    This document discusses using a "Big Paper" strategy for peer correction of student writing. Students gather around a large sheet of paper with a sample student text in the center. They then silently write comments and feedback on the paper about the sample text and each other's comments. This allows students to see everyone's full perspective at once and cross-reference comments. The approach has advantages like being hands-on, collaborative, producing a tangible outcome, and harnessing the power of peer feedback to improve student writing.

    Better Writing with Big

    Paper:
    Peer Correction in
    Collaborative Learning Teams

    Zhazira Muktar
    AKK-203
    Writing is an important part of literacy
    development and an essential skill for life
    outside the classroom. As a result, many
    English classes emphasize improving students’
    writing abilities. This applies especially to courses
    that seek to prepare international students for
    admission to tertiary study programs in
    Anglophone countries. How can our students ever
    improve the quality and accuracy of their writing
    unless we, their teachers, correct their language
    mistakes?
    Why hands-on is good, big is
    beautiful, and
    silence is golden

    In a nutshell, Big Paper is a peer-


    collaboration strategy in which a group of
    students gather around a large-format
    page, which is blank except for a stimulus
    text pasted in the centre, to which they
    respond—silently—by writing comments.
    The idea is to elicit and pool everyone’s
    reactions on a single readable surface,
    enabling all to see the whole picture at a
    glance. The method allows for visible
    cross-referencing and interlinking of
    comments.
    The prime text, which is uncorrected student
    writing, is taped or glued to the center of the
    Big Paper. Students will (silently) write
    comments about the text on the Big Paper;
    they will then write comments about one
    another’s comments, also on the Big Paper.

    Advantages of the approach

    1. It is a hands-on practical activity 2. It is social and collaborative,


    that gets students up off their chairs getting everyone to work together
    and into physically learning by doing. simultaneously on a task that combines
    action with reflection.
    Advantages of the approach

    3. It results in a concrete physical product, 4. The work is done in complete silence, so


    a large-sized poster, that can be displayed it cuts out the distractions and looseness
    on the classroom walls to make a gallery for of oral discussion and obliges students
    students to walk around, look at, review, to set down their thoughts in written
    talk about, and feel proud of. Students’ self- English, which is different and more
    esteem, both individual and collective, is rigorous grammatically than spoken
    improved when they know that people are English.
    going to see their group’s poster and
    appreciate their efforts. 5. The students are in charge of about
    90 percent of the process, which
    maximises their feeling of being active,
    empowered, and autonomous—all of
    which is positive for the level of learner
    engagement, the essential prerequisite
    for deep learning.
    Advantages of the approach

    6. It harnesses the power of peer 8. It yields durable output that provides the
    feedback, teacher with data on how the students
    which has a strong influence on learner are thinking about their language use and
    engagement and motivation. that of their peers. This yields actionable
    pedagogical insights into their learning
    needs.

    7. It places each learner in the role of 9. Because students write more slowly
    proofreader and editor of the written than they speak, Big Paper slows down
    work of their peers, which attunes their thinking, giving them time to
    them to notice the specific accuracies reflect and plan what they will write and
    or inaccuracies of their own writing and encouraging them to consider the views
    to acquire the habit of applying critical of others.
    thinking to what they read and write.
