网络日志（博客或Web日志）最近已成为最广泛使用的互联网应用程序之一。本研究旨在开发一个专门为英语学习者设计的博客。本研究通过比较被试在前三篇和后三篇博客文章中的写作表现，探讨了广泛写作的效果。本研究亦进行了一项调查，以探讨参与者的博客过程和他们对博客的看法。研究结果表明，在博客上写作可以提高参与者的整体写作成绩，促进参与者对自己写作的自主监控，并促进对外语写作的积极态度。研究结果表明，在网络环境下写作博客有助于提高学习者的写作技能，增强学习者的写作动机，培养学习者的监控策略和学习者的自主性。
A weblog (blog or Web log) has recently become one of the most widely used Internet applications. The current study concerns developing a blog specifically designed for learners learning English as a foreign language. The study investigated the effects of extensive writing by comparing the writing performance in the first three and the last three blog entries written by the participants. The study also conducted a survey to examine participants' blogging process and their perception of blogging. The results of the study show that writing on blogs could enhance participants' overall writing performance, promote participants' autonomous monitoring of their own writing, and promote positive attitudes toward foreign‐language writing. From its findings, the study concluded that writing weblogs in an online environment could be beneficial in improving learners' writing skills, enhance learners' motivation to write, and foster both learners' monitoring strategies and learner autonomy.
