Abstract
Collaboration becomes an essential competency in the current knowledge society. In this study, a collaborative learning environment was designed to facilitate students in group collaboration. Instructional support strategies of friendship and meaningful learning tasks were applied to promote collaboration. In addition, the online file sharing tool Drive HQ was used to facilitate collaboration. Four classes of students used the learning environment to complete their final project in pairs. Results showed friendship and meaningful learning tasks helped to promote individual accountability and positive interdependence, and the application of progress reports proved useful for collaborating, cooperating and supervising the teaching and learning process. However, additional strategies might be needed for more effective collaboration to take place. Issues involved in this study are discussed.
