Cornillie, Frederik; Baten, Kristof; De Hertog, Dirk – Research-publishing.net, 2017
This paper reports on the potential of Oral Elicited Imitation (OEI) as a format for output practice, building on an analysis of picture-matching and spoken data collected from 36 university-level learners of German as a second language (L2) in a web-based assessment task inspired by Input Processing (VanPatten, 2004). The design and development…
