Listen now
Description
We're thrilled to announce our new partnership with Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada, to produce an 8-part mini series on the topic of Corrective Feedback. The series explores the area of corrective feedback through interviews with 8 scholars in the field. All interviews are conducted by students in Dr. Eva Kartchava's MA class at Carleton University as a means of assessment to connect researchers to their audience and have her students generate a greater level of understanding and investment in the research from the course. If you are interested in having a similar series produced for your class or institute, you can contact us: [email protected]  Dr. Rebecca Adams joins us for episode 3. Dr. Adams is an Associate Professor in the Department of English at the University of Memphis, USA. She is an applied linguist with interests in instructed second language learning. Her research work focuses on peer communication in second language classrooms, peer corrective feedback in peer interaction and learning, second language task complexity in peer interactions, and focus on form. In this episode, Dr. Adams highlights: the benefits of peer feedback when compared to teacher-provided feedback how to establish a conducive classroom environment for peer feedback to be most effective types of corrective feedback and their effectiveness whether students are actually hesitant to provide feedback to their peers if teachers should wait for peer feedback to occur naturally or if providing students with training is beneficial the connection between task-based language teaching and peer corrective feedback  *This interview was conducted by Marcel Zhang and Leo Liu. Partnership with Carleton University: Throughout the series, MA students from Dr. Kartchava's class will interview leading experts in the field of corrective feedback.
