영문 초록

In the early 80's, the teaching of writing to native speakers of English was drastically reformed with the introduction of the notion of writing as a process. Since that time, the best of the techniques involved in the process approach have been successfully transferred to the teaching of writing in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) and English as a Second Language (ESL). To ascertain the efficacy of such techniques, this study employed a combination of methods instead of using a textbook. Students wrote in a journal or diary, did freewriting at the beginning of each class, and followed a process writing approach for their essays. The latter included the use of editing symbols to emphasise, in accordance with the traditional approach, that product is also important. Students reported that they felt they had learned more about writing and their writing indicated that they had. These findings suggest that EFL writing texts might supplement a process writing approach, or that the process approach might be used to supplement a writing program based on sequential writing texts. In either of these two cases, the traditional approach would be placed in a different perspective. The findings also suggest that this approach by itself is sufficient.
