The book discusses factors that may impact on the nature and outcomes of collaborative writing, and examines the beliefs about language learning that underpin learners' and teachers' attitudes towards pair and group work. The book critically reviews the available body of research on collaborative writing and identifies future research directions, thereby encouraging researchers to continue investigating collaborative writing activities UR - https://doi.org/10.21832/9781847699954 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781847699954 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781847699954/original ER -
