Promoting Gender Equality in Educational Settings: The Role of Computer Supported Cooperative Learning

Öz

New media makes possible new forms of collaboration and interaction in educational settings. Group-based instructional methods, as collaborative and cooperative learning can be mediated by specific computer-based applications and methods.

In this article arguments are presented for differentiating collaborative and cooperative learning methods on offline and computer-mediated environments as well. In comparison to CSCL (Computer Supported Collaborative Learning), there is a well-established need for further research into the areas of Computer Supported Cooperative learning (CSCpL), with special attention paid for its impact on peer relationships in general, and social inclusion or reducing gender differences in particular.
