Teacher Elicitation of Self-Correction in Korean High School EFL Writing Conferences
Seungmoo Jung; Sun-Young Oh
English Teaching, v80 n1 p119-147 2025
Writing conferences are one-on-one feedback sessions that enable teachers and students to engage in constructive interactions to improve students' writing. While interacting individually, a teacher can use various feedback strategies to improve the quality of a student's writing. This study examined how a secondary English teacher elicited students' self-correction of writing issues during EFL writing conferences conducted in Korean (L1) as part of an after-school English program at a Korean high school. One English teacher and five first-year students participated in writing classes for two weeks during the winter vacation. Their conversations were video-recorded and analyzed using Conversation Analysis. Findings revealed that the teacher elicited the student's self-correction through four key strategies: (1) metalinguistic clues, (2) building on initial corrections, (3) leveraging morphological knowledge, and (4) guiding students through a stepwise construction of sentence elements. This study can enhance our understanding of corrective feedback in secondary EFL writing conferences and offer insights for improving teacher-student feedback interactions.
