<![CDATA[This study examined the integration of the Think Talk Write (TTW) model and Canva as a technology-supported instructional strategy for improving students’ descriptive writing and supporting their classroom engagement. A classroom action research design based on Lewin’s cyclical framework was implemented across two instructional cycles involving 31 seventh-grade students. Data were collected through descriptive writing assessments, classroom observations, instructional documentation, and informal conversations, and were analyzed using descriptive quantitative and qualitative approaches. The findings showed progressive improvement in students’ descriptive writing achievement across the intervention cycles. The proportion of students meeting the minimum mastery criterion increased from 32.25% at baseline to 61.29% in Cycle I and 93.54% in Cycle II, accompanied by a substantial increase in mean writing scores. Classroom observations also indicated greater participation in group discussion, increased willingness to express ideas, and greater independence in completing writing tasks as the intervention progressed. The findings suggest that sequencing individual thinking, collaborative discussion, and writing through TTW, followed by a Canva-supported publication activity and targeted individual guidance, can provide a supportive instructional environment for descriptive writing. Rather than demonstrating the independent causal effect of either TTW or Canva, this study contributes a classroom-based pedagogical model that integrates cooperative learning, digital publication, and individualized support within an iterative writing intervention. Further controlled studies across broader educational settings are needed to examine the effectiveness and generalizability of this integrated approach.]]>
