Abstract: Motivation, what causes someone to act, both extrinsically and intrinsically, is very significant in determining the achievement of the objectives of a learning. An action class research which employ web blog as a teaching aid was conducted to examine students’ motivation and engagement in the Introduction to Journalism class. Eighty -five students enrolled in the Introduction on Journalism course were treated as the participants of the research. The students were assigned to make a web blog as a place to place their writings to be read by their friends and the public. The students’ involvement or engagement in the course is assessed from the number of the task they do, the quality of their writing while their motivation is seen from their feedback about the class at the end of the course. The research shows that 45% of the students got a very good grade (≥86); 27% good (≥80-85), and 19% fairly good (≥76-79), 5% passed, and 5% failed. Both the learning achievement and the students’ c omments indicate that using web blog as a teaching aid has satisfactorily made students engaged in the class and are enthusiastic about news writing.
