Abstract:

This book sums a research study that explored learners’ engagement with
written corrective feedback (WCF) and subsequent second language (L2) writing
performance changes. A two-component intervention was implemented to reveal
the influence of different learning environments and WCF delivery on the L2
writing performance. The first component explored the influence of using
different modes on the learners’ engagement with WCF; computer-mediated and
handwritten CF were used in two separate classes. The second component
explored the influence of thinking-aloud (TA) as a mediating strategy on
learner engagement with WCF within the different modes. A quasi-experimental
design was applied to measure the learners’ development in the targeted
skills, namely writing fluency, grammatical accuracy and grammatical
competence. In the TA sessions, only the changes in L2 writing fluency were
monitored.

The study revealed that optimal conditions for the intervention influenced
learners’ engagement with WCF and enhanced their L2 writing performance. When
the learners received meaningful WCF and engaged with it through
learner-regulation strategies, agency and efficacy, their L2 writing
performance was enhanced. Mediating strategies, such as TA, are recommended
alongside affective CF episodes to encourage learners’ constructive engagement
with WCF through meaningful activities that stimulate their cognitive
engagement without hindering their affective and social engagement.
