Abstract
Exploring the Perspectives of Pre-University Students on Authentic Collaborative Writing Project
Highlights
Collaborative writing refers to the activity of composing together and sharing decision-making power between multiple authors to create a single written text (Allen et al, 1987)
Vygotsky (1978) theorises that learners co-construct knowledge as they interact with their partners within the zone of proximal development (ZPD), the distance between learners’ ability to perform a task under the assistance of a more knowledgeable other (MKO) and their ability to solve the problem independently
In the current research which studied a collaborative writing project, each member of the group acted as the MKO who contributed their individual strengths in the area where the other group members are weak at i.e. their ZPD, such as vocabulary, grammar and idea for the text
