Effect of Online Collaborative Learning on Self-Reflection, Insight, and Learning Attitude in Poetry Writing Courses

Abstract

Poetry writing assists students in understanding their own and others’ emotions. However, without appropriate learning support, students often struggle to effectively organize their thoughts, which in turn affects their creative efficiency and learning outcomes. Collaborative learning effectively supports students in generating creative ideas and enhancing their poetry writing performance through peer feedback. Therefore, this study applied an online collaborative learning approach to a modern poetry composition course, aiming to investigate the effects of different learning approaches on self-reflection, insight, and learning attitude. The results indicate that the online collaborative learning approach can effectively facilitate students’ cognitive calibration, supporting the development of self-reflection and insight. However, considering the short duration of the intervention and the small sample size, further studies are needed to evaluate the long-term effects.
