Computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) is an emerging branch of learning science concerned with studying how people can learn together with the help of computers. As an indispensable ingredient, computer mediation evolves through couples of phases, e.g. centralized server, peer-to-peer network, grid computing. Nevertheless, with daily rising trend on requirement's dynamic changes in service, existing models fall short to respond on demand. Thus, in this paper, by taking advantage of cloud computing, we propose a feasible CSCL platform and the experiments show that it can not only fulfill the basic requirement of CSCL, but also respond to learner's dynamic need on demand.
