This article outlines the effect of the collaborative educational tool ViLLE when learning business mathematics in higher education. ViLLE validates students' answers during the assessment process and provides immediate feedback, enabling students to receive feedback and guidance about the correctness of their answers. The learning results in the business mathematics course in Turku University of Applied Sciences are used for the study. The effect of the ViLLE tool is researched by quasi-experimental study using the 2013 course as the control group and 2014 course as the treatment group. This research confirmed that the usage of the ViLLE tool improved the students' learning of business mathematics.
