The Effects of Brainwriting Strategy on EFL Middle School Learners’ W riting Proficiency

Abstract

This study investigated the effectiveness of the brainwriting strategy in enhancing writing proficiency among fourth-grade middle school Algerian learners. More specifically, the study had two main objectives: firstly, to examine the impact of using the brainwriting strategy on writing proficiency, and secondly, to gauge the learners’ perspectives on the major difficulties they face in writing tasks and their opinions on the utility of the brainwriting strategy. Thus, it was hypothesized that implementing the brainwriting strategy would lead to improved writing skills among the learners.
