Abstract :
Group learning is an essential component for organizing cooperative learning or collaborative learning, and it is important for implementing CSCL as well. In this paper, we introduce an empirical approach for simulating a group learning model based on its influencing factors which have been extracted from our previous study. The architecture and a generic model of a group learning process are presented, and a model of a group learning process is devised for a blended e-learning environment.
