The Study About Collaborative Learning Environment Based On Internet

There are five basic learning modes in the distance learning which based on the Internet: Instructional Mode Tutorial Mode Discussing Learning Mode Explorative Learning Mode and Collaborative Learning Mode. Between them, the Collaborative Learning Mode is best fit for developing learner抯 cognitive ability and formulate well relationship among colleagues, best fit for cultivate creative talented person which was just demanded by modem informational society. Moreover, the multimedia.. internet and so on technology also provide effective material foundation and conditions. So it is getting more and more attention from the educational circle for the Collaborative Learning Environment based on Internet. Collaborative Learning is meant an pedagogy in which the learners divided in group, based on the same destination and actuate mechanism, conducted collaborative and cooperative activity for maximal individual and group learning result. It's based on constructivism and humanism learning theories. These learning theories emphasize on learner based educational instructing or learning method, and emphasize on learning environment design. It's thought learning environment is an location where learner can explore and autonomic study, where support and promote learner's learning. The Collaborative Learning environment based on the Internet is an location where several learner pursue the same learning object, avail of diversity Internet tools and information resources, communicate and cooperative together. In the collaborative learning environment which base on Internet, the role of teacher and student's altered. The teachers?dialectic role is converted to the helper who help students constructed knowledge and meaning ,and the role of students converted from passive receiver to active constructivist. The students in this collaborative learning environment, may use every kind of information resource, conununicate and cooperate with other collaborator by the media of Internet, and with the help of teacher, autonomic construct the content of knowledge which is needed. So, the network computer is not only the delivering tool of information, but also the cognitive tool of collaborative learning. The interaction and cooperation between the collaborator students is essential part for the collaboration learning. The interaction between the collaborators can be realized by Computer Mediated Communication. It is the means for share information, idea and constructing HASTES THESIS knowledge. The cooperative mechanism include: share information share activity. act with role~ support creative aetivities. cooperative perceive and control manage. This article first addressed the concept and theories about collaborative learning, then based on the analysis of the character and learning procedure, advanced an system design strategies . architecture structure and system implemetation. At last, point out some disadvantages and future directions.
