Writing Groups: Cross-Cultural Issues.

Peer reviewed

Carson, Joan G.; Nelson, Gayle L. – Journal of Second Language Writing, 1994

Writing groups, used in many English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) composition classrooms, pose problems for some students from collectivistic cultures such as Japan and China. Suggested reasons are the individual benefit goal, the need for feedback rather than group harmony, and strained group dynamics. (Contains 41 references.) (Author/LB)
