The Evaluation of Computer Assisted Prewriting for Young EFL Writers
(0) This study aimed to determine the effect of instruction in computer assisted prewriting strategies on the early L2 literacy of elementary-school EFL students.This study adopted a quasi-experiment design involving two English reading ability tests, and one English writing test.Two intact classes of 56 elementary-school students participated in the study.The results showed that the computer assisted prewriting group significantly outperformed the traditional paper- and-pencil-based group in reading ability, writing quality, and writing quantity.The obtained results could be useful when developing an effective writing instruction model for beginning elementary-school EFL writers with the support of computer assisted prewriting strategies.
