Abstract

Group techniques and methods show great promise with respect to the learn effect in CSCL resulting from the perspective of cognitive elaboration, the construction of shared knowledge and the possibility of multiple perspectives. However, previous results in the research of group techniques in online learning were not very extensive. Therefore we started a jigsaw in CSCL in the context of the federal project, "Virtual University of Applied Sciences". During the course of "Environment oriented Management" we tested the different assumptions and suppositions regarding the effect of the jigsaw method. In the case study we focused the evaluation on the degree of collaboration and the influence of the group method. The result was that jigsaw proved to be an efficient method to intensify collaboration in CSCL. To achieve this certain conditions have to be considered. Aspects like group cohesion, individual competence, and awareness, have a significant influence on the result of the jigsaw.
