Summary: | Due to the interest in the teaching of writing, this study aims to describe the revision sub-process that a group of Chilean students carry out in the collaborative writing of an essay in a wiki. Data was collected through the administration of a mix-item questionnaire, content analysis of the wiki writing process history, and interviews with the participants in the study. The results indicate that the students recognize that the revision sub-process should focus on coherence and cohesion of the text being revised. Nevertheless, there is no recursive writing process in which the students return to previous sub-processes. For this reason, guidelines are needed to train students to assess while revising, promoting autonomy and self-regulation in their learning process. |
