Collaborative Online Learning: Issues, Interactions And Building Educational Communities

Authors : Laraoui Nour El Houda . Ghoul Zahia .

Abstract

Abstract This paper examines the impact of digital environments on the collaborative learning experiences of language science students at the Université Frères Mentouri Constantine 1, specifically through the use of Messenger and Facebook. Analyzing a corpus of 100 conversations from the 2023-2024 academic year, the study highlights how digital tools facilitate structured exchanges, enhance engagement, and foster co-construction of knowledge. The findings suggest that online interactions, supported by conversational norms and multimodality (including both synchronous and asynchronous exchanges), promote an effective learning dynamic. The study concludes that these practices contribute to the emergence of autonomous educational communities, ultimately transforming traditional teaching methods.
