Abstract

Writing is an important communication skill and has an essential role in second language learning. Due to its active and productive nature, writing in a foreign language is very challenging for students especially for Chinese immersion students. Research indicates that integrating technology into writing workshops can significantly impact student learning, fostering skills like planning, writing, and creating digital stories. The capstone incorporates both research findings and writer's workshop lesson plans to answer the research focus: How to bring technology into writing to support and engage elementary Chinese Immersion students. Research concludes that technology presents a powerful set of tools that can be strategically integrated into Chinese immersion programs to enhance writing instruction and support students' writing development.
