Online learning tools may help students in enhancing their writing skills. This study aims to figure out if online learning tools help to increase active participation in writing, encourage the mental development of students, identify students’ perception towards teacher’s role as facilitator and the relationship between the social context of students and their motivation in writing. One hundred and fifty-four English Language Studies students at The National University of Malaysia (UKM) participated in the study. Based on the analysis of students’ written work, the findings suggest that online learning tools integrated in writing instruction resulted in greater improvements in students’ writing performance.
