Collaborative learning is a strategy used within special interest groups of learners & aims to improve their learning experience. This type of learning strategy uses small special-interest group tasks &activities as a learning experience. Each member is responsible for learning new information and skills, and at the same time, assisting teammates in learning.
It involves the assignment of tasks &projects to a team by an employer. The team members have a clear structure of what is to be done &stay together until the project is completed. It can range from a few hours to several weeks.
This type of learning involves quickly forming teams for short periods to complete a small task at hand. They require no prior planning &have very little structure. They can help bring closure to a day’s work or a small project.
It is the most common type of Collaborative learning implemented in organizations. It involves long-term special interest groups that can last up to a year or more with members giving each other support, encouragement, &assistance.
If you are trying to use the same collaborative learning strategies repeatedly with no results, try some of these with clear examples of how you can implement them:
This strategy works by having two parties go head-to-head in a debate. The members form two groups, with one opposing and the other supporting the proposition.
This strategy involves groups discussing a topic that each member has had access to, maybe through watching a video, listening to a speaker during a meeting.
An organization should provide many opportunities for groups to teach and learn from each other. A collaborative community creates an environment that enhances working together to solve problems.
Having a Collaborative community enables you to bring a few groups together & provide them with a problem to solve. You can get a few groups &give each a challenge as to what changes are best for an existing project.
Every group contain members having specialized expertise &experiences. Moreover, the different groups can also share some of their concepts,ideas, &best practices with other groups;
