Abstract Details

2016, Master of Arts, University of Toledo, English (English as a Second Language).
The effectiveness of corrective feedback is a topic that is often discussed in the field of L2 writing. Many arguments for the continuation of the use of corrective feedback have been argued; however, the most prominent is the desire to receive feedback from the students. This reason has been cited in multiple studies and is still among the most commonly argued reason against the abandonment of corrective feedback in the L2 writing classroom. However, many scholars argue that students’ desire for corrective feedback stem from their experience receiving it for the majority of their time in school. This study examined the influences students’ past experiences had on their beliefs and preferences regarding corrective feedback. Ultimately, this study will show that students are highly influenced by their experiences both in their home country as well as their time attending the University of Toledo’s ESL composition courses.
