An Internet learning environment for collaborative notetaking

An Internet learning environment was created to allow users to write studying notes in collaboration. Effective study procedure was incorporated into the system to promote collaboration among users. The procedure is as follows: the members (1) preview learning materials and ask questions about the important information the materials contained; (2) discuss and divide the materials into a few shares; (3) read the assigned materials to answer the questions raised, and write the answers on notes; and (4) review and discuss the notes took by each member, and integrate the notes into an unified copy. A questionnaire study was conducted to collected users´ attitudes toward the system.
