Students' Attitudinal Effects of Product Writing Approach in the Saudi EFL Classroom
Odeh, Bashar Ragheb Hasan
TESOL International Journal, v15 n4 p124-146 2020
The paper assessed the linguistic and attitudinal effects of the product strategy for writing. The study adds to the current literature on the efficacy of a product strategy for Saudi EFL students. The respondents of the study were a total of 63 Saudi EFL undergraduate students in Saudi Arabia. The sample measurements were determined with a G*Power T-test Mean differential between two distinctive (matched) sample media with A priory power test shape. The results indicate that a product strategy successfully increases Saudi EFL students' writing and writing abilities as assessed by their accomplishments and attitudinal outcomes before and after the application of writing approaches, utilizing quasi-experimental testing techniques for respondents. Finally, the study concludes that there is no connection between the writing skills and the attitude of respondents' writing after introducing them to a product approach, which implies that they may display better-written results with the use of a product approach, regardless of their attitude to writing. The research findings would have real consequences for language instruction.
