Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) is playing a vital role in teaching English language to English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students. However, to best of my knowledge a little has been done in this regard to keep the students in line with the most recent advancements in this paradigm in Saudi Arabia. This paper evaluates the efficacy of CALL in improving students' writing skills and provides innovative techniques and robust strategies for long-lasting learning. The research seeks to fill in the knowledge gap regarding prospects of using CALL in the Kingdom with these main research questions; 1) how is the technology presently used for teaching the writing skills?; 2) what is the true impact of using CALL on students' writing skills?; 3) which area of the language (organization, structure, content, grammar) sees the most improvements by CALL to make them better writers? A quantitative research design was used for this study. The sample was sixty female students of a Saudi University divided equally into control and experimental groups. The elicited data analysis indicates that the performance scores of two groups differ significantly when taught through CALL. The research contends that using CALL can enhance students' writing skills over a short period of time when compared to the traditional ways of improving the writing skills. The current study also recommends that language classrooms should be equipped with all the latest technological facilities to encourage the use of CALL.

The present research argues that the current segregation between the reading and writing skills courses in EFL classes is a hard obstacle in developing the reading ability and writing skills proficiency in Saudi students at the graduate level. The sample included 64 undergraduate female students of a Saudi University, divided equally into the control group and the experimental group. A pre-test and post-test research design was used to collect the quantitative data. Two-tailed t-tests were applied to verify the results. The analysis of elicited data indicates significant progress in the experimental group's mean scores of the post-test when compared to the pre-test at p<.05. The study finds that integrated-skills teaching pedagogy has a significant impact on students' reading and writing proficiency over a short time. A structured questionnaire was administered on n=28 language teachers to identify teacher's perceptions regarding the integrated interpretation and writing courses. They expressed their dissatisfaction with the current segregated reading and writing courses and the learning outcomes. Most experienced teachers expressed a positive attitude towards the integration of these skills. Based on the findings, the researcher recommends incorporating integrated skills pedagogy in teaching reading and writing skills at the university level to enhance the students' performance.
