Fluency and Accuracy

Fluency is easier to acquire than accuracy Fluency is likely learned incidentally through regular speaking activities We might be focusing too much on fluency

Li, S. (2010). The Effectiveness of Corrective Feedback in SLA: A Meta‐Analysis. Language Learning, 60(2), Lyster, R. (2013). Roles for Corrective Feedback in Second Language Instruction. The Encyclopedia of Applied Linguistics. Lyster, R., & Ranta, L. (1997). Corrective feedback and learner uptake. Studies in second language acquisition, 19(01), Lyster, R., & Saito, K. (2010). Oral feedback in classroom SLA. Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 32(02), Lyster, R., Saito, K., & Sato, M. (2013). Oral corrective feedback in second language classrooms. Language Teaching, 46(01), Sheen, Y. (2010). Differential effects of oral and written corrective feedback in the ESL classroom. Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 32(02), Yang, Y., & Lyster, R. (2010). Effects of form-focused practice and feedback on Chinese EFL learners’acquisition of regular and irregular past tense forms. Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 32(02), Effective Feedback Strategies “I go to the movies last week.” PROMPTS Repetition – “You go to the movies?” Clarification – “Pardon?” Elicitation – “Go to the movies? Last week you…” Metalinguistic – “Use the past tense” REFORMULATIONS Explicit – “You should say ‘went to the movies.’” Recasts – “You went to the movies?”

Effective Feedback Strategies Immediate (face to face) Peer feedback Computer feedback Delayed feedback (Quinn, 2014)

Gu, S. & Reynolds, E.D. (2013). Imagining extensive speaking for Korean EFL. Modern English Education 14(4) Korean university students Extensive Speaking group: 1-3 minute daily recorded monologues every school day for 6 weeks No linguistic feedback given Control: no monologues Recordings were analyzed for proficiency based on OPI rubric Results: Extensive speaking group’s OPI scores had significant increases compared to control
