Enhancing the Effectiveness of Focused Corrective Feedback on L2 English Learners’ Written TextsBlomberg, Kelly January 2015 (has links)
Studies have shown that accuracy of L2 writing is improved when teachers employ direct corrective feedback (CF). Less is known about the benefits of adding some form of metalinguistic explanation to the focused direct CF. In this study, thirty-six grade nine students from two different schools in Sweden completed two sets of written tasks, one week apart. All of the students’ work was corrected using focused direct CF, with only one linguistic feature (the accurate use of the present simple and the present continuous) being the primary focus. Some of the students also received an oral metalinguistic explanation in the form of a class lecture, while others received a written, personalised metalinguistic explanation. Eleven students were subsequently interviewed.The study showed that all of the students appreciated the CF that they received and the vast majority thought that it had helped them, even if their results did not reflect this. The students who received focused direct corrective feedback with an oral explanation in the form of a class lecture showed the most consistent improvement overall.

[en] PRESENT PERFECT INDICATIVE FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF PORTUGUESE L2: A USELESS VERB TENSE? / [pt] PRETÉRITO PERFEITO COMPOSTO EM PORTUGUÊS-LÍNGUA ESTRANGEIRA (PLE): UM TEMPO VERBAL INÚTIL?ANA HELENA VANNIER 10 October 2003 (has links)
[pt] Neste trabalho buscamos um melhor entendimento dos limites
e das limitações de emprego de um tempo verbal português: o
pretérito perfeito composto (PPC) do modo indicativo. Com
base na Semântica Funcional e por meio de um questionário
aplicado tanto a falantes de português-língua materna
quanto a aprendizes de português-língua estrangeira,
testamos, basicamente: a (im)possibilidade de intercâmbio
entre o PPC e o presente contínuo, a influência do valor
semântico de verbos principais e de adjuntos adverbiais, e
ainda, as noções de iteratividade e continuidade expressas
pelo PPC. / [en] In this study we set better limits for the uses of a
specific verb tense in Portuguese: the present perfect
indicative. We developed our work on the basis of
the theoretical apparatus of Functional Semantics. Native
Portuguese speakers and learners of Portuguese as 2nd
language completed a questionnaire. We tested basically if
the present perfect and the present continuous could be used
interchangeably, but also the influence of the semantic
value of main verbs and adjuncts, and the verb aspect
expressed by the present perfect.
