Abstract The extent to which teachers’ written corrective feedback (WCF) is conducive to ESL learners’ improvement has been discussed since Truscott’s claim in 1996. The mentioned debate continues because there has been lots of contrastive research studies with different results. This paper presents the results of a 2-month study of the effectiveness of WCF to 65 low intermediate Iranian learne...

the performance of selective media ltb, (leauryl tryptose broth), mmgm (minerals modified glutamate medium), bgbb (brilliant green bile broth), for the detection of e.coli in water in water, were compared and the following result were obtained: the mmgm found to be unsuitable as confirmatory medium for the detection of e.coli at 44 c, due to the occurrence of an unacceptable number of the false...

UNLABELLED Mutational activation of growth factor signaling pathways is commonly observed and often necessary for oncogenic transformation. Under physiologic conditions, these pathways are subject to tight regulation through negative feedback, which limits the extent and duration of signaling events after physiologic stimulation. Until recently, the role of these negative feedback pathways in o...

The current manuscript proposes a theory of how witnesses assess their confidence following a lineup identification, called the selective cue integration framework (SCIF). Drawing from past research on the postidentification feedback effect, the SCIF details a three-stage process of confidence assessment that is based largely on a conceptualization of feedback-produced confidence inflation as a...

this study is an attempt tofind the effect of four types of feedback(direct,underline,code,translation)on the writing performance of iranian learners ofjapanese as a foreign language.in this research,we have tried to suggest new ways of correcting students’writing through giving different kinds of feedback in the process of learning to write.the study focused on the accuracy of using prepositio...

Evidence that learning rule-based (RB) and information-integration (II) category structures can be dissociated across different experimental variables has been used to support the view that such learning is supported by multiple learning systems. Across 4 experiments, we examined the effects of 2 variables, the delay between response and feedback and the informativeness of feedback, which had p...

this research explores the effects of three computer-mediated feedback modalities, that is, elicitation, recast, and meta-linguistics, on the learning of english participial, gerund, and infinitival phrases among iranian intermediate-level efl learners. the overriding focus of the present study was to investigate whether different types of feedback given through form-focused computer-human exch...

this study aimed at investigating the effect of the type of feedback and practice on the acquisition of parameter index. for this purpose, 8 groups (each 12 subjects) were formed: constant practice group with self–controlled feedback, constant practice group with yoked feedback (yoked group), blocked practice group with self–controlled feedback, blocked practice group with yoked feedback, rando...
