If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants”, Isaak Newton 

The potential of collaborative learning environments has been highlighted from the educators as a dynamic pedagogical strategy, especially after the pandemic isolation. A diverse array of students’ outcomes, such as 21st century skills development, are influenced by the classroom experience when shifting from traditional lectures to group collaborative projects.

However, the ability to work collaboratively with others is not only narrowed into the classroom walls. It is becoming an essential component of contemporary school reform. Common goals, joint work, and interdependence build a community-oriented cultures, partnerships and a school vision.

The short online course “Building a Collaborative Culture Beyond Classroom” is focused not only in sharing good examples and best practices of collaborative activities into the classroom and between students but it also aims to outline several forms of collaboration among educators that can empower them to shift from isolation and private mode of autonomy to an effective collective work.
