“…The fact that an uneven workload was characteristic of many groups underscores the importance of student accountability. This can be achieved by using a jigsaw format or collaborative tasks (Aydin & Yildiz;Lee, 2010;Lund, 2008), assigning roles (Yeh, 2014;Zheng, Niiya, & Warschauer, 2015), increasing task visibility (i.e., knowing that the instructor is aware of each student's efforts; Piezon & Donaldson, 2005), creating weekly milestones and pre-, during-, and post-writing activities to structure progress and reflection throughout the process (Alyousef & Picard, 2011;Limbu & Markauskaite, 2015), and using rubrics for peer evaluation (Alyousef & Picard, 2011;Zheng, Niiya, & Warschauer, 2015). Furthermore, this finding reminds us of the central role of task motivation, which can be fostered with relevant enjoyable tasks that allow learners to experience success and exercise agency and autonomy (e.g., by selecting the topic) (Guilloteaux & Dörnyei, 2008).…”
