Application of the Collaborative Project Based Learning Model using Moodle in Higher Education

Abstract

Higher education's learning process uses the Collaborative Project-Based Learning (CPBL) Model, which 
is 
implemented into the Modular Object Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment (MOODLE). This 
application program can change learning media web-based. The CPBL model is learning that uses 
problems with projects that can be identified in scenarios to increase knowledge and understanding of 
the learning process. The CPBL Learning Model using Moodle has excellent potential in higher education 
because it provides knowledge construction and skills development related to interactions that result in 
a more essential learning process built to overcome problems in the teaching and learning process 
educators. This study aims to implement e-learning with the moodle-based CPBL model and Virtual 
Remote Labs (VRLs). Based on a conceptual review of the CPBL type of learning model, this paper 
explores Virtual Remote Labs (VRLs) using Moodle for concrete experiences in higher education. In the 
Moodle application, there are several learning activities to form groups using the CPBL model syntax. The 
Moodle application plugin is designed to upload and deliver learning materials, face-to-face, and 
practical work with VRLs using the CPBL model syntax in universities. This study requires careful planning, 
dynamics, sufficient to form collaborative groups and the relevance of student practice related to the 
use of VRLs technology with Moodle for changing teaching roles and autonomy in the management of 
learning in universities.
