As I finish up my research project, I find I have another question.  The
students writing in the CALL class did improve but not by a significant
difference, whereas the SDAIE class did.  When the CALL class writes they
use the computer for most of their writing.  The question I have is does the
Auto-Correct feature on word processors help, inhibit or have no effect on
student writing progress in Second Language Acquisition?
