The subjects of this study were 25 ninth graders of a Chinese liberal art class in a public school in Hsinchu City. A teaching model of "Combination of Reading and Writing" applied to the writing process of "Planning, Translating, and Reviewing" was adopted in the four-unit writing classes for eight weeks.

Based on the data analysis, results showed as the follows: (1)Integrating of mobile devices into cooperative learning could stimulate students’ interests on Chinese writing.
