Delivering on the e-learning promise: A case for a learning environment that enables collaborative online problem solving (COPS) Vol. 2, No. 1, ISSN : 1832-8342
by Sylvia Lauretta Edwards, Jason Watson, Ann Farrell, Robyn Nash, from Queensland University of Technology, Australia
Abstract:
".....It argues for a collaborative online problem solving
environment (known colloquially as COPS) that will combine the
problem-centred and collaborative dimensions of learning. The
developmental work of COPS seeks to go beyond current online learning
and teaching resources offered by most learning management systems, to
provide a framework and system to create and deploy environments where
teams of student learners can collaborate, engage, grapple with and
seek to make sense of authentic problems within an online environment.
It seeks to do so by creating problem-centred ’learning designs’ that
can be integrated with face to face teaching to bridge the gap between
the classroom and real world experience. "
