Positive Effect

Implementing a writing strategy especially collaborative writing  is one of the efforts to make writing learning work optimally. In its application, collaborative writing strategy is claimed to have a positive effect on each aspects of student writing skill, but based on the implementation of this strategy, several problems are found, where students are still less active in discussions and students do not want to be involved in the collaborative writing process. So with these problems, it certainly becomes an obstacle that can cause the implementation of this strategy do not run optimally, so that the selection of a media is the right way to overcome these problems by using Online Learning based Edmodo. The design of this study was quasi experimental design, with 10th grade students from MA Masyhudiyah as the subject. Two classes were chosen, they were X-MIPA 1 as an experimental class and X MIPA 2 as a control class with 28 students in each class. The research findings in this study revealed that there were significant differences between the experimental and control groups. This is evidenced by the results of sig. (2-tailed) is 0,000. The sig. (2-tailed) is lower than the significance level of 0.05 (0.000 <0.05). So, the null hypothesis (Ho) can be rejected. So it can be interpreted that Online Collaborative Writing through Edmodo has a positive effect on students' writing skills. Therefore, the researcher strongly recommend to the teachers to apply Online Collaborative Writing through Edmodo in the teaching and learning process and also for further researchers can conduct similar research in other ways, skill or levels.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of peer assessment on willingness to communicate (WTC) among Iranian advanced EFL learners in the context of classroom. In order to serve the main purpose of the study, two groups of advanced learners participated in this study. Primarily, a pre-test was administered to both groups, then the participants of experimental group received a treatment of 10 sessions. In these sessions the participants assessed their peers according to the peer assessment form. On the other hand, the participants of control group did not receive any treatment. The quasi-experimental, pre-test, and post-test were applied to these two groups. The obtained data was analyzed with two sample independent t-test statistical methods. The results revealed a meaningful significant difference among Iranian advanced EFL learners' willingness to communicate of the participants who assessed their peer's performances, so peer assessment significantly affected their achievement in oral communication. Teachers deal with learners that are willing to communicate orally in their foreign language, while some learners do not use their foreign language, even with high linguistic competence.
