I'd like to let you know about this report below. The report provides a summary of the existing research about collaboration in learning.
A thorough review of the literature on using computers to support collaborative learning shows that reality is more complicated. Facilitating successful computer supported collaborative learning (CSCL) is neither easy nor simple. It can be full of pitfalls, and, to succeed, CSCL requires careful design and structure. Successfully implementing CSCL requires careful planning, preparation, and effort on the part of both students and teachers.
Included in this report are more than 125 hyperlinks to online resources about collaborative learning.
