ABSTRACT
This study aims to identify the perceptions of female student teachers enrolled in the Primary
Classroom Teacher Program (PCTP) at a university in Saudi Arabia. It will focus on Collaborative
Online Project-Based Learning (COPBL), its advantages, challenges facing the implementation of
this strategy, and provide suggestions and recommendations to overcome these challenges. A
mixed-method research design was used to analyze the data. Questionnaires were used to collect
quantitative data from fifty-five students, and nine of them were interviewed to collect qualitative
data. The interview sample was intentionally chosen based on the diversity of responses in the
questionnaires. The results of this study revealed that there is a consensus between the
perceptions of the study sample in the questionnaires and interviews. Participants showed positive
perceptions about COPBL. Researchers presented some recommendations and suggestions at the
end of this study.
