Learner Affect in Computerised L2 Oral Grammar Practice with Corrective Feedback
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Bodnar, Stephen; Cucchiarini, Catia; Penning de Vries, Bart; Strik, Helmer; van Hout, Roeland – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2017
Although corrective feedback (CF) has received much interest in the second language acquisition literature, relatively little research has investigated the relationship between CF and learner affect in concrete practice situations. The present study investigates learners' affective states and practice behaviour in a novel context: oral grammar…

New Language Knowledge Construction through Indirect Feedback in Web-Based Collaborative Writing
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Yang, Yu-Fen – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2018
This study reports on how students construct new language knowledge by indirect feedback in web-based collaborative writing. Indirect feedback (text organization, reader-based perspectives, and clarity of purpose) encourages students to negotiate meaning instead of merely copying peers' direct feedback on grammatical corrections. According to the…

Retesting the Limits of Data-Driven Learning: Feedback and Error Correction
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Crosthwaite, Peter – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2017
An increasing number of studies have looked at the value of corpus-based data-driven learning (DDL) for second language (L2) written error correction, with generally positive results. However, a potential conundrum for language teachers involved in the process is how to provide feedback on students' written production for DDL. The study looks at…

Spoken Grammar Practice and Feedback in an ASR-Based CALL System
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
de Vries, Bart Penning; Cucchiarini, Catia; Bodnar, Stephen; Strik, Helmer; van Hout, Roeland – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2015
Speaking practice is important for learners of a second language. Computer assisted language learning (CALL) systems can provide attractive opportunities for speaking practice when combined with automatic speech recognition (ASR) technology. In this paper, we present a CALL system that offers spoken practice of word order, an important aspect of…

Pronunciation Feedback from Real and Virtual Language Teachers
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Engwall, Olov; Balter, Olle – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2007
The aim of this paper is to summarise how pronunciation feedback on the phoneme level should be given in computer-assisted pronunciation training (CAPT) in order to be effective. The study contains a literature survey of feedback in the language classroom, interviews with language teachers and their students about their attitudes towards…

An Evaluation of Japanese CALL Systems on the WWW: Comparing a Freely Input Approach with Multiple Selection.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Yang, Jie Chi; Akahori, Kanji – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 1999
Compares two Web-based systems. The Japanese writing computer-assisted language-learning system, the T system, enables learners to key-in sentences freely, detects learners' errors and displays appropriate feedback messages to guide learners to correct errors themselves. The M system enables learners to input their answer from a multiple selection…
