Challenges of online collaborative learning among special needs university students by Hidayu Shafie, Ireena Nasiha Ibnu, Noori, Abdullah, Nurhilleny Rosly, Nadia Anuar, Nur Husna Serip Mohamad

“…However, a predominant disadvantage of online learning is the limited opportunity for students to have face to face interaction with educators and peers. In contrast to able-bodied students, online collaborative learning among special needs students (SNS) has not been closely examined and their experience has been minimally evidenced in the current body of literature. …”
