Hyland Ken (EDT) - Feedback in Second Language Writing : Contexts and Issues

Feedback in Second Language Writing

Now in its second edition, this volume provides an up-to-date, accessible, yet authoritative introduction to feedback on second-language writing for upper-undergraduate and postgraduate students, teachers, and researchers in TESOL, applied linguistics, composition studies, and EAP. Chapters written by leading experts emphasize the potential that feedback has for helping to create a supportive teaching environment, for conveying and modeling ideas about good writing, for developing the ways students talk about writing, and for mediating the relationship between students wider cultural and social worlds and their growing familiarity with new literacy practices. In addition to updated chapters from the first edition, this edition includes new chapters that focus on new and developing areas of feedback research including student engagement and participation with feedback, the links between second language acquisition and feedback research, automated computer feedback, and the use by students of internet resources and social media as feedback resources.
