Motivating online collaborative learning

Published: 26 June 2010 Publication History

Abstract

We demonstrate a web-based tool called PeerWise that supports students in the collaborative construction of an annotated test bank of multiple choice questions. PeerWise attempts to exploit the familiarity that students have with social software and the phenomenon of Web 2.0, allowing them to not only construct and answer one another's questions, but also to rate and discuss questions, to subscribe to individual question authors, and to accumulate points as a measure of their contributions.
