THE APPLICATION OF PADLET AS A PEER FEEDBACK TOOL IN WRITING
Abstract
Writing proficiency is a fundamental skill essential for academic success and effective communication. Peer feedback, a strategy where students provide constructive comments to their peers, has been acknowledged for its role in enhancing writing skills, critical thinking, and collaboration. This study explores the application of Padlet as a peer feedback tool in writing education, focusing on its impact on student engagement, participation, and the overall feedback process. Employing Classroom Action Research (CAR), the research was conducted over three cycles, involving planning, action, observation, and reflection phases with 20 higher intermediate students. Data were collected through observations, student surveys, and semi-structured interviews to assess engagement levels, quality of feedback, and overall student satisfaction with the platform. Findings indicate that students perceive Padlet as a user-friendly platform that enhances their confidence in providing and receiving feedback, leading to improved writing outcomes. Overall, the findings underscore the potential of Padlet to transform traditional feedback methods into more interactive and effective learning experience
