キーワード : Peer Review CALL Rhetoric　抄録 : This research explored the basic writers' perception and qualitative efficacy in essay writing class through peer revision in CALL. The present study folded three main phases in it: computer-mediated, done by unskilled learners, and in dyads (face to face pairs). These phases exploited the merit of the humanistic and interactive peer review as well as the digital phase in word processor and on-lined dictionaries. With open-ended questionnaires, text length, readability score, the number of logical conjunctions was measured to analyze their reader-conscious attitudes of their narrative writings. The results indicated that computers were useful for writing a long story and that peer revision could promote easier, reader-friendly lexical selection. Also questionnaires showed 90% of the peer revision participants supported it. On the other hand, logical conjunctions in their products didn't increase, whereas adversative words such as 'but' and 'however', were constantly used in increasing text size. This comes from L1 interference described in the later chapter.
