This study examined students' reflective writing via the usage of free Internet BlogSpot blog by exploring students' experiences in English for Academic Writing purpose (BEL 311) classes. A purposive sampling method was used to select 30 part three students of Faculty of Business Management at UiTM Johor. Three research questions were examined: (1) What are the most common types of reflective writing do the students tend to employ indirectly in their reflections?; (2) How far do the students use reflection-in-action and reflection-on-action in their reflections?; (3) How do students view their reflections in learning writing skills? For this study, data from 395 reflections were analyzed using a constant comparative analysis. The findings reported that the students' reflections were mostly Reflection-On-Action (88%) as compared to Reflection-In-Action (12%). The findings also recorded the occurrences of different types of reflective writing which were "Descriptive Reflection" (48%), "Descriptive writing" (43%), "Dialogic Reflection" (7%) and "Critical Reflection" (2%).
