ALDANA, Alexandra. The Process of Writing a Text by Using Cooperative Learning. profile [online]. 2005, n.6, pp.47-58. ISSN 1657-0790.

This research project was carried out in order to get ninth graders of the departamental school “El Tequendama” involved in their writing tasks and to improve their writing skills, following the process that a professional writer enables students to write cooperatively and reduces their writing anxiety. Cooperative writing enables the participation of students with a mixture of proficiency level, thus providing greater opportunities to make achievements and therefore greater opportunities to be more deeply involved in their writing tasks.

Keywords : Teaching writing; teaching techniques; students as writers; team work.
