A Study on the Design and Implementation of Web Based Collaborative Learning Systems for Improving Interactivity among Learners

  This study describes the design and implementation of web based collaborative learning system to improve interactivity among learners. Based on suggestions from previous studies, the system is composed of three main parts : the community module, the learning module, and the administrative module. The study participants were 254 university students from two different institutions. They were divided into 43 groups and asked to complete an online TOEIC preparation module using the learning system over 4 weeks. Survey data were collected at three points from each participant-before and 3 weeks after the beginning of the online module and at the completion of the module. The result indicates that the usage of this system is positively related to the learners’ collaborative learning activities, the level of sense of community, and learner satisfaction both at the individual and group levels.
