    This article explores how social learning perspectives can be used in the design, development, and implementation of Web-based learning environments (WBLEs). They believe there is an important relationship between perceived sense of community and perceived learning processes, because from a social learning perspective, it is important to create and sustain a sense of community within WBLEs. One way to do this is to provide diverse opportunities for social-peer interaction, e.g. group collaboration and communication.
