Abstract | ||
The study aimed to examine the effect of utilizing a constructivist approach on developing EFL adult learners’ writing fluency in a blended learning context. To serve as a guide for the design of the instruments, the researcher created a list of the components of writing fluency. Along with the proposed program, the researcher also prepared a pre- and post-writing fluency test and a rubric. Then, she nominated a group of pre-intermediate to intermediate Egyptian EFL learners who desired to develop their writing fluency (n= 27) to participate in the study and to get involved in its activities. They were between the ages of 20 and 35 years old. The pre- and post-tests were administered. After the application of the program, the scores were subjected to both quantitative and qualitative analysis. The results demonstrated that the constructivist approach used in a blended learning context was highly effective in developing the writing fluency of EFL adult learners. | ||
