In language teaching learning, it is undeniable that the technology is also applied in assessing students’ language skills including writing. In assessing writing, in a common type, the process is carried out manually or typed in a word document.

Equally important, the developments on the website require continuous improvement, especially for the variation of the questions including to add video and audio integration eventually.
