| Research Abstract |
This study aimed at verifying multi-competence theory in Japanese writing education. Cook (2001) advocates that through learning a foreign language, learners can also expand their ability in their mother tongue. That is to say, multi-competence will be formed in the students' minds. This study demonstrated that Japanese students exhibited better-organized, more logically written passages in their Japanese writing after they received instruction on how to write paragraphs/ essays in English.
