Through the course design and theexperiment, the writer has also compared and analyzed the improvements of the studentsin the Experimental Class and Control Class in the aspects of participation of the activitiesin class, changes of the learning enthusiasm and motivation, and writing ability andachievements. After one semester's experiment, the writer got the experimental data, which showed that: the writing achievements of the students in the Experimental Classhave been significantly improved, and the achievements of the students in the ControlClass, who are taught under the traditional teaching methods, got no evident changes.It is expected that the findings and discussions in this study will give modestcontribution and shed light on the relative research for college English writing teachingunder Chinese EFL environment.
