Collaborative learning
• Collaborative learning vs. “traditional” teaching and learning• Traditional classroom: a teacher passes the
information over to students; little opportunity for active participation in knowledge construction and practicing skills
• Collaborative learning: students discuss complex issues and phenomena; learners are active in knowledge construction
• The teacher’s role: guide, facilitator

Benefits of CSCL
• Active and social: participants express opinions, explain viewpoints and argue to reach the best solution
• Application of the learning materials on real-life examples
• Multiple perspectives due to different backgrounds (e.g., disciplinary or cultural)
• Online courses are flexible and accessible to more students
• Collaborative learning (face-to-face and online) is a good preparation for the real work situations
