Abstract

Cooperative or collaborative learning is a type of active learning in which students have to work in groups. This paper aims to identify and to present the current research on cooperative and collaborative learning in Engineering and Computing that is available since 2012. A systematic mapping study was therefore performed to classify the selected studies using the following criteria: learning technique, undergraduate or graduate program, and research type. A total of 2999 studies were identified, of which only 112 studies were selected for this review. According to the analysis, problem-based learning is the technique with more studies published in Engineering and Computing.
