luanvanchat@agmail.com CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION I Rationale It has long been realized that the forms and uses of a given language reflect the cultural values of the society in which the language is spoken Linguistic competence alone is not enough for learners of a language to be competent in that language (Krasner, 1999) Therefore, together with learning and using a foreign language, language users should deepen their understanding of its culture in order to communicate successfully and appropriately It can be said that “politeness” is one of the most important categories in communication and pragmatics study, especially communication/pragmatics Politeness strategies are applied in cross-cultural consciously and unconsciously in communication in everyday social interaction These strategies help to make participants feel satisfied because their “face” is respected This fact is much truer in such high context culture as Vietnam Towards successful communication in the real world, some cross-cultural studies such as requesting, refusing, thanking, apologizing have been conducted so far to help Vietnamese students of English avoid confusion when expressing themselves As a teacher of English, the author has to a lot of interactions with her students in the class setting and thus, realizes some of the problems in communication between teachers and students, among which is the uncomfortable and stressful feeling of students when interacting When the author attended some classes of American teachers, she found it interesting when she realized that there are many differences between the feedback that American and Vietnamese teachers give to their students For the above-mentioned reasons, the author conducts the study entitled “Face-saving Strategies in Teachers’ Oral Feedback in English classrooms: A Vietnamese – American cross-cultural study” Such is her hope that her study will be a contribution to the understanding of the nature of this activity across cultures II Aims of the study The aims of the study are: LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com  To investigate the face-saving strategies used by American and Vietnamese teachers when giving oral feedback to students in English classrooms  To clarify major similarities and differences between American and Vietnamese teachers when giving different types of feedback  To provide implications in English Language Teaching and contribute to increasing cross-cultural awareness among English language teachers and learners III Scope of the study The study deals with verbal aspects of the act of giving feedback The Paralinguistic and non-verbal factors in communication are beyond the scope of this study Feedback itself can be given in the oral or written form As it is a study on face-to-face communication, the study focuses on oral form only Besides, feedback can be seen in the light of linguistics or teaching methodology; however, in this study, only linguistics aspects are taken into account Another point to be noticed is that a feedback can be a positive or a negative evaluation on students‟ performance Yet, in this study, only feedbacks for negative performance, seen as obvious FTA, are targeted Last but not the least, only oral feedbacks produced by teachers in speaking and writing sessions are examined in this study as they are considered as productive skills while reading and listening are perceptive, thus, there are not many chances for the diversification of feedback In short, the study especially focuses on face-saving strategies used by teachers in giving oral feedback across Vietnamese and American languages and cultures IV Methodology The research is conducted via quantitative and qualitative, descriptive and comparative methods The data was collected via questionnaires termed Discourse Completion Tasks (DCT), which was logically and empirically validated before it is used as a data collection instrument The instrument used to construct validation of the situations designed for the DCT is Metapragmatic Questionnaire (MPQ) Then data will be analyzed using Independent Samples t-test and other functions of SPSS 15.0 (Methodology will be further detailed in Chapter III) LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com The pronunciation of one of your students is not good at all You give feedback to him/her by saying: In the speaking class, one of your students is not active enough; he/she almost keeps silent during the lesson You want him/her to improve this situation You give feedback to your student by saying: Thank you for your cooperation!
