Collaboration in an online environment

1. Introduction

Online collaboration in higher education has become an integral part of the modern learning and teaching process. Students and teachers are increasingly using digital platforms and tools such as e-learning systems, collaborative document editing tools, virtual classrooms and communication applications that enable the exchange of ideas, coordinated task solving and continuous interaction. Such tools not only facilitate the organization of work, but also encourage the development of key academic and professional competencies such as teamwork, critical thinking and effective communication.
