Abstract

Scientific writing is a way for someone to put the concept of thinking in written form so that other people can understand what is being thought. Students are the next generations who have idealism in thinking that needs to be nurtured. The purpose of this study was to improve the scientific writ-ing of students through Collaborative Learning by utilizing blended learn-ing technology. The research method used is action research, using collabo-rative learning that is applied in learning to write scientific paper. The stu-dents are expected to have logical thinking aspects, data objectivity, vocab-ulary mastery, use of Enhanced Spelling (EYD), use of effective sentences, and paragraph development. It can be concluded that collaborative learning can improve the ability to write scientific articles because in collaborative learning students are very active, motivated and always intrigued by their hearts and minds to solve problems faced in the same group and they can compete competitively, and motivate other students to achieve the maxi-mum learning outcomes

Highlights

Writing represents a self-expression, what is in the mind is stated in writing The ability to write is an absolute (Zillmer & Kuhn, 2018)thing that must be mastered by students in all study programs at a University
It can be said that collaborative learning can improve the ability to write together, because in their work and assignments they always do it in groups, so that the various problems faced can be immediately solved in groups as well
Collaborative learning can improve the ability of the author by mastering six domains including: ganre, writing process, rhetoric, subject matter, community discourse and metacognitive knowledge

Summary

Introduction

Writing represents a self-expression, what is in the mind is stated in writing The ability to write is an absolute (Zillmer & Kuhn, 2018)thing that must be mastered by students in all study programs at a University. Blended learning is as a technology that combines all the elements of the media in the learning process (Boulton, Kent, & Williams, 2018) starting from text, sound, still images, moving images, animation and video.(Nazarenko, 2015) In the today’s digital era, it can be implemented in collaborative scientific writing Based on these conditions there are some points; 1. IClear overview, very detail and use keywords Not detail in describing, do not write down the reason why the writer is interested in the title, no preliminary data is attached, do not convey constraints that occur in the field and no solutions are offered. Using a theory study that is not relevant to the topic raised, not renewable, and does not quote from the original source book
