Abstract:

Edubba is a CD-ROM based environment designed to support the development of academic writing and to a lesser extent, academic reading, for learners who are at an intermediate or higher level of English language development. It derives its title from the ancient Sumerian word for the tablets upon which cuneiform writings were inscribed, as well as the libraries in which those tablets were archived: in short, "a place to write." While Edubba was originally conceived of for use by Junior High school learners and beyond, it has been successfully tested both with slightly younger learners in senior elementary grades and with young adult learners in college labs in Canada.
