E-feedback focused on students' discussion to guide collaborative writing in online learning environments

We are convinced that the next excerpt is quite familiar to you: “I spend a lot of time detailing in the essay what students need to change, making suggestions and comments to improve their text but it seems that they don’t care about what I suggested. Does it really make sense to invest so much time when they really don’t implement these comments or changes into their texts? Is my feedback really useful for them?”
