iii ABSTRACT This minor research investigated the relationship between the attitudes and teaching practices of corrective feedback among a number of teachers of English Participants were those who were teaching English as a foreign language in Hanoi National University of Education with certain years of teaching experience The method to be employed was a survey questionnaire which involved 30 lecturers This was followed by the researcher’s classroom observation of 12 lessons by three teachers chosen from the participants from the survey They were teaching speaking skill for English majors in the same faculty at the university T1 was in charge of a class with 37 sophomores, T1 with 28 juniors and T3 with 32 seniors Finally, one-to-one informal interviews were administered in a semi-structured format with these three teachers Accordingly, the data were collected both quantitatively and qualitatively through a procedure of note-taking, then combining with the results from informal interviews The process of data collection was carried out during the first four weeks of the first semester, academic year 2012-2013 The findings revealed both differences and similarities between participants’ attitudes towards error treatment and their practical application in their speaking classroom settings z

PART I: INTRODUCTION Rationale It is widely approved that errors are unavoidable in language learning, especially in speaking The issue of how teachers respond to students’ language errors, i.e corrective feedback, has been investigated over the last decades Having been widely known under a number of terms, such as “negative evidence”, “repair” and “negative feedback” (Lyster and Ranta, 1997), corrective feedback is commonly referred to by second language teachers As a result of their in-depth studies, corrective feedback has been defined and classified into different types Also, there have been investigations into the relationship between teacher’s corrective feedback and learner uptake on an international scale However, few research findings show how language teachers themselves know and feel about corrective feedback, as well as how far it is involved in their practical teaching This has inspired the author to come up with the idea of exploring that relationship so that further improvement can be made to promote learners’ language competence Aims of the study This study examines teachers’ attitudes towards the correction of spoken errors through one-to-one interviews and a belief questionnaire It also investigates the relationship between those standpoints and their teaching practice in classroom context and accordingly suggests more effective ways to deal with students’ spoken errors For convenience, the two terms “error” and “mistake” are used interchangeably in this study To fulfill these purposes, this research intends to answer the following questions: What are teachers’ attitudes towards oral corrective feedback? How these attitudes affect and relate to their teaching practice within their classroom settings? z

Scope of the study This study focuses on how corrective feedback of spoken errors is perceived and applied by teachers at Hanoi National University of Education Within this scope, the research aims to explore the connection between teachers’ perception and practice, and thereby propose efficient approaches to the treatment of students’ oral mistakes Methods of the study The researcher administered a survey questionnaire on teachers to collect quantitative data on their perspectives of corrective feedback Further data were then accumulated both quantitatively and qualitatively through an observing process of twelve lessons by three out of the thirty participants in the survey Finally, qualitative data were drawn out from three semi-structured personal interviews for more specific information about the use of corrective feedback inside their classrooms Overview of the study This study consists of three major parts: Introduction, Development, and Conclusion; references, and appendices Part I: Introduction – This part presents the rationale, the aims, scope, methods, and the organization of the study Part II: Development – This part is divided into the following three chapters: Chapter 1: Theoretical background – presents the theoretical framework of corrective feedback, including its definition, classification, importance, participants, and timings Chapter 2: Methodology – gives details on the participants, data collection instruments, and procedure Chapter 3: Findings and discussion – analyzes and discusses the results Part III: Conclusion – This part

40 With reference to feedback timings, the highest percentage of agreement fell into the correction after a series of errors and at the end of an activity ensuring there was no interruption of students’ speech flow However, some SLA researchers present theoretical arguments for immediate correction not only in accuracy but also in fluency activities Among those are Basturkmen, Loewen, and Ellis (2001) who engaged themselves in frequent immediate corrective feedback but did not appear to disrupt the overall communicative flow of the lessons The last category of corrective feedback is form, in which the most frequently agreed upon were the oral form alone and the combination of oral and written form on the board In answering the second question (How these attitudes affect and relate to their teaching practice within classroom setting?), the study found both consiste ncy and inconsistency in teachers’ perception and practical teaching For the sources of feedback, although peers and teachers were supported by most respondents, they received just averagely less than one third of the entire feedback moves in all the three classroom settings In other words, there was a big gap between perceptions on error correctors and practices, except for self-correction As explained in the interviews, peer and teacher correction was ignored because the teachers were well aware and appreciated the benefits of self-correction in creating opportunities for students’ consolidation and self-improvement The second category inquired into the time of error correction A quick consideration into the data collected from the survey questionnaire versus classroom observation can unveil significant conformation in the participants In more details, the information and figures collected from the two researching tools were consistent in the categories of giving feedback immediately after a series of erroneous utterances, at the end of the lesson, and at the beginning of the next lesson However, the figure of feedback turns as immediate correction after a single error was drastically inconsistent when it was z

