Abstract

Today‟s education is innovating day by day the way in which the students acquire their English abilities. The current investigation was based on how to enhance the writing skill in English among students of 3rd BGU at Unidad Educativa John F. Kennedy in Salinas, Province of Santa Elena, school year 2017-2018, through the use of a Learning System. This research paper based most of its investigation on Jeremy Harmer‟s reasons to teach writing. Harmer said that those reasons comprise language development, learning style and writing as a skill in its own right. The main aim was to show how the use of technology can motivate students to develop their writing abilities while doing something interesting as writing according to their own preferences. This investigation used the qualitative and inductive and deductive method in order to gather the data. Through the use of the qualitative method the interviews and surveys were applied for collecting the appropriate information for the investigation while the inductive and deductive method helped the researcher to make assumptions and possible answers to the problematic already existing. The study involved the principal of the institution, 6 English teachers and the 25 3rd BGU students from Unidad Educativa John F. Kennedy. Furthermore, the results of the implementation of the LMS caused a positive impact on the 3rd BGU students from Unidad Educativa John F. Kennedy due to the motivation that they expressed before, during and after the development of the writing activities. The mentioned students not only increased their writing level but improved their vocabulary, grammar, grammar coherence and their communicative skills in English showing that technology can contribute in a positive way to the teaching-learning process.
