Training EFL
Students in the Use of Strategies for Peer Response
Utami Widiati
This chapter discusses the procedure of
training EFL students in the use of strategies for effective peer response. The
subjects of the study were trained to provide response for their peers within
the paradigm of the process approach to teaching writing. The study showed that
significant changes were obtained in students’ attitudes toward peer response
and that classmates’ comments helped them improve their writing in terms of
content, organization, and language. The author believes that the training in
the use of strategies for effective peer response has convinced the students
that peer response was a worthwhile activity.
