Collaborative Languaging for L1 Learning in a CSCL Classroom via Group Scribbles: An Exploratory Case Study

Abstract

A micro-generic case study has been conducted to explore students’ collaborative languaging practices in a CSCL L1 classroom. Descriptive analysis shows that students were highly engaged in the collaborative task and their group work was efficiently coordinated, during which required linguistic forms of accuracy and appropriateness were constructed, so did the related linguistic knowledge. This reveals the significance of collaborative languaging and technology intervention to enhance learning in L1 classrooms.
