Collaborative learning and its relationship with the classmates affective support with the COLLES questionnaire application

Abstract

The main objective is to know the relationship of the Affective Support factor of the Constructivist On-Line Learning Environment Survey (COLLES) questionnaire with collaborative learning. The validation of an educational model mediated by an LMS Moodle, based on collaboration, was proposed, which began through a process of validation and approval of the questionnaire. The instrument was applied in a section of 26 students of the 5th grade of primary education, in a pilot program in the Moquegua region of Peru. The following procedures were followed: first, an exploratory factor analysis was performed with IBM-SPSS and in a second phase, a confirmatory factor analysis using the PLS-SEM methodology, which is a multivariate method called Modeling of Structural Equations with Partial Least Squares. The results confirmed that Affective Support is the determining factor for collaborative learning, mediated by an educational model B-learning.
