A novel justice-based linear model for optimal learner group formation in computer-supported collaborative learning environments

作者:

Highlights:

• Learner group formation problem in CSCL was mathematically modeled.

• All possible problem requirements were able to be effectively added to the model.

• The proposed linear model was optimally solvable in a reasonable time.

• The concept of justice in the context of the problem was introduced and applied.

• Learner satisfaction and knowledge levels were enhanced via the new approach.
