ABSTRACT
Collaborative Learning (CL) has been proven to promote soft skills and has widely implemented in teaching and learning. However, initial study found the lack of soft skills issue
among Malaysian Polytechnic graduates causing the students to face unemployment. It shows that collaboration does not happen naturally in a group. Therefore, this study
proposed Online Project Based Collaborative Learning (OPBCL) to enhanced students’ soft skills. OPBCL was design and developed based on proposed model by integrating
MOODLE Forum with Facebook function and using project-based learning approach. The prototype was designed using ADDIE model. Pilot study was conducted to ensure OPBCL
is reliable and valid. Pre and post-test with non-equivalent control group design were used in implementation and evaluation phase which involves 106 respondents from
Malaysian Polytechnic. The respondents were divided into three groups called Control, Treatment I and Treatment II group where their soft skills are assessed for comparison
between traditional project based learning method (Control), online project based learning using CIDOS platform (Treatment I) and online project based learning using OPBCL
platform (Treatment II). All collected data were analysed using SPSS 19.0 software. Findings from the pre and post soft skill indicated that all groups had positive effects on the
soft skills of the students but in terms of the more successful group, the results showed that Treatment II is more success than Control group followed by Treatment I group. In
conclusion, the proposed OPBCL model has shown an enhancement in students’ soft skills.
