From Citation 1 , "One of the lacunas of virtual learning is the lack of opportunities of collaborative learning with peers, development of social sensitivity, and team building social interaction" The social interaction that is a foundational part of schooling, is necessary for students to thrive, especially when it comes to the younger students.Citation 1 , "Classroom teaching is important to encourage and motivate collaborative learning also. Collaborative learning increases student’s self-awareness about how students learn and enables them to learn more easily and effectively, transforming them into keen learners inside and beyond the classroom."
