| Summary: | In the language learning classroom, teachers always provide
either positive evidence or negative evidence to
learners in response to the learners’ erroneous sentence
(Kim, 2004). The negative evidence is also known as corrective feedback. This paper describes various types of
corrective feedback provided to the learners when learning
a second language (L2). We also discuss how corrective
feedback facilitates language learning in five stages:
notice, locate, perceive, uptake and repair. We argue that
the nature of corrective feedback (explicit or implicit) has
some effect how the feedback works in language learning. |
