Tóm tắt
The study investigates the impact of collaborative writing via the Padlet platform on Vien Dong College students’ writing performance and attitudes. The study employs a quantitative approach using the tests’ results and questionnaire responses. Descriptive analysis is used to interpret the data. Findings illustrated that students’ writing accuracy was improved. Students also had positive attitudes towards the employment of collaborative writing via Padlet. The study suggests that future research should expand to English-majored students, one more instrument might be employed, and other writing task types could be instructed.
