Research Abstract |
The present study introduced a new kind of university composition class implementing a blended learning approach that combines different styles of classes, such as e-learning and peer response sessions. Peer response sessions involve discussion of participants' compositions. Regardless of whether each learner's orientation was suited or unsuited toward e-learning, peer response sessions, or blended learning, writing competency improved following participation in the course. Acquisition skills differed between e-learning and peer response sessions. These findings clarified the complementary relationship between e-learning and peer response sessions, and demonstrated improvements in writing competency due to combining the two class formats.
