日本語作文の協同推敲過程におけるコメントの役割

초록

The aim of the present study is to elucidate what type of review comments, as peer responses, ,on essays can be effective for the writers. To this end, the comments were analyzed with a focus on the readers’ vocabulary and the revised essays were examined. The following features of the comments on the highly-evaluated essays were identified. First, the expressions which are associated with compositions and contents tended to be frequently used as such in the comments. The highly-evaluated essays were characterized using such expressions. Next, the words which are associated with “compositions” and “contents” were more frequently used than those associated with “consideration for readers” and “Japanese” in individual comments. The characteristic features of the comments were inferred from the co-occurrence words. One comment did not contain multiple elements and was focused on a single element. Moreover, several positive changes were identified in the finished essays which reflected those comments. After the changes, some were logically consistent and some were more conscious of readers. These results suggest that the comments in peer response can produce an organic effect. The comments which are understandable for writers are reflected in the revised version of their essays, resulting in highly-evaluated compositions.
