Improving Students’ Participation and Collaboration With Adjusting Cloud Education Platform During the Real-Time Interactive Class

The purpose of this study was to find a way to promote the collaboration and interaction of students and bring about the growth of learners through feedback while taking advantage of real-time interactive class via video conferencing tools. Although real-time interactive class with using video conferencing tools had great advantages, but there were also limitations of active interaction. To this end, real-time interactive tool and cloud-based educational platform were applied to create cases of learner participation classes and analyze the cases. The convergence of real-time interactive class tools and cloud tools has been able to draw students’ participation and collaboration in non-face-to-face situations, and it can be seen that it is very helpful in creating learner-centered educational activities based on communication and interaction with students. Through this, the application of the cloud-based educational platform in real-time interactive class could lead students to participate and collaborate even in non-face-to-face situations.
