Abstract
The authors of this article analyze four factors which may have an influence on the development and outcomes of group work involving metalinguistic reflection: task type, interactive patterns, participants' monolingualism / bilingualism, and language itself as the object of reflection. The data analyzed are based on transcribed recording of a series of group-work sessions that were carried out with secondary school students (aged 14-15) and which included different types of metalinguistic tasks. In order to complement the analysis of the four factors mentioned above, the article also includes another section in which the reflection process followed by secondary school students is compared with that followed by students of a postgraduate course on language teaching.
