Collaboration in E-learning Environments – Psychological Aspects and Current Technologies
Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Human - Computer Interaction - Year 2008, Vol 1, Issue 3
Abstract
This review synthesizes the main theoretical and applicative approaches regarding collaboration in current e-learning environments. The paper sets off from the psychological and educational foundations of collaborative learning, on the one hand, and from the current level of Web technology, on the other hand. The concepts, premises and typology of the approaches that support computer mediated collaborative learning are treated next. Finally, the main technologies and applications that implement collaborative e-learning are presented.
