| dc.description.abstract | Teacher's oral corrective feedback is one of the ways to facilitate and
improve students' EFL speaking skills by helping students recognize and correct
their mistakes. This research aims to identify the type of oral corrective feedback
used by an EFL teacher in an English communication-oriented classroom. An
observational study was used in this research by observing a class of 36 students
with a range of speaking ability from beginner to intermediate. The main
participant observed in this study was an English teacher at a senior high school in
Yogyakarta who was familiar with oral corrective feedback. This research
revealed that out of the six types of oral corrective feedback classified by Lyster
and Ranta (1997), the participant used four types during English communication-
oriented class: explicit corrections, recasts, requests for clarification, and
metalinguistic comments. Meanwhile, elicitation and repetition were not used
during a communication-oriented class. In addition, these findings showed that
explicit corrections were the most frequently used type and recast were the second
frequently used types of teacher's oral corrective feedback during a
communication-oriented class. Then, request for clarification and metalinguistic
comment were used once. | en_US |
