This document discusses a study that promoted learner autonomy for self-correction in English writing among Thai university students. The study engaged 32 students in interactive writing tasks that required self-evaluation, peer review, and self-correction of drafts using technology without teacher feedback. Results showed significant improvement in writing scores from pre-to-post-tests. A questionnaire found that while students were unsure initially if they could correct their own mistakes, many believed they could become better writers by using strategies and technology for self-directed learning. The study suggests promoting autonomy this way is feasible but future research should include strategy training and measure autonomy gains directly.

Secondary School English Language Teachers’ Frequently Used Corrective Feedba...inventionjournals
The purpose of this study is to find out secondary school English language teachers' frequently used corrective feedback preferences, how often and why they use these certain corrective feedback styles in their classes. Qualitative research methods are employed and case study design is used in the research. 10 teachers and the classes they lecture are selected in the province of Tokat, Turkey and interviews, observations and written documents are conducted to collect data. The interviews‟ data are analyzed by using MAXQDA program. Frequencies of oral and written feedback are calculated in observations and written documents. Findings show that the students mostly make pronunciation errors and teachers correct the students‟ errors themselves. However, they think that peer correction and students‟ own corrections are more effective than correction by teacher. Observations show that teachers most frequently use recast and translation methods while correcting oral errors. As a strategy for providing written correction, they mostly use direct corrective feedback and make reformulation. This research shows that corrective feedback types and frequencies change according to teachers and also to the level of students

What Does Effective Writing Instruction Look Like? Practices of Exemplary Wr...TDWolsey
Abstract
Recent research indicates that pre-service teachers receive insufficient instruction in the teaching of writing (Graham, et al., 2014). A study of 50 U.S. teachers in preparation found that only about 25% had a writing-intensive methods course in their program (Myers, et al., 2016). Using constructivist grounded theory, researchers investigated the modes and methods of 18 teacher educators across the U.S., the content of writing methods courses, how they structured learning experiences for new teachers, and the theoretical and practical models of writing that were employed.Data were gathered through collection of course syllabi and interviews with writing faculty. Data were analyzed through open coding for themes. The research team triangulated the data for reliability and did member checks to refine the themes. Findings showed that exemplary writing instructors viewed writing as a tool of power for social justice. They sought to develop teacher candidates who saw themselves as writers by employing a process writing approach across a variety of genres, taught in writing methods classes. The implications and the applications to k-12 classrooms will be discussed in the session.

Promoting autonomy for self correction in esp writing through task-induced load glo call 2015pptx
1. Promoting learner autonomy for self-correction in ESP writing
through task-induced load

2. Promoting learner autonomy for self-correction
Claim made by Benson (2001) :
Learner autonomy as a multidimensional construct
A sufficient account of learner autonomy in language learning
should include three levels of control over learning
-1. Control over learning management,
-2. Control over cognitive processes and
-3. Control over learning content.
Murase (2007): All these are interrelated.
3. Promoting learner autonomy for self-correction
Benson (2011) :
• Educational technologies and autonomy have always been there.
• New challenge is that the new generations of technologies like Web 2.0
and other internet based ones do not tend to foster autonomy or train.
• They presuppose autonomy.
4. Promoting learner autonomy for self-correction
Jiménez Raya, Lamb & Vieira (2007) :
Both teacher and learner autonomy
competence that involve attitudinal dispositions, knowledge, abilities to
develop self-determination, social responsibility and critical awareness to
develop learners as self-determined, socially responsible and critically
aware participants in (and beyond) educational environments, within a
vision of education as (inter)personal empowerment and social
transformation.
5. Promoting learner autonomy for self-correction
A continuous process in which different degrees of self-
management and self-regulation may take place at different
moments and in diverse aspects of learning.
Denotes a proactive and interactive role and it is desirable and
feasible in a formal education context.
This study engaged learners in interactive roles and investigated
whether it is feasible or not in a formal educational context.
