Methodology of Collaborative Projects Technology on its own provides little meaning. However, when it is put into a curriculum and global context which allows students to participate fully in projects of interest to them and provide a means of empowerment, we tend to see changes within students and their learning outcomes. Students benefit when they are able to participate, communicate and act on what they are involved in. It is then that we can prepare them to participate in and understand the world around them more effectively. Collaborative learning enables small groups to share their expertise and explore in the learning process together.
Teachers facilitate the process and guide learners collaboratively.
It facilitates student centred learning which allows choice in pathways for learning. As mentioned above, there are different modes of communication. A person can send and receive email from anyone with an Internet address. Email can be sent to one or many people and documents, images, sound and multimedia can be attached to the email. Participants can belong to listservs.
