Technology Digital with Collaborative Online Learning

Abstract

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has changed education management from being classroom-based learning to online learning on a digital platform instead. The design of learning activities is now adapted to learners by integrating digital technology to encourage learner participation. This has been done according to the 21^st-century learning management approach, which develops the thinking process for learners to seek knowledge and choose their preferred method of learning.

The goal is to design online collaborative learning activities which are appropriate, creative and which also incorporate digital technology in five processes; First, the teacher (or instructor) still plays an integral role in presenting the learner with a range of lesson topics and learners then choose their lesson according to their interests; Second, the learner meets, plans and creates an agreed upon goal, determines the scope of the topic as well as methods for conducting and scheduling joint studies; Third, the learner is responsible for conducting research studies and discussing the group's information together; Forth, the learner presents what has been learned and shares them in class; and In the final process, teacher and learner discuss together and ask questions, as well as summarize the lessons and evaluate the learning outcomes together.

All of the processes, the instructor serves to give advice and encourage students to mindfully and continually create a thought process, which would lead to creativity in producing workpieces or bodies of work and knowledge to their full potential.
