Abstract
AbstractIn the context of digitization and the COVID-19 pandemic, online teaching comes more and more into focus of higher education. Various online learning methodologies such as using videos as a teaching method are promising, but can also create problems in the area of social relations or learning habits. The concept of collaborative learning, especially in an online environment, could counteract these problems. This paper presents a collaborative online learning tool that allows students to get together in learning groups to watch educational videos together. Various functions, such as a chat, help students to communicate with each other. A psychological evaluation was conducted to investigate the effects on students. The evaluation demonstrated positive effects of the tool, since it enhances important psychological processes (like flow and cognitive load) within the learning process. Moreover, its usability was rated as good and participants showed a high usage intention for the tool. Nevertheless, further investigations in long-term learning courses are needed to finally confirm the tool’s effectiveness.
