Abstract
The main purpose of this survey is to explore whether Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) constitutes a good practice in the teaching of Literature in Lyceum and in the cross-curricular approach of the specific subject. More specifically, the contribution of the digital platform web 2.0, wiki pbworks – along with the use of subsidiary software applications – is explored in the promotion of collaborative learning and the special skills it develops among students. The method that was used is the field experiment, working both with an experimental group (25 students) and with a control group (25 students). The outcome of the findings, regards the promotion of collaborative learning, the formation of a more positive attitude towards collaboration proved to be successful with regard to the use of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning and the application of the digital platform of collaboration web 2.0, wiki pbworks.
Highlights
Computer Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL), which is an evolution of educational technology and is based on the social theories of social constructivism and socio-cultural theories (Koschmann, 1996), has been implemented in the last few years, through the use of web 2.0 applications.In the field of education today, Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) has made its presence felt, and so far, surveys show that its use can bring positive results to the learning process
This study aims to fill this gap as it involves applying the CSCL method to a language course within the classroom
6.1 Research Question 1: Attitudes of Experimental Group Students Related to Working in Groups (Before and After the Didactic Intervention)
Summary
In the field of education today, CSCL has made its presence felt, and so far, surveys show that its use can bring positive results to the learning process Examples of such investigations are those of Fu, Chu & Kang (2013) who reviewed a web 2.0 platform (wiki) as a computer-supported collaborative learning environment (CSCL) in the final grade of basic education. In the Greek educational reality, surveys carried out are smaller in number and limited in range They mainly relate to the exploration of the potential of a web 2.0 platform (wiki) in the creation of science simulation programs, the use of the same platform in e-learning, its influence in learning through two organized activities, synthetic work and web collaboration (Altanopoulou, 2011; Chouliara, Frentzou-Rodokanaki, & Antoniou, 2011; Mitala, 2008; Roussinos &Tzimogiannis, 2011; Syvaka & Ginoudi, 2013). There are very few studies in Greece concerning the use of CSCL during the educational process in the classroom (Geomelou, 2015; Karystinakis, 2012)
