논문 초록 (Abstract)
The present study attempted to discover plausible differences in composing processes when English as a Second Language (ESL) students write timed-essays on paper and on the computer. For this study, six Korean students with high proficiency in English were asked to write two essays across modes with two different prompts. Upon completion of the test, participants reported on their composing processes in detail. This study also examined the way in which the quality of the written products differs across paper and computer modes. The purpose of this study was to focus research on composing processes and written products across modes at the level of the individual rather than at that of the group. The results of the study show that individual participants are engaged in different ways and to differing degrees by the writing prompts and by the test-taking modality. While the lack of significant differences for essay scores across modes may be suggestive, the number of subjects is too small for generalization about the relationship between modes of composing and essay scores.
