Correction techniques<br />

A. Ignore <strong>the</strong> mistake<br />

B. Use self-correction<br />

C. Draw a time line on <strong>the</strong> board<br />

D. Use finger correction.<br />

1. You have used a correction code to show learners where <strong>the</strong>y have<br />

made mistakes in <strong>the</strong>ir writing. You now ask <strong>the</strong>m to correct <strong>the</strong>ir own<br />

mistakes. You now ask <strong>the</strong>m to correct <strong>the</strong>ir own mistakes.<br />

2. You are working with a class <strong>of</strong> elementary ten-year-olds who are doing<br />

a fluency activity. One <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> learners is talking with a class about her<br />

pet. She says: ‘My rabbit eat lettuce. ‘You let her continue talking.<br />

3. You are doing a controlled practice activity. One <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> learners says: ‘I<br />

have been working last week. ‘You show her a diagram.<br />

4. A learner is repeating <strong>the</strong> instructions for a activity and says: Then we<br />

choose/tri./(three) objects.’ You just listen.<br />

5. You are focusing on spoken <strong>language</strong> and <strong>the</strong> use <strong>of</strong> contractions. A<br />

learner says: ‘I am going swimming tomorrow, ‘You want to show her<br />

where <strong>the</strong> mistake is. You use your hand.<br />

6. An advanced learner asks you: ‘Can you borrow me a pencil, please?’<br />

You ask him to him to think about what he has said and to try again.<br />

Giving feedback<br />

<br />

How do we give feedback?<br />

Giving feedback is giving information to learners about <strong>the</strong>ir <strong>learning</strong>. Feedback<br />

can focus on learners' <strong>language</strong> or skills, <strong>the</strong> ideas in <strong>the</strong>ir work, <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

behaviour, <strong>the</strong>ir attitude to <strong>learning</strong> or <strong>the</strong>ir progress. Sometimes we give<br />

feedback to <strong>the</strong> whole class, at o<strong>the</strong>r times we give feedback to small groups or<br />

individual learners. The purposes <strong>of</strong> feedback are to motivate learners and to<br />

help <strong>the</strong>m understand what <strong>the</strong>ir problems are and how <strong>the</strong>y can improve.<br />
