The researcher found that the Wiki helps in facilitating the acquisition of writing skills among the non-Arabic students particularly in assisting them developing their ideas during initial phase of acquiring the skills. The results also indicated that the Wiki service is a successful program in the processes of teaching and learning Arabic writing skills, since most of the students obtained good results in their Arabic writing tests conducted throughout the study. They also suggested that the students in this study employed cognitive strategies more in their process of acquiring the language. The outcome of the students’ motivations analysis proposed the use of Wiki as a tool for enhancing their writing skills as they are found to be highly motivated and engaged in the learning process which in turn contributes positively to their learning process.
