- Summary:
-
Investigating the common perception that collaborative writing in composition classes is being used primarily with finished products, an informal survey was conducted in which writing instructors who used collaborative learning estimated the amount of time they allowed for each stage of the writing process (Prewriting/Invention, Focusing/Thesis, Writing, Revision, Editing, and Proofreading). Subjects were 71 composition instructors, including faculty from Western Illinois University as well as other secondary and university instructors. The results showed that for teachers using collaborative learning: (1) collaboration for prewriting is being used most by college teachers (81%) and revision most by secondary teachers (89%); (2) collaboration is used least by both groups at the writing or drafting stage (49% college and 54% secondary); (3) secondary teachers use collaboration at more stages of the writing process than do university instructors; and (4) secondary teachers exert more control over grouping of their students.
