PERCEPTIONS OF MOBILE ASSISTED E-COOPERATIVE LEARNING QUALITY
Journal Title: Asian Journal Social Sciences & Humanities - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
This study was to examine students’ learning experience during collaborative learning tasks in a social e-learning environment with mobile apps, based on social constructivism theory in higher education settings. To better understand the quality of students’ learning experience, 52 university students answered a questionnaire after experiencing a mobile assisted social e-learning system. The survey was designed to measure 7 variables from students’ perspective, positive interdependence, individual accountability, group processing, social skills, face-to-face interaction, quality of feedback, and perceived ability. There were 4 dimensions in evaluating students’ quality of learning experiences, usefulness, confidence, motivation, and satisfaction. The results showed that perceived individual accountability and quality of feedback were found to predict perceived learning quality. Further, the results demonstrated that quality of feedback on the social performance of individual group members can enhance the perceived learning quality. Results revealed that students favored working collaboratively using hand-held devices in a socially connected e-learning environment.
