Abstract

Collaborative learning has emerged as a transformative paradigm in education, reflecting a shift from preparing students solely for individual competitiveness in the job market to fostering teamwork and cooperation. This evolution aligns with the demands of the 21st century, where success depends on the ability to collaborate, share knowledge, and innovate collectively. This paper explores the historical transition from competitive learning frameworks to collaborative methodologies, highlighting the role of knowledge-sharing platforms in this shift. It delves into the theoretical underpinnings, practical implementations, and benefits of collaborative learning, using case studies and examples to illustrate its impact on learners and educators.
