Full textThis study is aimed at investigating whether or not the use of the reading-response journal as a strategy can yield any positive results in enhancing development of writing skills among learners. The study was conducted as a case study in one of the Further Education and Training (FET) phase schools under uThungulu district, within the province of Kwa-Zulu Natal in South Africa. It included verification of the FET phase learners’ level of competency in writing skills. This was done through interviewing the English First Additional Language (FAL) teacher of the target class in the FET phase. The study targeted English FAL grade eleven learners since journal writing is part of their curriculum. The sample of thirty learners was conveniently selected. The qualitative method was employed for the collection of data; task-based activities and interviews were used as instruments for data collection. This study is underpinned by the reader-response theory and it sought to; (a) find out the views of learners on the use of the reading-response journal writing as a strategy to develop writing skills, (b) to determine the learners’ views on the intervention programme of the reading-response journals in the development of writing skills and (c) the experiences of English FAL learners as participants in the activities of journal writing. Learners were given three different tasks which required them to write essays. The findings revealed that learners are generally resistant to reading and writing. The learners also lament that it takes too long before the educator can bring back feedback on their written tasks, that demotivates them. The findings also revealed that some teachers regard the teaching of writing skills as an optional task to do, yet it is prescribed in the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) document of English FAL in the FET phase. In addition, there is resistance from teachers to use innovative methods of developing writing skills such as journal writing and diary entries, among others. Lastly, the learners showed significant improvement in their writing skills as they participated in the intervention programme. There was significant improvement in their individual performance from task one, to task two and task three. Finally, the study recommended that the Department of Basic Education officials should consider reviewing the pupil-teacher ratio for language teachers so that they can do justice to the teaching of all language aspects including writing skills. Further research on other types of journal writing was also recommended.

Trough Mindfulness Therapy action, I return to the rule of caregiver and change the attitude from helper to server; also figure out the connection between parent’s illness and my emotional self-regulation. After action, I clarify the state and the character of past childhood of parents’illness and find the way of my subjectivity. The motivation of writing about this story is from 2003, I received my mom’s Uterine fibroids had the chance to become malignant tumor. Since then, the issue of illness and death repeatedly appear in my life, they influence my emotion and made me to face the past trauma casing by parents’illness. By Narrative, I discover those repress emotion and need of love in past experience. Through guidance learning I learn how to self-care, and figure out the meaning of defender, alienate, outsider, company in different time. Even find out I lose my subjectivity. Action and narrative let my seek those hide in the history context’s subjectivity, also let me can move the focus from being parents’ company to my future guidance work. I expect those life-experiences can provide a view to those have same difficult circumstance, or engaging in counseling (guidance) field to understand, a child’s mental development of encounter parents’illness.

ABSTRACT With the leading assumption that language awareness relates to performance (Andrews, 2007), this study intends to examine the use of reflective journal writing to raise language learners’ awareness of their English grammar learning development. Next, as a distinctive feature of autonomous learning, conscious reflection on learning experiences has been seen as essential in raising one’s awareness of one’s learning development, with writing being a useful instrument for reflection (Bailey, 1983, cited in Benson, 2001; Hsu, 2005; Kohonen, 1992; Little, 1997). Yet, little research has been conducted. Henceforth, this study attempts to provide insights and empirical evidence on the issue, in relation to the development of learner autonomy. This study employed a quasi-experimental pre-posttest design and a concurrent triangulation design to answer three research questions: (a) Does writing weekly reflective journals influence learners’ English grammar learning development? (b) Is there a relationship between the learners’ level of awareness as measured in the reflective journals and their English grammar learning development? and (c) How do learners perceive the use of the weekly reflective journals in relation to their English grammar learning process? Two intact classes of a grammar course were selected to serve as a control group and an experimental group, with the latter group assigned to write weekly personal reflective journals. An English test functioning as pre- and post-tests was administered to both groups and Independent T-Test analyses were conducted, the results of which showed that personal reflective journal writing could not yet effectively influence learners’ learning development due to the participants’ collaborative learning style. Next, Spearman’s Rho correlation analysis between the levels of awareness and participants’ gain-score was run, and it revealed that awareness at the level of noticing (CC) was positively correlated with the learners’ learning development, denoting a crucial role of noticing in English grammar learning development. Moreover, content analyses on participants’ responses to a questionnaire on the Learners’ Perceptions towards Writing Weekly Reflective Journals uncovered that writing weekly reflective journals was perceived to have assisted the participants to become more aware of their own learning process, to participate actively in and to be responsible for their own learning, while confusion of what to reflect, time constraints, and conflicts with other priorities were discerned as its hardships. Additionally, content analyses on participants’ responses to a background questionnaire, a questionnaire on Learner Profile, and a questionnaire on Metacognitive Proficiency and Attitudes in Language Learning disclosed complementary insights into the findings. Overall, this study concluded that writing reflective journals offers a preliminary stage to enhance language awareness, and an initial step towards becoming autonomous learners.

