Collaborative Learning: Design and Reflections in a Web Programming Course

Abstract

Collaborative learning enhances learning achievement and encourages student's responsibility of learning. Student Team Achievement Divisions (STAD) activity is a Collaborative learning in which small groups of students with different learning abilities work together to achieve common learning goal. In this work, design and reflections of STAD activity carried out for teaching a Web Programming course will be discussed. Relevantly, the quantitative and qualitative analysis results obtained by carrying out STAD activity demonstrates the positive impact of this methodology suitable for teaching a Web Programming course.
