The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of Writing To Learn (WTL) activities on motivation strategies. For this purpose, a study group consisting of 9th grade students was employed. The students participating in the research consisted of one control (n:30; 17 girls, 13 boys) and two experimental groups (EG1, n:31; 17 girls, 14 boys; EG2, n: 30; 16 girls, 14 boys). The research was conducted with a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design which is one of the quasi-experimental designs. The data of the study were collected using quantitative and qualitative data collection tools. Güdülenme Stratejileri Ölçeği (GSÖ) adapted to Turkish by Büyüköztürk, Akgün, Kahveci & Demirel (2004) was used as the quantitative data collection tool. The qualitative data tool of the study was the interview protocol asked to sample group selected from the experimental group students (EG1, n:3; EG2, n:3). In the light of the findings of the research, it was proved that WTL activities increase the motivation of the students. In addition, it was found that the feedback given along with WTL enabled students to be more motivated than the non-feedback given students. Based on the results of the research, it was suggested that WTL activities should be used to teach motivation strategies
