Abstract

The current research aims at identifying the effect of different patterns of sharing in the electronic learning environment on developing information awareness and social interaction skills among students of the University of Hail. The research sample consisted of 18 students from the Department of Computer Science at the Community College-University of Hail, who was chosen and distributed randomly on three groups, the researchers designed the participatory e-learning environment model, and in light of the activity theory. The research experiment lasted three weeks. The students of the three groups studied the proposed scientific content through the “Black Board” learning management system, then the students performed an activity participatory implementation of the activities and tasks of the scientific content through the use of a cooperative learning strategy, with a different style of participation, as the first group students participated in the synergistic sharing pattern through the Web 2.0 tool (Twitter), and the second experimental group students with the parallel sharing style through the Web 2.0 tool (Video Sharing), and the students of the third experimental group in the style of sequential sharing through the Web 2.0 tool (Wiki). The results showed the effectiveness of the three types of participation (synergistic-parallel-serial) in developing information awareness and social interaction skills in favor of post-performance. On the other hand, the two modes of participation (synergistic and sequential) were superior to that of (parallel) in the development of cognitive achievement of information awareness. More Attention should be considered in designing and producing digital courses based on participatory learning systems.

Highlights

  • The current research aims at identifying the effect of different patterns of sharing in the electronic learning environment on developing information awareness and social interaction skills among students of the University of Hail

  • With different styles of participation, individual learner and learners through e-learning platforms as they are content with watching only, which may affect their learning outcomes, and those studies showed that sharing between teacher and learner without teacher guidance through participatory web editors contributes to a decrease in interaction between learners, and the following format explains the differences between the roles of the teacher and the learner in the traditional learning environment and the participatory learning environment

  • The fourth stage: Evaluation Assessment of learning outcomes: The students' learning outcomes were evaluated through a cognitive achievement test for the topics of information awareness, a measure of social interaction skills, and a recording of learning outcomes
