Background of the Study
Collaborative learning encourages students to work together to solve problems, share knowledge, and achieve common academic goals. In Jimeta, Yola North Local Government Area, Adamawa State, traditional teaching methods that focus on individual learning have limited opportunities for students to collaborate and engage actively with their peers. The rise of online learning platforms presents an opportunity to foster collaborative learning environments where students can interact, share resources, and work on group projects regardless of geographical constraints.
Online platforms that support collaborative learning enable students to engage in discussions, share study materials, and collaborate on assignments or projects in real time. These platforms can incorporate features such as discussion boards, group workspaces, file sharing, and real-time messaging, which facilitate interaction among students. The development of such an online platform would be built using Moodle or Google Classroom, offering a user-friendly environment for students and teachers to collaborate efficiently.

In Jimeta, students often lack the necessary tools to collaborate effectively on academic tasks. The traditional learning methods that are primarily teacher-centered do not provide enough opportunities for students to work together, hindering their ability to engage fully with the content and with each other.
