Interactive Composing offers an integrated and interactive approach to learning English by involving students in listening, speaking, reading and writing. The book also offers a global approach to learning by tapping students' language skills as well as thinking skills, such as planning, analyzing and problem-solving, and interpersonal skills, such as working cooperatively with peers. Interactive Composing uses a writing workshop approach, which encourages students to influence each other as they work in groups to brainstorm, write up a discovery draft, and re-work their writing. To sum up, through this approach, students develop their skills in using the language to compose for an audience. They become more confident as they gain expertise in using the language, and, in so doing, begin their development as independent writers.
