Category Corresponding Statement Items Findings

Category #1:
Students' Perception
towards Their
Engagement in Phase
Two Comparing with
Phase One
01. I enjoyed using Weebly to write
more than last time.

02. I enjoyed having our class at the
computer lab.

03. I was more engaged in the
writing project this time because I
was given more instruction on web-
based technology.

04. I was more engaged in the
writing project this time because I
was provided a qualified technology-
based learning environment (the
computer lab).
60% of the responses fell
in the column Agree and
Strongly Agree, which
means the students more
enjoyed the web-based
technology for writing in
phase two, in which they
were provided a qualified
technology-based learning
environment as well as
more support on web-
based technology
instruction.


Category #2:
Students' Attitudes
toward Fact and
Opinion Scaffolding
Learning in Phase Two
Comparing with Phase
One
05. I learned facts and opinions better
than last time because this time I was
taught how to distinguish a fact from
an opinion and how facts are used to
support opinions.

06. I think learning how to
distinguish a fact from an opinion
and how facts are used to support
opinions helps me enhance my
writing quality.

71% of the responses fell
in the column Agree and
Strongly Agree, which
means the students
believed learning how to
distinguish a fact from an
opinion and how facts are
used to support opinions
help them improve their
writing. In other words,
my scaffolding teaching
with facts and opinions in
phase two addressed the
students' need of
improving writing.




Category #3:
Students' Intrinsic
Motivation towards
Writing with Outside
Sources Support

07. I was more willing to write when
I was given a lot of outside sources
(articles and videos) about the
writing topic, because I was able to
get some ideas and supporting details
from these sources.

08. I was more willing to write my
five-paragraph writing assignment
this time because I am able to revisit
the outside sources on the teacher's
Weebly site and find some useful
information to support my writing.
54% of the students fell in
the column Agree and
Strongly Agree, which
means more than half of
the students thought they
were more willing to write
when they were provided
outside sources support. In
other words, with outside
sources support, they were
more engaged in writing.
