Even though peer review enjoys sound theoretical support, classroom research has not always provided a clear picture of its effectiveness, particularly when it comes to form-focused editing. In addition to yielding conflicting findings with respect to the number of corrections students make based on peer feedback (Connor & Asenavage, 1994;…

The prevalence of the COVID-19 pandemic and its consequences, such as the closure of educational centers and the requirement to use virtual education, have all challenged students' learning. Students' mathematical misunderstandings can be regarded as one such challenge. While such problems may also occur in face-to-face training, where teachers…

Despite an extensive amount of research examining students' perceptions of alternative laboratory experiences, little focus has been aimed at the perceptions of adult learners. This two-phase mixed-methods study investigated the preferred at-home laboratory experience, and the factors that played a significant role in the user experiences, of…

The study explored six ESL university students' behavioral, cognitive, and affective engagement with e-rater feedback on local issues and examined any changes in students' engagement over two weeks. We explored behavioral engagement through the analysis of screencasts of students' e-rater usage and writing assignments. We measured cognitive and…

Guessing translations of foreign words ("hodei?"), before viewing corrective feedback ("hodei-cloud"), leads to better subsequent memory for correct translations than studying intact pairs ("hodei-cloud"), even when guesses are always incorrect (Potts & Shanks, 2014), but the mechanism underlying this effect is…

Homework is considered as a substantial process of learning especially for engineering education. However, due to the fast development of network technology, students now can easily find solution manuals on the internet. While some students use solution manuals to study, there are quite a few students who just copy homework solutions and lose…

Although a plethora of research has been conducted on written corrective feedback and timing of feedback in various teaching and learning contexts, there is a paucity of research on learners' preferences regarding different online written corrective feedback. Such a lacuna becomes prominent in EFL contexts, especially in grammar classes, where…

A frequent observation in the school context is that opportunities to learn from errors are often missed. However, a positive error climate may support learning from errors. For the school subject of mathematics, some findings about characteristics of the error climate already exist. But, a comparison of the error climate between different school…

This study was motivated by Truscott's (1996, 2004) scarcely empirically tested claims that written corrective feedback (WCF) processing hinders fluency in subsequent rewriting owing to learners' purposeful avoidance of making mistakes by composing shorter texts at a higher speed. It examined the writing fluency of the texts produced by eighteen…

Although corrective feedback (CF) has been studied, more studies still need to be conducted on this variable to check its effects on language learning. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of teachers' written and verbal CF during the formative assessment (FA) on English as a foreign language (EFL) learners' academic…

The paramount objective of English language teaching and learning is to achieve language competence in communicative purposes with the minimal learners' errors. To attain that goal, corrective feedback plays an important role due to its efficiency in developing learners' English capacity. However, the correlation between language students' and…

The purpose of this work was to address the overarching questions of how EFL Thai learners preferred corrective feedback strategies and whether there were any significant differences in preferences across learners' language ability levels. The quantitative study collected 418 Thai EFL learners' preferences for corrective feedback via a…

Teaching with acoustical guidance involves auditory feedback (e.g., a click sound when a desired behavior occurs) as part of a multicomponent intervention known as TAGteach. TAGteach has been found to improve performance in sport, dance, surgical technique, and walking. We compared the efficacy and efficiency of the standard TAGteach…

In this portrait, Maleka Donaldson vividly illustrates how two teachers in real-world, public school settings convey their expectations for kindergarten student performance and set the tone for learning from mistakes and feedback. Research in psychology and education has established the benefits of corrective feedback on learning but has not…

We investigated whether children's inhibitory control (IC) is associated with their ability to produce irregular past tense verb forms as well as learn from corrective feedback following overregularization errors. Forty-eight 3;6 to 4;5 year old children were tested on the irregular past tense and provided with adult corrective input via models of…
