What is Fifth (5th) Grade

Writing, whether integrated technology or not, is an essential skill for today graduates. And motivating and improving students' life skills by Web 2.0 tools-integrated writing activities may be an effective way. Because of this, the aim of this chapter is to investigate the effect of weblog environment, which is used for writing, on writing tendency. A quantitative research design was used for this research. In this context, the “pretest-posttest control group design” was applied as an experimental research. Fourteen students who are at the fifth grade level in a public school participated in this research, seven in the experiment group and seven in the control group. While the experiment group worked on a weblog, the control group worked on a face-to-face environment. A writing tendency scale was applied as pre-test and post-test. The results are discussed in terms of findings.
