The CoWeb can also be used as a case library where students with high grades on a project can post their project for future students to review. These projects serve as positive examples and sources for project ideas. I can point out what the students learned from these projects. The CoWeb is also used for collaborative writing projects. In classes as diverse as Anatomy and Literature, groups of students edit pages and review and critique each other's pages.
Teachers can oversee the process and comment where useful.
The CoWeb makes the group editing and review process easy and workable, no matter what kinds of computers that the students and teachers are using. Based on a survey developed by Guzdial and his team, students have commented that the CoWeb was easier to use than communicating with group members via email or newsgroups. They found new value in learning from their peers. Several students spontaneously wrote and posted songs about their classes to the CoWeb, and some even created an adventure game about one of their assignments. Guzdial has found the collaborative learning process on the CoWeb where students learn from each other is a good way to get undergraduate students thinking and sharing ideas.
