 note = {The benefits of learner Weblogs, or blogs as they are more commonly known, have been reported in various educational contexts in recent years. In the teaching and learning of English as a foreign language (EFL), learner-created blogs have been cited as a way of developing language skills and promoting learner autonomy (Harwood, 2010, Illes, 2012). This paper reports on the use of a class blog with a group of English language learners at Niigata University of International and Information Studies (NUIS). It describes the procedures involved in and the results of implementing blogging activities. Content analysis of the students’ blog posts and observation of in-class blogging activities revealed the benefits of the project. These included the development of language awareness and provision of genuine communication opportunities. However, some problems also emerged, mostly related to learner motivation, confidence and autonomy. The findings of this paper may be useful to those interested in the use of blogs in EFL learning contexts.},
