چکیده | ||
In this study, the researcher attempted to investigate the effect of computer-mediated collaborative learning on Iranian advanced female English Learners' critical thinking and writing performance. In order to do this, initially 90 participants were chosen. To assure the homogeneity regarding language proficiency, they participated in a TOEFL exam which was used to select 60 out of 90 students whose scores fell between +1 and -1 SD for this study. Participants were then randomly assigned to two 30-member control and experimental groups. In this study, Watson–Glaser Critical Thinking Appraisal-Form A (Watson & Glaser, 1980) was used as a pretest to see to what extent the participants think critically. A writing test was also administered to assess the writing performance of the learners as writing pre-test. This writing was adapted from TOEFL Writing section and the results were scored by 3 raters. Then, two groups participated in ten sessions. The experimental group was provided with 15 laptops as well as with internet access so as to be able to extract the necessary information for completing their writing. Finally, the critical thinking questionnaire was administered again. Also, a post-test writing was administered to investigate the effect of treatment on the writing performance. The results of data analysis indicated that computer-mediated collaboration led to better writing performance of the learners. Computer-mediated collaboration also proved to have a statistically significant effect on critical thinking level of the participants. | ||

چکیده [English] | ||
در این مقاله محقق به بررسی تاثیر یادگیری باواسطه کامپیوتر برروی تفکرانتقادی ومهارت نوشتاری دانش آموزان پیشرفته دختر ایرانی پرداخته است. این مقاله دو هدف اصلی رادنبال میکند. هدف اول چگونگی بهبود عملکرد نوشتاری زبانآموزان بااستفاده از یادگیری با واسطه کامپیوتر بهصورت مشارکتی می باشد و هدف دوم پی بردن به چگونگی تغییر تفکرانتقادی از طریق این فرآیند می باشد. در نیل به این اهداف، ابتدا 90 شرکت کننده انتخاب شدند. برای همگن بودن مشارکت کنندگان، ابتدا تست TOEFLاز آنان به عمل آمد و 60 نفر از90 به صورت تصادفی انتخاب شدند و به دو گروه 30 نفره کنترل و تجربی تقسیم شدند. دراین تحقیق، فرم ارزیابی واتسون وگلیزر به عنوان پشآزمون برای سنجش درجه تفکرانتقادی آنان و از یک تست نوشتاری تافل به منظور ارزیابی عملکرد نوشتاری آنان انتخاب شد. نتایج توسط سه مصحح محاسبه شد. سپس دو گروه در 10 جلسه شرکت کردند. برای گروه تجربی، 15 لپ تاپ فراهم شد و اینترنت در دسترس آنان قرار گرفت تا بتوانند اطلاعات لازم را استخراج کنند. در انتها، پرسشنامه تفکرانتقادی دوباره به مشارکت کنندگان داده شد. سپس یک پسآزمون نوشتاری برای بررسی یادگیریی با واسطه کامپیوتر بر مهارت نوشتاری آنان به مشارکت کنندگان داده شد. نتایج تحلیل داده ها با استفاده از آزمون t-tes نشان داد که همکاری مشارکتی با واسطه کامپیوتر منتج به عملکرد بهتر نوشتاری زبان آموزان میشود و ثابت شد که یادگیریی با واسطه کامپیوتر همچنین تاثیر معناداری بر افزایش سطح تفکرانتقادی شرکت کنندگان دارد. | ||
