I have an extremely beneficial experience in the classroom but I also received a lot of encouragement and useful advice throughout the experiment Fourth, I would like to express my gratitude to the participants who spent their valuable time joining the experiment in class and online and the interviewees who were willing to share their feelings and opinions Last but not least, I would like to thank my reader for their interests and comment on this study i ABSTRACT In the 21st century where information has become easily available and accessible, education has shifted its attention to teaching students how to process and think critically about the information they receive Welcoming the changes that education constantly witnesses, the field of English Language Teaching (ELT) has embraced the integration of critical thinking into teaching and learning practices In the present study, the relationship between critical thinking and argumentative writing was focused on It has been claimed that collaborative learning which stimulates the active exchange of ideas within small groups not only increases interest among the participants but also promotes critical thinking One of the important aspects of learning and teaching through collaboration is the group composition or grouping “who with whom” The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of homogeneous and heterogeneous grouping on students’ critical thinking level in writing argumentative essays through collaborative learning In collecting the data, the researcher used both quantitative and qualitative approach by grouping the participants into three grouping types (homogeneous low-student groups, homogeneous high-student groups and heterogeneous groups) to work with each other and write argumentative essays individually Some of the participants were then invited to take part in the interview to have a deeper understanding of the cooperation among members in both grouping types The researcher scored essays, using the rubric and codes the data based on the research questions The data was presented descriptively and are supported qualitatively by the excerpts of interviews and related theories The results demonstrated that there was an improvement in learners’ critical thinking level through collaborative writing, whether they were grouped homogeneously or ii heterogeneously However, low-level students in heterogeneous groups achieved higher level of improvement than those in homogeneous groups This revealed that collaborative learning could be especially beneficial for low students It is hoped that the findings of the present study will give teachers deep insights into group compositions in collaborative learning courses, and will help them make better group experiences for students iii TABLE OF CONTENT LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS vii LIST OF FIGURES viii LIST OF TABLES ix CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY 1.2 PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
