The Super-Node Topology in Collaborative Learning

Published:06 October 2021Publication History

ABSTRACT

Incorporating new collaborative learning strategies will help increase students' engagement and improve the learning experience. In this paper, we present a new method of group formation inspired by the super-node topology in peer-to-peer systems. This method proved to enhance students' engagement, productivity, and cognitive skills in group-based assessments.