The present study investigated the effects of Dialogue Journal Writing (DJW) on adult EFL learners’ writing motivation in English. It was designed to explore (1) how DJW influenced adult EFL learners’ writing motivation, (2) how teacher feedback in DJs influenced their writing motivation, and (3) what their perceptions of DJW were. To achieve the purpose, the experimental study recruited eight adult learners who participated in a twelve-week reading club organized by the researcher. They read an article about traveling and wrote two dialogue journal entries every week. Line, a social network application, was used as a tool for exchanging and responding to dialogue journals. Before participating in the project, they filled out background information questionnaires about their English learning histories and attitudes towards English learning and writing. Then, each of them was interviewed by the instructor-researcher during the first, the sixth, and the final weeks of the DJW project. All the semi-structured interviews were audio-taped and transcribed. The participants’ responses acquired from the interviews and the background information questionnaires were analyzed and cross-compared in order to see the changes of their writing motivation. A thematic analysis was performed on the interview data. The present study found that DJW enhanced most adult learners’ writing motivation. They were motivated to write in English because the DJW project offered them more opportunities to improve and practice English. They also reported that the target language input offered in teacher feedback and the questions based on the content of DJs enhanced their motivation to write more. In addition, keeping DJs on Line had positive influences on their writing motivation because it allowed them to receive and respond to teacher feedback immediately. Finally, all of the participants held favorable attitudes toward DJW because they perceived DJW as a way of improving their English proficiency and making them practice writing regularly.

Since several decades ago, language researchers have confirmed the positive effects of journal writing on language learners’ writing performance. Toby Fulwiler (1982) stated that personal journal writing records not only one’s personal life but also writing development across time; it is thus “a vehicle to explore the writer’s own belief system.” Though the positive effects of journal writing on language learners has been studied by numerous prior researchers, little research featuring the context of Taiwan was based on a longitudinal observation. A longitudinal observation allows us to know how the development of a writing behavior changes the learner’s writing motivation, process of sense of authorship and reader awareness, sentence complexity, vocabulary use, topical selection, article length and writing motivation across time. In light of this, this study observed a Taiwanese junior high school student’s writing process of English personal journals for one year to understand how her development of English personal journal writing behavior affected her English writing performance and motivation at the aforementioned aspects. The study followed the case study research and collected the following sources of data: the participant’s writing samples; semi-structured and unstructured interviews with the participant and writing conferences. The data were analyzed qualitatively. It attempted to answer the question about what changes could be found on the participant’s English writing performance and motivation after she developed English personal journal writing behavior. The results of the study showed that the participant improved her writing skills at the aspects of sentence complexity, article length, theme selection, sense of authorship and read awareness. Furthermore, the participant’s English writing motivation was heightened by the improvement of these writing skills, which again proves the finding of prior research that a language learner’s development of journal writing behavior may work effectively in his/her enhancement of writing motivation. The study concludes that a language learner’s development of journal writing behavior is positively related to her writing motivation.
