摘要合作学习是一种以学生为中心的学习方法，这种方法注重学生在学习中的核心地位，强调在学习过程中调动学生的主动性和积极性，激发学生的学习兴趣和学习热情。目前合作学习已被广泛应用于课堂教学，但应用于写作教学方面的研究却很少。而且研究对象主要是大学生。基于这一点，本文旨在研究合作学习在初中英语写作课堂的应用。本研究是以课堂为基础的，主要通过对实验班和控制班学生前，中，后三次作文测验成绩进行对比分析，并且在后测后，对实验班同学进行问卷调查，了解合作学习能否提高学生的写作水平。研究对象是徐州第八中学初三两个班的学生。
该研究结果显示，将合作学习应用到写作教学中，实验班学生的写作分数有所提高，但和控制班之间仍无明显差距，但调查问卷的结果显示，它能激发学生写作兴趣，降低写作焦虑，提高写作动机。而且相比控制班的学生，实验班的学生英语作文中单词拼写和语法错误较少。该调查研究结果对初中写作教学工作具有重要启示。
