Abstract:
The core purpose of this study was to investigate the current EFL teachers’ practices and
challenges inimplementingthecollaborative writing strategy of Seka Number 2 Secondary
School/1the case of grade 11.This study employed a descriptive research design. By using this
design, the researcher collected valuable and reliable data about the issue from the participants
of the study. The study involved quantitative and qualitative research approaches for data
collection and data analysis. The research instruments were a questionnaire, interview, and
classroom observation. The sampling method was simple random sampling for students and
census sampling for teachers. The analysis of the data showed that even if the benefits of the
collaborative writing strategy were expressed by so many scholars and researchers;the findings
of the current research revealed very low implementation of collaborative writing strategy due to
factors such as lack of resources, poor classroom management, and lack of detail awareness of
students and teachers about the strategy and inappropriate use of teachingmethods. Thus, EFL
teachers,
Educational administrative bodies(Directors, supervisors, and curriculum
designers),and other stakeholders were recommended to give due attention to the
implementation of the collaborative writing strategy especially in the studied school.
Additionally, if possible, more research is recommended to harvest more results from it.
