Recent rapid developments in information and communication technology have particularly facilitated social pervasive interactions with the potential ability to bring about great outcomes for collaborative learning activities. Classic web based learning environments utilized in online or blended learning centers inadequately support learners to play active roles in learning processes. In response to this demand, this paper introduces DoosMooc, an integrated social learning environment equipped by a series of modified or redesigned actions, interfaces, representations and workflows which enable learners' communications and collaborative activities. Using the environment in an academic blended learning center has revealed the significant roles played by DoosMooc main features such as formal and semantic course contents, peer reviewed posting, portfolio, and leader box in facilitating students' social interactions leading to more qualified engagements in course learning activities.
