5. METHODOLOGY
5.1. The first phase
Collaborative Learning Model with Virtual Team in Ubiquitous Learning Environment using
Creative Problem-solving Process to enhance Creative Thinking and Collaboration Skills with
the following method:
5.1.1 To study, analyze and synthesize documents and former research relevant to the elements
of Ubiquitous learning, Collaborative Learning with virtual team and Creative Problem-Solving
Process. Then, the results thereof were used to set up a conceptual framework in order to develop
a model of Collaborative Learning with virtual team.
5.1.2 To study information about learning management by interviewing the instructors in order
to synthesize the data of learning model and by interviewing the students about their ability to
use information technology and communication for learning, their learning style, and their
cognitive style.
5.1.3 The development of the model of U-CCPS model in this phase was derived by analyzing
the principles of Collaborative Learning with virtual team and Creative Problem-Solving
Process. Then, the results of the study were used to identify U-CCPS model based on the
following components: 1) Input factors, 2) U-CCPS process, 3) Control, 4) Output and
5) Feedback.
5.1.4 To present the U-CCPS model to the advisors for consideration and revision.
5.1.5 To present the U-CCPS model model to the experts for consideration by means of in-depth
interview.
5.1.6 To create the tools for evaluating the suitability of the model of U-CCPS model.
