| dc.description | The purpose of this study was to determine how using Facebook in collaborative writing affects ESL students’ apprehension towards writing. A quasi-experimental study was conducted with two classes of 46 form four ESL students from an urban secondary school who were chosen through purposive sampling. The students were later divided into two groups: control and training. Within a 9-hour engagement session via Facebook, the students were exposed to virtual collaborative writing exercises with their fellow classmates. To gauge the level of apprehension among these students, a pre and post-test was conducted. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics as well as an analysis of the open-ended questions and interviews. The quantitative results showed that there was significant effect of using Facebook in collaborative writing on ESL students’ writing apprehension level, (M= 6.27, SD=11.80), t (21) = 2.49, p<0.05. However, the qualitative analysis on the interviews and open-ended responses of the questionnaires revealed both positive and negative feedback. It was also found that the students had become more aware of the benefits in using Facebook in collaborative writing and of the features of Facebook which had assisted them in their writing activities.,“Certification of Master’s Thesis” is not available,Sarjana Pendidikan | - |
