Enhancing EFL Writing Skills Through The Process Writing Approach: A Case Study Of 10th Graders At Chu Van An High School

This study explores the effectiveness of the Process Writing Approach (PWA) in improving paragraph writing skills among 10th-grade students at Chu Van An High School. Writing is an essential skill for second language learners, but students often face challenges in organizing their thoughts, producing coherent content, and applying proper language conventions. The PWA, which includes stages such as pre-writing, drafting, revising, editing, and publishing, has been proven to enhance writing skills in diverse educational settings (Murray, 1972; Flower & Hayes, 1981). The study involves 90 students who will actively participate in this approach, with their writing abilities assessed through pre-tests and post-tests to measure progress. Additionally, explicit instruction on paragraph structure and peer review processes will be incorporated to further support skill development. Interviews with educators will offer deeper insights into the challenges faced and the effectiveness of the teaching methods used. The findings are expected to contribute valuable recommendations for improving writing instruction within the Vietnamese educational system (Graham & Perin, 2007).
