Results and Discussion
As well known for the influences of students’ learning motivation on Web-based collaborative learning,
80 students were divided into two groups (a controlled group and an experimental group). All students need to
write down the learning motivation scales after and before the employment of different learning strategies. The
scores of learning motivation scales were collected and analyzed by using paired-sample t-test and ANCOVA.
Table 1 showed the paired sample t-test of the pre-test and post-test learning motivation from the
controlled and the experimental groups. The results indicated that students in both two groups significantly promote their learning motivations after learning on the Web page in this study. This finding was consistent
with previous studies which suggested that the Web-based learning could help students to learn more quickly
and conveniently, and have significantly improved students’ engagement and motivation in learning (Lo, Chan,
& Yeh, 2012; Wentzel & Watkins, 2002).
