Abstract
In this new context, Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) emerges as an innovative pedagogical support. Collaborative learning consists of small groups working together to complete academic tasks, which involve a range of objectives, such as searching for facts, applying skills, concepts and principles, problem solving and creative thinking. The teacher acts as the coordinator, setting guidelines, encouraging cooperation, reviewing performance and uniting the groups (Woodbine, 1997). Collaborative learning works positively in promoting inter-group relations, and can help to overcome barriers to friendship, interaction and achievement of academically less able students, and can increase self-esteem.
