessing collaborative problem solving depends on coding the communication data using a construct-relevant framework, and this process has long been a major bottleneck to scaling up such assessments. Based on five datasets and two coding frameworks, we…

The need of being able to foster transformative learning (TL) has increased due to the demands for continuous development in today's work life. Previous research has proposed six core elements to foster TL; however, in these a process perspective is missing. By using an adaptive approach and inspired by action research, drawing on teachers'…

Research indicates that to adjust a group's emotional atmosphere for successful collaborative learning, group members need to engage in group-level emotion regulation. However, less is known about the whys and ways regulation is activated at a group level. This research explores what triggers 12-year-old primary school students' (N = 37) negative…

Socially shared regulation contributes to the success of collaborative learning. However, the assessment of socially shared regulation of learning (SSRL) faces several challenges in the effort to increase the understanding of collaborative learning and support outcomes due to the unobservability of the related cognitive and emotional processes.…

While the use of games for learning in higher education is well established, existing research provides limited understanding of individual experiences that shape engagement and learning in collaborative learning games. Insights into players' individual experiences can, however, contribute to a more nuanced utilization of learning games and to…

Multiple studies have been conducted regarding teachers' error-handling practices, and how errors can be treated as opportunities for learning, albeit in the context of whole-class discussions. The aim of the present research is to continue to investigate teachers' error-handling practices as they occur in different phases of maths lessons:…

Collaborative testing and its benefits have been reported in diverse disciplines across different types of academic institutions. However, there has been minimal research conducted on collaborative assessments in medical schools, particularly in the gross anatomy laboratory. The objectives of this study were to explore the effect of collaborative…

This paper aims to investigate the antecedents of how crowdfunded projects succeed over crowdsourcing platforms (CFPs) on the Internet. As CFPs make quite a large number of open innovations feasible, little is known about knowledge sharing and cross-project learning (CPL) in association with the success of crowdfunded projects. No study has…

To cope with an unpredictable future, higher education in mathematics and science (MS) needs to educate a knowledgeable and skilled workforce. Co-operative learning (CL) is a teaching method associated with increased academic achievement and development of generic skills. Thus, the purposes of this scoping review are to assess the evidence base of…
