Because of the Internet access, the use of Information and Communications Technology （ICT） by language teach- ers is becoming increasingly widespread. This article illustrates the status quo of teaching English writing in middle schools, ana- lyzes teachers＂ understanding of ICT in its narrow sense, clarifies the necessity of improving teaching writing by applying ICT, and puts forward how to implement a variety of functions of ICT in teaching writing.
