Here, students will also be having the ability to post forum to ask questions and solving doubts. The posts can be liked, commented and shared to allow interaction and information exchange between students. Students will be able to view a pie chart of academic performance to quickly identify one’s performance and preference so that they are able to choose the better assignment teammates to work together with. Furthermore, preferences can be selected including age, gender, current homestay and more based on the students’ preferences. They can select all to match regarding of the criteria where they will all be able to view the student academic performance of another student. Student academic performance included attendance which occupy 20%, lecturers’ review and students’ review with both occupying 40%.
