The aim of this paper is to report findings from an on-going research using Computersupported
Collaborative Learning in an ESL classroom in Malaysia. Collaboration is the
act of working together to produce a piece of work. Collaborative learning deals with
instructional methods that seek to promote learning through collaborative efforts
among students working on a given task. Class based CL fits well with the philosophy
of teaching: working together, building together, learning together, changing together
and improving together. Computer-supported CL (CSCL) has an impact on the
development of deep thinking about ideas as students are engaged in writing rather
than talking. By doing so, they have more time to think about the responses; able to
engage in developing arguments; have time to follow up references and read literature,
etc. Selected students from Malaysia were asked to work collaboratively (through email)
with students from the USA. At the end of the collaborative activities they were
expected to complete written projects. The students were interviewed on their
perceptions on this innovative way of learning. The findings indicate that the students
have responded positively towards computer supported collaborative learning.
