The main purpose of this survey is to investigate the effectiveness of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) in the teaching of Modern Greek in Lyceum. The survey was carried out in the form of a field experiment, with one experimental group and one control group. An didactic intervention in the form of a training scenario was carried out. Fifty (50) students of the Second Class of Lyceum of the Prefecture of Attica were the sample of the survey. The survey was conducted from 10 October 2016 to 20 December 2016 and lasted thirteen hours. The results of the research revealed that, after the experiment, there was a positive change in the attitudes of the experimental group's students regarding the use and utility of the computer.

Many studies investigate the effects of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) and also explore how learning processes and social interaction contribute to learning outcomes in online learning environments. This study provides an appropriate design of web-supported collaborative learning (CL) with teacher’s initiation and self-regulated learning (SRL), and demonstrates the effects of this design on improving students’ involvement and helping students attain course goals in a blended course. The authors conducted an experiment with an intervention of web-supported CL with initiation and SRL in a course titled ‘Applied Information Technology: Networking’ that included 112 sophomores from two classes at an academic university in Taiwan. The class of web-supported CL with initiation and SRL was the experimental group, and online CL without initiation or SRL served the control group. The results illustrate that web-supported CL with initiation and SRL could significantly improve students’ involvement in this course. In addition, interviewed students also expressed their positive appreciation for web-supported CL with initiation and SRL. The authors expect the innovative learning activities and teaching method in this study could provide insights for online teachers.

The present study aimed to investigate the effects of geometry instruction activities conducted in nature based on modeling, game-based, and cooperative learning methods on achievement, mathematical motivation, and visual mathematical literacy perceptions of third-grade elementary school students. The present study is a quantitative study conducted with a pre-test/post-test experimental design with a control group. The study was conducted with 61 students (35 students in the experimental group and 26 students in the control group). Modeling-, game-, and collaborative learning-based activities were conducted with the students in the experimental group. It was determined that the achievements of students who were instructed with modeling-based activities in geometry were high when compared to that of the students instructed with collaborative learning- and game-based methods, and those in the control group where no intervention was applied. This group was followed by the game-based and collaborative learning groups. Based on the variable of motivation, the mean motivation of the students in the modeling group was higher when compared to that of the students in the collaborative learning, game-based, and conventional instruction groups. This group was followed by the collaborative and game-based learning groups. Also, based on the visual mathematical literacy perception variable, the mean visual mathematics literacy perception of the students in the collaborative learning group was higher when compared to that of the students in the groups where the modeling, game-based, and conventional instruction methods were used. This group was followed by the modeling and game-based learning groups.

In this paper the efficiency of collaborative learning of functions, of the functions with parameters, in GeoGebra environment is analyzed. The research was conducted during the calculus course at the University of Novi Sad, Serbia, with the students with two groups of students, major physics and chemistry. The students in the experimental group learned in small, four member groups, formed by using Kagan’s (1994) principles, and the students in the control group learned individually. The students from both groups learned in GeoGebra environment. Their work is compared and analyzed.

The Subject

Nowadays, education requires changes in the teaching and learning processes, through the implementation of innovative and motivating pedagogical actions, owing to the existing needs in society. Education, owing to the current needs of society, requires changes in the teaching and learning processes through the implementation of innovative and motivating pedagogical actions. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the collaborative method, based on the Harry Potter theme, with respect to the traditional method in the first year of Obligatory Secondary Education for the learning of geometric figures in the subject of mathematics. For this purpose, a quasi-experimental, quantitative, descriptive, and correlational study has been designed, using a standardized questionnaire as a technique to collect information. The sample is composed of 236 students from the first year of Obligatory Secondary Education distributed in eight groups (four control and four experimental) from a public high school in the city of Cádiz (Spain). The tests carried out show that collaborative learning generates improvements in the attitudes and mathematical dimensions. Therefore, the collaborative method, developed by means of the Harry Potter theme for students in the first year of Compulsory Secondary Education in the subject of mathematics, causes a better attitude of the student towards the teaching and learning process. Furthermore, it facilitates the acquisition of mathematical contents related to geometry, which does not directly affect the students’ grades because, although those of the experimental group are better than those obtained by the control group, the differences between the two are minimal.

The present study aims to investigate the efficacy of the collaborative learning method on the translation skills of students at the undergraduate level through a new model developed by the researchers. To this end, a pre-/post-test control group research design was followed to obtain empirical results in the translation of medical texts. The study group consisted of 60 undergraduate translation students in Turkey. Thirty students in the control group were instructed by using conventional training methods and each student worked individually. The completed translation was then evaluated by the instructor, as commonly applied in undergraduate translation programmes. The other 30 subjects in the experimental group were instructed through the collaborative learning method. The students participated in teamwork and undertook various roles such as terminologists, translators, proof-readers, and peer editors to check the final work. At the end of the three-week training, the difference between the translation performance scores of the two groups was found statistically significant in favour of the experimental group. The findings demonstrate the significant contribution of the collaborative learning method to the undergraduate students as this method provides them with an environment to improve the necessary translation skills for their future careers in terms of adopting different roles other than translators.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of Collaborative learning strategies in online learning during distance learning. The method used is an experiment with a pretest-posttest research design. The online media used is the zoom meeting application. There are two groups, namely the experimental group and the control group which were selected randomly and have been tested for normality and homogeneity tests. The experimental group is the group that is given a collaborative learning strategy, while the control group uses the conventional method. The data analysis technique used is a test technique. Based on the results of the study, the N-gain score of the experimental group (collaborative) was 63.6904 or 63.7% and was categorized as quite effective. The average normalized gain (N-gain) of the experimental group students' learning outcomes was 0.63 which was included in the medium category. This means that the application of collaborative learning strategies is sufficient to improve student learning outcomes on the subject of Ideas and Business Opportunities in class X SMAN 82 Jakarta.
