Abstract

While peer collaboration is the basis for co-learning in many groups, in the classroom the prevailing assumption is that teachers facilitate student learning, through course structure, setting learning tasks and outcomes, presentation, discussion, facilitating small group learning, coaching, and mentoring, among others. Though instructional design models have recognized that learning builds on interactions between learners and their environments (teachers have moved from "sage on the stage" to "guide on the side"), these models tend to focus on individual student learning rather than group learning.
