Web-based
collaborative learning differs in the context of the structure, nature, and
activities of the learning environment, due to which there has been a tendency
towards learning about the principles of knowledge-building and organization
like structural, cognitive and behavioral theory.

We find that
there is a lack of entrance and academic design in each of these areas, and
therefore, in order to design programs based on the web, learning strategies in
the light of educational principles should be learned.

collaborative learning method relieves students from the fear of studying and
fears the traditional teaching method. This method is unique to the teacher in
thinking and students can easily:
- Exchange
ideas among other students and learn all the perspectives that lead to
discovering new and important solutions and results. - Enhance
the spirit of cooperation among individuals, and create a fun atmosphere that
gives the student comfort. - Give each
student a chance to ask his friends and use them instead of the teacher when he
needs them.
The method
of collaborative learning is also used in many areas not only teaching,
and it is also one of the most important methods in collective psychotherapy,
generally, in offline mode. But now collaborative learning has also become
very popular in online mode.

in vain and never comment useless.

Cognitive Theory:
The process
of learning includes the use of memory, motivation, and thinking. This plays an
important role in the learning of the individual. Therefore, the learner tends
to focus on his education and interest in active participation.

- The
learner’s strategies allow the learner to understand and manipulate
information. The learner uses his sensory systems to load information in the
form of sensations, so the design of the screen components (text size, color,
pictures, drawings, etc.) must be considered. - Learn the
purpose of the lesson so that the learner can process information around the
world. - Encourage
the learner to use the skills of knowledge to help him in learning, because of
the positive results in remembering and learning. - Organize
information in conceptual maps to prevent overload during information
processing.

Participatory
Learning: In
the sense that this type of learning discusses the meaning presented through
more than one point of view and conceptual growth comes through the involvement
of position or concept in response to views and ideas.

on strong evidence that reflects the learners’ sense of the real world.

Social Cognitive Theory:
Social
cognitive theory emphasizes that the process of learning is a constructional
process to create the new knowledge structure and new processes and that the
learner builds his own knowledge of social interactions through direct
interaction between learners while interacting with situational learning
events, some of which are termed as situational learning, that is, social plans
of origin.

applying this theory to a collaborative web-based communication technology

- Build
knowledge rather than teach it to the learner - Build a
learning environment in a sequential and meaningful way - Emphasis on
cooperative and participatory action - Ensure that
activities are continuously modified - Provide
experiences in the form of real positions - Exchange
information and answer questions based on the method of knowledge in processing
information - Give the
learner the opportunity to make decisions in learning goals.
Web-based collaborative
learning Methods and strategies
Web-based collaborative learning can be used effectively to encourage individual participation in education and facilitate student learning performance, build in multiple opportunities for discussion and consensus and enhance the capacity for creativity.
Web-based collaborative learning is applicable to all grade levels and class sizes.
- The teacher
shall specify the members of the group of up to 500 individuals. - Give each
member of the group a number known to him. - Each group
is called a given name or given a title to know it. - Each group
is given a topic to discuss and discuss all the members of the group to ask
them some questions after they have deviated from the discussion and put ideas
among them. - The teacher
identifies an individual in the group who represents and speaks on her behalf,
but sometimes the teacher prefers to speak to all individuals and engage in
conversation and discussion to ensure that all individuals understand the
subject. - After
completing the discussion with all members of the group, the teacher asks a
code of the questions that were asked them with their answers. - The teacher
should determine how successful he is to achieve the desired goals of group
formation to implement cooperative learning.
Conclusion
The method
of Web-based collaborative learning is one of the most successful methods at
all, especially in the materials that need a lot of discussion and
communication between teacher and students, this method facilitated discussion
among them without causing chaos and wasting time.
