When using an online learning management system for collaborative learning, the instructor should provide technical training by presenting video tutorials, online training modules or online workshops<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Liu, L. & Lee, W|first=|date=2012|title=Using an online learning management system as collaborative media to support adult learning: needs assessment|url=|journal=International Journal of Technology in Teaching and Learning|volume=8(2)|pages=135-145|via=}}</ref>
==== Mobile Computer Supported Collaborative Learning ====
Mobile CSCL (mCSCL) is beneficial to students’ learning achievements, attitude and interactions<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Sung, Y.T., Yang, J.M. & Lee, H.Y.|first=|date=2017|title=The Effects of Mobile-Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning: Meta-Analysis and Critical Synthesis|url=|journal=Review of Educational Research|volume=87|pages=769-805|via=}}</ref>. The suggested design principles for mCSCL include:
1. An idea group size is around 3 to 4 people.
2. A duration between 1 to 4 weeks demonstrate better effects
=== Professional Teaching Community ===
Professional teacher communities are positively related to student learning, teacher learning, teacher practice and school culture. Teacher collaboration is a significant element of these communities. Reflection‐oriented tasks (such as reflection on teaching performance in individual writing, peer feedback, and collective writing) stimulated participation, and in combination with task structure also interaction in these communities<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Ditte Lockhorst, Wilfried Admiraal & Albert Pilot|first=|date=2010|title=CSCL in teacher training: what learning tasks lead to collaboration?|url=|journal=Technology, Pedagogy and Education|volume=19:1|pages=63-78|via=}}</ref>. Furthermore, structured tasks(such as crossword puzzles, the path to come to a solution is unambiguous and answers can be immediately checked) which required critical reflection on personal experiences and perspectives triggered task‐related communication and a deep level of information exchange.
=== Distance Learning ===
The European Union Comenius fund sponsored FISTE project which is concerned with the educational use of information and communication technologies (ICTs), specifically with the development and dissemination of a new pedagogical strategy for distance learning through in-service teacher education in schools across Europe<ref>Thorsteinsson, G. & Page, T (2007) Computer Supportive Communication Learning Approach to Improve In-Service Teachers’ Education in Europe. FISTE - A Future Way For In-Service Teacher Training Across Europe.</ref>. This project uses the online Virtual Learning Environment platform BSCW as a Computer Supportive Communication Learning tool to facilitate the way the participants work together. This work has involved schools and teacher training providers, building culturally different work in in-service teacher education in the participating countries. The value of using CSCL supported technology for in-service teacher education in Europe lies in the concept of hinterland. Cross-national courses like the FISTE would be difficult to run without this technological approach.
