“…In terms of Storch's (2002) models of collaborative writing, Group I, III and IV would be assimilated either to the dominant/dominant or expert/novice patterns of collaboration. The same groups can also fit in the authoritative/responsive and dominant/withdrawn ways of collaborating propounded by Li and Zhu (2013). In Group I, for instance, one participant argued that he could have handled the writing task alone, had it not been an obligation from the writing instructor to only consider group essays.…”

“…In their responses, members of Group II indicated that they planned, worked together on all parts of their writing, contributed more or less equally and amply discussed their ideas until they reached the final version of their essay. In Reither and Vipond's (1989) terms, this form of collaboration would be regarded as co-authoring, which is equivalent to Saunders's (1989) co-writing, Storch's (2002) collaborative interaction or Li and Zhu's (2013) collective contribution/mutual support. The findings from this study also show that students' ways of organizing group writing and collaborating still present some challenges.…”

“…In a similar way, Li and Zhu (2013) conducted research on the students' patterns of online interaction in small writing groups in one Chinese university. Three distinct patterns of interaction among group members were detected, namely collectively contributing/mutually supportive, authoritative/responsive, and dominant/withdrawn.…”

Abstract-This study seeks to explore five 6 th grade EFL learners' major writing problems by analyzing the nature and distribution of their writing errors and it also investigates factors that cause errors in their writing in English through email communication. This study examined EFL learners' writing samples and followed taxonomy: grammatical, lexical, semantic, mechanics, and word order types of errors. Findings showed that participants made more mistakes on interlingual/transfer errors than on intralingual/developmental errors. Students used their L2 habits, rules, and patterns in the second language writing. However, students also had intralingual errors due to the overgeneralizations and partial exposure to the target language. In addition, students also included internet linguistic features in their writing. Some implications are drawn this study.

“…His social-cultural learning theory originally refers to expert-novice or teacher-student interactions but it has been applied to supportive behaviors by which students can help each other in the classroom or online platform (GUERRERO, VILLAMIL, 2000;LI, ZHU, 2013;CICCONI, 2014;HADJERROUIT, 2014). Online platforms offer new opportunities to team working, for example, wiki platforms with high interactivity potential that enables users to create and edit online hypertexts easily (GOMES, SOUSA, 2013;WANG, 2014).…”

RESUMO:A rápida evolução das Tecnologias da Informação e Comunicação (TICs) colaborou para o surgimento de uma nova geração de aprendizes que têm adotado os aparelhos móveis e as tecnologias Web 2.0 para busca de informação e comunicação. As ferramentas baseadas na Web 2.0, tais como os blogs, wikis, Facebook, Instagram, etc., oferecem grandes possibilidades para colaboração. Assim sendo, o principal objetivo desta pesquisa foi planejar uma atividade na plataforma wiki para a disciplina Estruturas de Concreto Armado do curso de Engenharia Civil com o propósito de responder às seguintes questões: (1) Como a colaboração poderia ser mensurada efetivamente em uma plataforma wiki? (2) Qual é a perspectiva dos alunos sobre a utilização da plataforma wiki para uma atividade colaborativa? A plataforma Wikispaces Classroom foi escolhida para a realização do projeto por ser adequada para tarefas educacionais colaborativas. Além disso, ela pode ser facilmente acessada em tablets e smartphones. As ações de 167 alunos do curso de Engenharia Civil foram monitoradas através das ferramentas estatísticas da plataforma Wikispaces. Todas as ações dos alunos foram analisadas e classificadas como baixo, médio ou alto nível de colaboração. No final do projeto 111 alunos responderam a um questionário e 10 participaram de uma entrevista informal onde expressaram a opinião deles sobre a plataforma, as atividades propostas e o relacionamento com seus colegas no ambiente online. Foi realizada uma análise estatística descritiva dos dados coletados na plataforma, questionários e entrevistas. Os resultados indicaram que a plataforma wiki é uma importante opção para o desenvolvimento de projetos e atividades colaborativas com o propósito de melhorar as seguintes habilidades dos alunos de engenharia: comunicação escrita, organização, colaboração e pensamento crítico.
