What should language and writing teachers do about giving students written corrective feedback? Surveying theory, research, and practice on this important and sometimes controversial practice (also known as "error/grammar correction") and its impact on second language acquisition and writing development, the volume critically analyzes and synthesizes parallel and complementary strands of research on error/feedback (both oral and written) in second-language acquisition (SLA) and on the impact of error correction in second-language writing (SLW). This is the first book to intentionally connect these two separate but important lines of inquiry. Offering state-of-the-art treatment of a topic that is highly relevant to both SLA and SLW researchers and practitioners, it moves from theory to a detailed analysis of the research on oral corrective feedback, written corrective feedback, and includes applications of research and theory to pedagogical practice.

Industry Reviews

"As an interdisciplinary scholar working in the fields of foreign language methodology and pedagogy, linguistics, and education, I found that Bitchener and Ferris provide an excellent model for connecting parallel strands of literature in productive and accessible ways."-Teachers College Record
