Process writing focuses on the process of creating writing rather than the end product (Tompkins, 1990). The creation of writing occurs in basically five stages: prewriting, drafting, revising, editing, and publishing. Prewriting is the planning and idea-gathering stage. Drafting refers to time spent composing a rough draft. Revising is the process of improving the draft. Students reread their work and share it with a partner or small group; they then make changes in the writing based on the feedback from their peers. Editing is the process of correcting mechanical errors. Publishing, or sharing, is accomplished in a wide variety of ways when the work is in final form. (Gardner & Johnson, 1997; Tompkins, 1990).
Apart from being carried out in real classroom, process writing can be implemented by using blogs.
