Teaching an ESP Writing Course Collaboratively through a Web Community

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This qualitative research was conducted to investigate how to implement an ESP writing course taught in collaboration utilizing the web community. An ESP writing course was designed for the English education students who were preparing for the national teachers’ certificate exam. During the intensive two-week ESP writing course, the students wrote essays on four English education topics and received feedback on the structure and the content. Two native English speaking teachers and a bilingual Korean teacher provided the feedback collaboratively through the web community. The researchers suggest three implications from this study: 1) organization of pre-course teacher training, 2) establishment of virtual teacher collaboration, and 3) implementation of the virtual writing lab.
