This case study investigates how one of the tools, namely wiki can be used in writing as a process (versus writing as a product) activity in providing feedback to students’ academic report. Data consisted of the feedback given and revisions made by ESL engineering students via wiki. The students’ first and final drafts were also evaluated for writing improvement.

Findings show that they made various surface level revisions after receiving feedback via wiki and these revisions resulted in an improvement in their final draft.
