本研究之目的在於探討部落格應用於英文寫作課之成效。部落格一種可延展並且可流動之媒介，學生可以利用部落格塑造出自己的聲音和反映出自己風格。在英文寫作課中，學生對部落格的態度是正面還是負面呢？ 整體而言學生的態度為何呢?在本實驗共有二十四學生參與。實驗結果顯示使用部落格的優點有：便利性、寫作練習和情感表達；反之缺點：有學生的主動性、文章的正確性和電腦的不穩定。使用部落格的益處有可多作英文的練習、專業的介面和分享同學的另一面，困難為持續寫作性和使用電腦的方便性。整體而言，學生對部落格保持正面的態度。

The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of weblogs in the English writing class for EFL learners. Weblog is a malleable and fluid medium which students can develop their individualistic voices and reflects their personal style (Oravec, 2003). In an EFL writing classroom, did students form positive or negative attitudes toward using blogs? What were the advantages and disadvantages of using blogs in the writing class? Twenty-four Taiwanese EFL students participated in this study. The results show that the major advantages of using blogs included convenience, writing practice, and emotional expression, whereas the disadvantages were spontaneity, accuracy, and computer instability. The benefits of using blogs were synthesized as English practices, professional layouts, and diverse sides of their classmates, while on the contrary the difficulties were persistency, user-friendly, and inconvenient access of computers. The students formed positive attitudes toward using blogs in the EFL writing classes. The findings and conclusions from this study may be served as suggestions for teachers who intended to introduce blogs in English classes. The ultimate goal was to explore the effectiveness of blogs in language learning and teaching.
