AB  -           Creating a Collaborative Learning Environment in On-line                           Engineering EducationA number of strategies were employed to create a collaborative learning environmentwithin the reviewed on-line engineering master’s degree. This engineering degree wasspecifically designed to be collaborative, distance and for working professionals. Thediscussed collaborative learning methods can be applied across a broad range of technicaland engineering education, including both on-campus and off campus programs. Theprimary methods of creating a collaborative environment include facilitating increasedinteraction among students, creating an environment of collaboration rather thancompetition, capitalizing on the students’ interest and specialized knowledge, andeffective use of team projects and technical presentations. Interaction among the studentsis increased due to face-to-face interaction at residency, life web-conferences, groupprojects, weekly assigned discussions, and availability of small group student initiatedweb conferences. A collaborative environment is achieved by rewarding contributions todiscussion forums and receiving an individual grade component for contribution to groupprojects. Capitalizing on student knowledge and interest is done through well-designeddiscussion forum questions and providing topic freedom within a framework for groupprojects. End result, the referenced master’s degree program has a greater than 90 percentgraduation rate, the students form friends and business associates they have for life, theprogram has filled to capacity for the last 3 years, and the majority of new students werereferred to the program by a current student or alumni.
