Writing is an essential language skill that supports students' critical thinking, creativity, and communication. However, many Indonesian students still face difficulties in organizing ideas and producing coherent texts. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of a Padlet-assisted Collaborative Writing textbook in improving senior high school students' writing skills. A quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group was employed involving 72 tenth-grade students of state high school 1 Weleri. The experimental group learned using the developed textbook, while the control group received conventional instruction. Data were collected through writing tests and analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent and paired samples t-tests, and N-Gain analysis. The findings indicate that the Padlet-assisted Collaborative Writing textbook effectively improved students' writing skills and provided a more engaging and collaborative learning experience.
