With the development of the Internet,the Internet penetration in education has a great influence on education forms and methods.Classroom instruction from closed to open,from real-time to anytime.Blended learning has become a new trend of university learning.Collaborative learning as a part of hybrid learning has attracted a lot of scholars'attention.However,the Research on network collaborative learning in the past is mostly in the design of teaching activities,platform development,and pattern exploration and so on,most of the influencing factors stay at the qualitative analysis level.So,from the angle of empirical research,and use quantitative research and qualitative research methods to explore the effect of collaborative learning has some valuable and significant.The content of this study are:(1)Determining the dimensions of influencing factors.This study determined self-efficacy,learning motivation,negative psychological as internal factors influence the learners' individual learning,and learning leadership,learning community,learning activities and learning resources for learning environment external factors;(2)Determining a measurement scale for the effectiveness of collaboration learning and writing questionnaire of influencing factors.This research reference maturity scale and combined with practice,using the analytic hierarchy process method to develop the scale of learning effect evaluation.Followed by determining the measurement dimensions through literature review,consulting experts to collect comments,pre testing items and determine the expression,reliability and validity test,complete the development of the influencing factors of the questionnaire;(3)Analysis results and determination model.This study through a series of statistical analysis methods,one by one to verify the research hypotheses,and modify the hypothesis model to determine key factors of learning effect and their relations of factors;(4)Research and verification of the case.Through the quantitative research results show that the learning community is the most influential factor,so,choose this factor as the research focus.Through the comparative study of the two group of learning community network collaborative learning process and interview learners to analysis the specific effects of the factors,and put forward some suggestions.The conclusions of this study are:(1)Constructing the model of network collaborative between influencing factors and learning effect;(2)Among the internal factors,self-efficacy and learning motivation have significant positive influence on the learning effect,and the influence degree of the former than the latter.The negative psychology on learning effect has a significant negative impact.Self-efficacy has a significant positive effect on learning motivation,negative psychology has a significant negative effect on learning motivation;(3)Among the external factors,learning community,learning resources,and learning leadership have a positive impact on the learning effect,and the influence degree is attenuated,learning effect is not obvious;(4)Learning community factors reflected in collaborative learning main problems includes interactive content of shallow,low frequency,depth is not enough,the formation of community homogenization phenomenon is serious,this study has four suggestions are put forward include increased mutual evaluation mechanism,in turn report,play the role of team leader and the use of heterogeneous grouping.
