Weblogs enhancing EFL students’ English language learning
According
to the article, Weblogs enhancing EFL students English language learning from Usa Noytim that I have read already, I can summarize it as follows.
The
EFL is abbreviated from “English as a Foreign Language”, it just only using
English in classes.
The
first one, I will talk about “the purpose” of this paper. This research aimed
to address the limitations of lack of a genuine learning environment,
especially the limitation of conventional writing in which audience of
student’s written work is limitation to teacher and possibly to classmates.
The second one, I will talk about “the setting and participants”.
The participants of this research were twenty undergraduate English major
female student in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Nakhon Pathom
Rajabhat University. Their ages ranged from 22 to 24 years and they were in the
fifth-year of their studies. These student undertook eight semesters of
coursework and two semesters.
The
third one is “method”. The method is “short questionnaires”. At
the end of the semester, interview questionnaires which comprised of 15 questions
eliciting students’ experience of Internet use and Weblog use. Their
perceptions of and attitudes towards the use of Weblogs were administered to
the students.
The last one is “the results and
the discussion about weblogs”. Student were positive about weblog use and
the course. They like weblogs because they aided them in learning
English-Developing writing and reading skills. They found that creating,
publishing, and editing Blogs was easy. They felt that Weblogs provided another
modern mode of communication.
