Abstract

This paper aims to explore the concepts of collaboration and cooperation in game-based learning. Game play requires certain kinds of competition whether it is competing against other players or simply against the game itself. More importantly, as social games have become popular in recent years, social activities, such as collaborative gaming, have drawn educators' attention to game-based learning. However, a conceptual differentiation between collaboration and cooperation should be identified and applied in game-based learning, so that learning outcomes can be attained effectively. In this regard, the definitions, principles, and cases of both collaboration and cooperation in game-based learning will be explored and discussed in this short paper.
