Abstract
We conducted a writing activity involving an interview-based report for further communication among students and not for academic or practical purpose. The activity included the following steps: read an interview-based article as a model, choose a theme on which one would like to be interviewed, interview each other, write the first draft of the report, check the interviewee's draft, get comments from other students, and prepare the final report. After the class, in a questionnaire, some students mentioned that they better understood their classmates and enjoyed the activity because they could choose the themes. Moreover, in their reports, the students adopted some expressions of quotation and the writing style of the model article.
