About

Welcome to my live presentation. I teach a subject students fear: academic writing. I am happy to share with you how my students gradually reduced anxiety while writing about "remote learning". Enjoy my report in the evening on Sunday with your drink. Hope you have a good time witnessing my students' constructive peer feedback that occured in a community space called Moodle while staying at home.

Remote learning in 2020 has increased student anxiety of learning academic writing at a university level. This study explores the effectiveness of interactions using a learning management system (LMS) during process writing to develop their writing skills and their understanding of the essay topic: remote learning. The research findings show that the LMS enabled class collaboration to promote writing skills and content understanding which resulted in reduced stress in the academic writing courses.
