- The development of collaborative studies in learning has led to a renewed interest in the
field of web-based education. In this experimental study, a highly interactive and
collaborative teaching environment was created using Moodle, a learning management
system with two types of Collaborative Tools (CTs): Standard CT and Advanced CT to
create a virtual learning environment to teach programming languages, Java. 36 subjects
were attending to this study. The experimental study was carried out between 2 different
groups. Each group has 18 subjects who were randomly selected. Group1 used
advanced and group2 used standard collaborative learning tool. The aim of this study
was to find out the student opinions when using an advanced collaborative tool and a
standard collaborative tool. The system developed has enabled students to follow the
lessons in their own places of study, using their own computers. Data was collected at
the end of the experimental study by Student Opinions in Relation to the Used
Collaborative Tool and The Online Learning Opinion Scale instruments. The results
show that the subjects using the standard and the advanced collaborative tool are
interested and willing to try to use a collaborative tool.
