Abstract: The growing interest in classroom peer feedback has provided the academic community with the possibility of developing corporate employees’ writing skills through the interaction of peer feedback. The present study aims to investigate the types and the influence of peer feedback in collaborative revision in blended learning for developing corporate employees'' business writing. As the participants, the four managers of a Korea-based airline company participated in the present case study. During the collaborative revision in blended learning, the participants'' spoken comments for the offline peer feedback and the written comments for the online peer feedback were collected and analyzed. The findings reveal that offline peer feedback helped the participants generate ideas and gather information. Meanwhile, online peer feedback helped them correct their writing appropriately. Conclusively, both offline and online peer feedback in collaborative revision in blended learning appear to have had a positive influence on developing the participants’ business writing. For future research, the investigative interest might need to be drawn to the relationship between the types of peer feedback and the rhetorical function for developing corporate employees'' business writing.
