Existing CSCL applications are mostly research-based and are not available for use. Through a survey on the needs for CSCL in Malaysia, it is confirmed that CSCL application is needed but the available one could not support CL activities. This paper discusses CSCL study in Malaysia, especially the relationship between user involvement and type of CSCL application needed. In particular, the CSCL application that could associate existing knowledge among students to build new knowledge for their better understanding and problem solving skills.
