초록

An ongoing debate in the second language acquisition literature is whether written corrective feedback improves second language learners’ ability to write accurately. This debate has been primarily fueled by two opposing views on the value of correction in writing, namely Truscott (1996, 1999, 2007) and Ferris (1999, 2004). To date, the empirical findings on the effectiveness of written corrective feedback have been mixed; conclusive answers are not yet available. In order to examine the effectiveness of written corrective feedback, this paper performs a critical synthesis of feedback studies in terms of their research design, measurement, and data analysis. The paper argues that the conflicting results of these studies can be attributed to methodological inconsistencies in how corrective feedback is administered in second language writing studies.

Abstract

An ongoing debate in the second language acquisition literature is whether written corrective feedback improves second language learners’ ability to write accurately. This debate has been primarily fueled by two opposing views on the value of correction in writing, namely Truscott (1996, 1999, 2007) and Ferris (1999, 2004). To date, the empirical findings on the effectiveness of written corrective feedback have been mixed; conclusive answers are not yet available. In order to examine the effectiveness of written corrective feedback, this paper performs a critical synthesis of feedback studies in terms of their research design, measurement, and data analysis. The paper argues that the conflicting results of these studies can be attributed to methodological inconsistencies in how corrective feedback is administered in second language writing studies.
