About

Wen-Chi Vivian Wu is a leading scholar in computer-assisted language learning (CALL) and second-language writing, with a particular focus on how digital tools reshape feedback and revision processes in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) contexts. Her most-cited work, “EFL writing revision with blind expert and peer review using a CMC open forum” (2014, 68 citations), demonstrates her pioneering approach to leveraging computer-mediated communication (CMC) to facilitate anonymous, cross-institutional peer feedback—a method that empowers students to engage more critically with revision while reducing social anxiety. Wu’s research bridges the gap between technology and pedagogy, showing how structured online forums can replicate and even enhance traditional peer review dynamics. Her contributions have practical implications for curriculum design in EFL writing classrooms, offering scalable models for integrating expert and peer input. Beyond this flagship study, Wu continues to explore the intersections of learner autonomy, digital literacies, and collaborative writing, making her work essential reading for educators and researchers interested in evidence-based CALL practices. Her scholarship consistently emphasizes learner-centered, technology-enhanced environments that foster deeper engagement and measurable writing improvement.
