Feedback Complexity and Writing Skill: The Relative Effectiveness of No Feedback, Error-flagging and Response-contingent Feedback Typ
Abstract :
Despite controversies about the value of presenting written corrective feedback, research suggests that feedback has an undeniably significant role in improving performance in skill learning. However, little extant research has attended the different types of feedback ranged along a dimension of complexity. Thirty participants participated in this study in order to compare their writing accuracy under the no feedback, error-flagging, response-contingent and control conditions. The results of repeated measures, ANOVA revealed a significant main effect and interaction effect for feedback types on the accuracy improvement of learners from pre-test to post-test. Overall, these results suggest that unelaborated feedback is of limited pedagogical value, whereas elaborated feedback can contribute to linguistic accuracy in L2 writing.
