The Development of Belief During Intensive Writing Training
Abstract
The present study aims to analyze the development of belief about writing in English between two classes, self-assessment class and peer assessment class, during one week. It is assumed that student assessment would influence writing class, because student assessment would stimulate students' awareness about writing and also encourage students to be objective about their work. If student assessment is effectively adopted into English writing class, it would have a great combined effect on the development of student English proficiency with teacher assessment. Control group evaluate their own compositions, and treatment group evaluate peers' compositions. Pre- and post- questionnaires are distributed to survey the change of learning attitude and awareness about English writing.
