this study aims to better understand the effect of practice schedule and feedback providing types. in two separate experiments the contextual interference effect in bandwidth and self-control feedback conditions on relative and absolute timing learning was examined. in experiment i, the effect of contextual interference using bandwidth and self-control feedback on absolute timing learning (para...

since the emergence of the process-oriented approach to second language writing instruction two main questions have been what and how error feedback should be given to the students. the question of whether teachers should provide feedback on grammar in the writing assignments of english as a foreign language students, and if so how, has been a matter of considerable debate in the field of secon...

the present study-both qualitative and quantitative--explored fifty efl learners’ preferences for receiving error feedback on different grammatical units as well as their beliefs about teacher feedback strategies. the study also examined the effect of the students’ level of writing ability on their views about the importance of teacher feedback on different error types. data was gathered throug...

the objective of the present paper is to shed some light on peer feedback in efl writing courses. in recent years, with regard to teaching writing, there has been a total shift of approach, from product-orientation to process-orientation. a key component of the latter is peer assessment in which learners read each other's compositions and provide feedback to the writer, based on the teache...

researchers have suggested that interactional feedback which is between teacher and learner during their writing is associated with l2 learning because it prompts learners to notice l2 forms. this paper reports a classroom-based study that investigated the role of feedback in socio-cultural theory. in this study, 12 efl learners performed on three writing tasks and were provided with a three-st...

introduction: feedback cards are recommended as a feasible tool for structured written feedback delivery in clinical education while effectiveness of this tool on the medical students’ performance is still questionable. the purpose of this study was to compare the effects of structured written feedback by cards as well as verbal feedback versus verbal feedback alone on the clinical performance ...

L2 written corrective feedback has been investigated from different perspectives in SLA research (e.g. Ahmadian & Tajabadi, 2015; Bitchener & Knoch, 2010; Ferris, 2006). Taking the cognitive and sociocultural paradigms into account, the aims of the current study are twofold: Firstly, it attempts to find if corrective feedback is effective in improving the linguistic accuracy of L2 learners' ten...

Keyword Spotting is a well-known method in document image retrieval. In this method, Search in document images is based on query word image. In this Paper, an approach for document image retrieval based on keyword spotting has been proposed. In proposed method, a framework using relevance feedback is presented. Relevance feedback, an interactive and efficient method is used in this paper to imp...

The effect of error feedback on the accuracy of output task types such as editing task, text reconstruction task, picture cued writing task, and dictogloss task, has not been clearly explored. Following arguments concerning that the combination of both corrective feedback and output makes it difficult to determine whether their effects were in combination or alone, the purpose of the present st...
