This article briefly reviews some of the research that has been carried out at NJIT and elsewhere over the last 25 years that supports this view. It starts with collaborative learning pedagogy, since this is the foundation of a successful learning network.

There were no dQ,%erences between DI and CC groups in terms of decision effectiveness. DI groups required signljicantly more asynchronous meeting time to complete their recommendations and had higher

This research investigates small group collaboration and learning in the context of online exams. Incorporating constructivism and collaborative learning theories, the online Collaborative Exam features students’ active participation in various phases of the exam process through small group activities. The online Participatory Exam features similar processes except that students participate in the exam individually. A large scale field experiment was conducted to compare the two exam structures in terms of learning strategies and exam outcomes. Results show that students in the collaborative exam adopted significantly higher levels of social engagement than those in the participatory exam, learned from other students, and formed a sense of learning community. Areas for future research are briefly discussed.
