History: aw1l 2.2 Methodology

Big and small groups of pupils have been used, in subjects of 1st and 2nd cycle, of several university degrees, and with several types of collaborative writing assignments or works (Table 1). In total, they have participated in the experience (in either way) more than 230 pupils, 10 teachers, 10 subjects among the first and second period of four months of the year and among the 5 different university degrees being implied, of two universities and an ascribed centre.

In our experience we defined "''Traditional methodology''" as the process in which students:
* create individual documents in computers not connected among themselves (for example, computer labs of teaching institutions are not in an intranet with individual houses)

* do not have the need to take special measures of security for avoiding the simultaneous editions of a same sub-document, since the tool itself (Wiki) warns when there is an attempt at simultaneous edition, and who is currently working on that document.
* do not have the need to manually join changes together in the same document, since the changes are always integrated into the last version that is accessible in the server

Opinion from lecturers was collected through meetings in person, and opinions from students was collected through individual surveys, which included closed questions (answers ranging from 1 to 5) and empty spaces every several questions to allow extra comments. Students had to hand in the answered surveys to their teachers at the end of the term inside a closed envelope labeled with their name on it, and they were not opened until the grading of the group work was completely finished.