41 disapproved by more than half of the survey respondents but used in the most favorable manner in the three classrooms This, according to the justification collected from the interviews, was resulted from a number of factors, mainly including teacher’s annoyance at silly mistakes, habit of interruption in the face of an incorrect utterance, concerns about their short-term memory, or assurance for a potential improvement in students’ language proficiency In the third category on the form of feedback, there was no contradiction in the form of oral feedback perceived and practiced by the three participating practitioners On the other hand, the statistics in the other two categories presented a noticeable inconsistency More strikingly, while supportive standpoint on written notes for individual error makers accounted for almost one half of all the 30 survey participants, this form was completely discarded from the observed lessons An explanation for this disuse was that written notes, as for the interviewees, were both time-consuming and not beneficial to the whole class Finally, significantly different trends were found in choosing the right feedback strategies The most outstanding feature is great dissimilarities between the survey partakers’ views and the practical teaching These gaps were found in clarification request, elicitation, and body language in all the three teachers whose lessons were observed by the researcher In spite of a clear preference for these feedback techniques revealed from the survey data, they were used at almost no time in the observed classes, especially at no time at all by T1 and T3 Through the interviews, it was made clear that the teachers all felt that these techniques were not effective in their own classrooms mainly because of students’ likely misperception of the teacher’s intention It is also worth noticing the use of the other feedback techniques There was clearly a big gap between what was perceived and what was conducted in the real teaching contexts of T1 and T2 in explicit correction, whereas a converse trend was found in recasts Furthermore, T2’s practical use of repetition was contradictory with the general z

42 point of views disclosed from the survey On the whole, this category alone illustrated striking contrasts falling into the entire set of feedback techniques However, each of the three interviewed teachers had their own reasons for which perceptions were different from practices Pedagogical implications In the light of the findings analyzed and discussed in the previous sessions, this research has found some pedagogical implications However, as there were only a small number of participants and the research site was not varied, these implications were drawn and meant for use merely within the particular studied classroom settings Based on the findings from the interviews, it appears clear that self-correction can be the most beneficial to the error makers themselves Therefore, although it might take time to conduct, teachers are advised to provide the most favorable atmosphere for self-repair to take place Together with the observed classes, the results from the interviews also suggest an occasional use of explicit correction as this does not lead to self-repair and hence does not effectively facilitate negotiation for meaning The use of body language, clarification request and repetition should be thought over, simultaneous with a careful consideration of students’ proficiency level and the seriousness of the error Or, in other cases, the teacher should also take account of a mixture between these techniques with others Another implication is that in order to avoid interrupting and discouraging students’ speech flow, and even worse, humiliating them, the teachers should wait until their turn ends instead of immediately interfering into their talk This may lead to a concern about the teacher’s failure to remember all the errors already made, but can be avoided with some notes on the board, pieces of paper, or even a laptop Finally, as suggested by the data from the interviews, teachers are inclined to spontaneously make their own decision on which form of correction will fit well in particular situation A mere oral form may be the most suitable when the time is z

43 limited and the errors are not too serious On the other hand, this might be supplemented with some notes on the board so that it can be beneficial to all learners of dissimilar proficiency levels Written notes might work well primarily in a classroom where students not have the same cultural background and therefore might be presumed to be really time-consuming and the least effective in the studied classroom settings Limitations and suggestion for further research There are unavoidable limitations of the study Firstly, a limited number of classroom observations could not help draw a completely reliable conclusion on whose perceptions and practices were more closely related Also, the data recorded from observed lessons would have been more reliable had the written notes by the researcher been assisted by a second researcher and/ or a high-quality tape-recorder Secondly, although an experience sharing session on types of corrective feedback was held prior to the current study, this could not entirely ensure participants’ comprehensive understanding of the items, which would certainly enable valid answers Finally, although this minor research found both considerable consistency and big gaps between teachers’ viewpoints and teaching practice in EFL classrooms, it was not able to generalize where there existed similarities and differences the most often Regardless of the above-mentioned limitations, this research was still significant in terms of the following points: (1) the experience sharing session prior to the study implementation; (2) the inclusion of corrective feedback forms in all data collection tools; and (3) the comparison between perceptions and practices Those features were generally discounted by many previous research papers This paper did not consider variables in teachers’ ages and teaching experiences, nor did it reflect on students related factors like age, proficiency level, and anxiety Furthermore, the researcher disregarded the basis on which teachers made their choice in the survey questionnaire Therefore, the next phase of the study in error correction z
