RESEARCH ON ERROR CORRECTION AND
IMPLICATIONS FOR CLASSROOM TEACHING

 Should   learners’ errors be correct?

 When   should learners’ errors be corrected?

 How   should errors be corrected?

 Who   should do the correcting?
HOW SHOULD ERRORS BE CORRECTED?
   Explicit correction

   Recast

   Clarification request

   Metalinguistic clues

   Elicitation

   Repetition
IMPLICATIONS
   Consider the context

   Become aware of your current practices

   Practice a variety of feedback techniques

   Focus on the learner. It’s important to let learner
    self-correct
JAPANESE EFL STUDENTS’ PREFERENCES
TOWARD CORRECTION

   Students’ attitudes toward classroom oral error
    correction

   Their preferences for correction of different types of
    oral errors

   Their preferences for particular correction methods.
RESULTS
   Students had strong positive attitudes toward
    teacher correction of errors.

   A preference for correction of pragmatic errors over
    other kinds of errors.

   The most favored correction method was for the
    teacher to give the student a hint which might
    enable the student to notice the error and self-
    correct.
IMPLICATIONS FOR ME
   The need for accuracy more than fluency.

   Student-generated repairs are important in
    language learning

   Helps me select feedback techniques.
TEACHING CHILDREN IS TOUGH!
I HOPE MY STUDENTS WILL BE…
HAPPINESS IS EVERYWHERE!
Many THANKs to Dr. Yates, Dr. Eason, Dr.
Muchisky and my amazing TESL colleagues!
