Abstract

Pigai Web (www.pigai.org) offers a good study platform for college students to improve their English writing skills. To confirm whether students’ English writing skills can be effectively improved by using Pigai Web or not, empirical comparison between the traditional writing teaching and the autonomous learning of writing based on Pigai Web was adopted in this study. The research results indicate that the autonomous learning of writing based on Pigai Web can effectively improve college students’ English writing skills, specifically in adopting appropriate words, making beautiful sentences, and expressing ideas, but it doesn’t effectively help college students avoid spelling mistakes. Conclusively, Pigai Web practically contributes to the enhancement of English writing ability to its users. The research results are especially applicable to undergraduates, as students at this level have basically mastered English grammar and basic English writing skills, but they still need urgent improvement of English writing ability.
