Written Corrective Feedback and Its Challenges for Pre-Service ESL Teachers
Danielle Guénette, Roy Lyster

This study explored the emerging corrective feedback (CF) practices of a group of 18 pre-service English as a second language (ESL) teachers. Serving as tutors to a group of 61 high school ESL learners during a school semester, the pre-service teachers provided CF on texts written by the learners and exchanged via e-mail. The authors analyzed the types of CF they used and the types of errors they chose to focus on, along with the factors that explained their choices. Quantitative analyses of the frequency distribution of CF types relative to error types and qualitative analyses of data collected through journals and interviews confirmed that, similar to their in-service colleagues, pre-service teachers overused direct corrections at the expense of more indirect CF strategies. Drawing on the challenges faced by the pre-service teachers, the authors highlight the importance of implementing such opportunities for pre-service teachers to engage with and reflect on their emerging CF practices.

Exploring a Practice-Based Approach to Foreign Language Teacher Preparation: A Work in Progress
Francis J. Troyan, Kristin J. Davin, Richard Donato

This article describes the implementation of a practice-based approach to foreign language (FL) teacher preparation. After briefly framing the discussion in relation to the literature on the practice-based approach in teacher education – including Phase I of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) Research Priorities – we present the implementation and integration of this approach in the context of FL teacher preparation. The successes and challenges encountered throughout the implementation experience are discussed, and recommendations are made for practice-based course design in FL teacher preparation programs and for future research on the practice-based approach.

Exploring the Relationship Between Training, Beliefs, and Teachers’ Corrective Feedback Practices: A Case Study of a Novice and an Experienced ESL Teacher
Luciana Junqueira, YouJin Kim

Using multiple data sources (observations, stimulated recalls, interviews), this study investigated the relationship between previous training, teaching experience, corrective feedback (CF) beliefs, and practices of a novice and an experienced ESL teacher. The findings revealed that both teachers provided similar amounts of CF and had comparable amounts of learner uptake and repair in their classes. However, the experienced teacher generated more teacher-learner interactions and more types of CF, which were also more balanced across linguistic targets. Teaching experience and teacher training did not appear to impact the teachers’ beliefs on the inefficacy of CF, while “apprenticeship of observation” seemed to have a greater influence on the belief systems of both teachers. These results point to several pedagogical implications for teacher education programs, which are discussed in the paper. DOI: 10.3138/cmlr.1536

Adolescent Multilingual Writer’s Negotiation of Multiple Identities and Access to Academic Writing: A Case Study of a Jogi Yuhak Student in a US High School
Youngjoo Yi

This article describes a longitudinal case study of Hoon (a pseudonym), an adolescent multilingual writer, with respect to his negotiation of multiple identities and access to academic writing practices. Through an inductive analysis of multiple data sources (interviews, observations, literacy artifacts, and field notes), the researcher observed that while negotiating a stigmatized ESL-student identity and an academic achiever identity, Hoon developed some survival strategies through school. Notably, those strategies acted as a double-edged sword in that they helped Hoon earn high grades but prevented him from engaging in extensive academic literacy activities. Findings from this study provide a more in-depth understanding of the nuanced experiences, challenges, and characteristics of adolescent multilingual writers and suggest a need for further examination of social contexts in which students construct positive identities, access various writing practices, and grasp the value of writing (whether in their first or second language) for academic and other purposes.
