Collaboration in a composition classroom: what do introverts have to say?

This study examines introverts' perspectives in regards to collaborative composition classroom pedagogy. More specifically, this research focuses on how introverted students respond to peer review workshops, group work, class discussions and group writing in a first-year composition class. Findings indicate that while introverted students' comfort and level of assimilation may vary, collaborative learning is an effective learning approach to implement in a composition classroom.
