| dc.description.abstract | Second Language Acquisition (SLA) research confirms that collaborative writing might be conductive to L2 learning for students at all proficiency levels (Storch 1998; Swain & Lapkin, 2001). The current small-scale study compared the effectiveness of a collaborative and individual dictogloss task on the acquisition of L2 vocabulary by high proficiency English learners (N-14). The learners completed a pre-test, a dictogloss task, and a post-test over a two-week period. Part of the students (N-10) carried out the task in pairs and the other part worked individually (N-4). The written output was collected and compared in terms of accuracy, fluency and similarity to the original passage when completing the task. Also, a survey was carried out to elicit student’s attitudes. Results show that collaboration in a dictogloss has no significant influence on vocabulary acquisition however it improves task outcome: collaborative texts are more accurate, fluent and more similar to the original. In light of the results, attention will be drawn to the digtogloss task as a pedagogical tool at high proficiency levels in order to enhance language learning in EFL classrooms in similar contexts. | en |
