Abstract

This study aimed to analyze EFL learners’ writings. It focused on portraying the most dominant grammatical and lexical errors in writing. It also explored challenges and alternative solutions from students’ perspectives. A qualitative approach in terms of descriptive design was applied in this study. The participants were thirty sophomores from four different faculties of a private university that were selected using stratified random sampling. Writing test, questionnaire, and interview were instruments to collect the data. Collecting, identifying, classifying, and describing were modified data analysis stages used in this study. The results revealed 445 grammatical errors and 111 lexical errors found in students’ writing. Limited knowledge of grammar and vocabulary, lack of practice and motivation, and unsatisfactory writing skills are the most common students’ writing challenges. The students also believed that review and feedback, various material, exercise and assignment exposure, and supporting technological tools are alternative solutions to anticipate the errors and challenges. The data of writing errors, challenges, and alternative solutions provide beneficial insights for the lecturers to formulate proper teaching methods, materials, and activities in writing.

However, draft (22.337 versus 18.929; p>0.0760) and paper grades (27.186 versus 27.971; p>0.6726) did not vary significantly whether or not students were provided with the guided questions. There were several intervening and potentially confounding factors, due to the nature of the paper writing process in our labs, which included peer review of paper drafts that were not limited to students within the treatment and control groups.. The results suggested that 1) The English writing ability post test mean score of students was higher than the pre test mean score at the 0.05 level of significance; 2) most students were satisfied with their own writing ability; 3) they enjoyed working in  group and  agreed that  mind  mapping technique was  a  useful technique and can be applied to non- English subjects.
