corrective feedback (cf) and its different types have long absorbed many scholars and practitioners. as ellis (2009) mentioned some experimental studies need to be carefully designed to discover the relative effectiveness of each of these cf techniques. the goal of this qualitative study was to discover whether the employment of different cf strategies could bring about an attitudinal shift. to...

An underexplored question, and one with potentially far-reaching implications for the practice of written corrective feedback (WCF), is whether to mark a wide range errors (comprehensive feedback) or focus on few error types (focused in learners’ L2 writing. Despite limited evidence, it argued that comprehensive WCF unsystematic, inconsistent, confusing, intimidating; can cognitively affectivel...

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to explore the content of conversations, feedback style, and perceived usefulness of feedback to trainee surgeons when conversations were stimulated by a tool for assessing surgeons' non-technical skills. METHODS Trainee surgeons and their supervisors used the Non-Technical Skills for Surgeons in Denmark tool to stimulate feedback conversations. Audio recordings of ...

the research was aimed at finding out the effects of the implementation of writing feedback techniques and students’ writing anxiety on students’ writing ablity. experimental method of 3x2 factorial design was employed in the research. there were three experimental groups of students who were taught by using teacher feedback, peer feedback and the combination of peer and teacher feedback writin...

The current study aimed to develop a Formative Assessment of Writing (FAoW) instrument through operationalizing Black and Wiliam’s (2009) Formative Assessment (FA) and Hattie and Timperley’s (2007) feedback model. Following intuitive approach of scale construction (Hase & Goldberg, 1967), a comprehensive review of the literature was undertaken, and 30 Likert scale items were devised.  The items...

Mechanical feedback from massive stars, primarily from supernovae, can dominate ISM structuring and phase balance, thereby profoundly affecting galactic evolutionary processes. Our understanding of mechanical feedback is based on the adiabatic, wind-driven bubble model, applied on size scales ranging over three decades. Tests of the model, and our consequent understanding of feedback, are revie...

Accuracy enhancement of Content Based Image Retrieval System as well as reduction in semantic gap can be efficiently achieved with the help of Relevance Feedback. Many schemes and techniques of relevance feedback exist with many assumptions and operating criteria. In this paper, we have given a brief overview of recent techniques used for implementing relevance feedback in CBIR. This paper also...
