Abstract
This study examines the development, adoption and use of collaborative technologies in a project-based environment. It focuses on the requirements and opportunities to enable collaborative learning through Web 2.0 technologies. The multidisciplinary research was conducted through a design science research methodology by incorporating design and learning theories to inform the development of a computer-mediated learning platform. The research was conducted through the integration of multiple theories and multiple research methodologies in a design-based study that integrates pedagogical design principles and computer-supported collaborative learning to support collaborations and interactions among students.
The study was conducted through two phases of research: development of the learning environment and subsequent evaluation of the learning platform. During the first phase of the research, a computer-supported collaborative learning environment was developed. In the subsequent evaluation of the learning platform, a theoretical model was used to investigate the adoption behaviour of students for the computer-supported collaborative platform.
