related to corrective feedback (CF) and its role in SLA. By shading the light and discussing five empirical studies that address this issue, we intend to gather all the findings of these studies and come up with some general observations. But before that, it is an urgent matter to briefly define some of the terms related to feedback and illustrate the different theoretical stances towards its role in SLA. DEFINITIONS OF TERMS Various terms have been used to identify errors and provide CF in the SLA…

Error types for corrective feedback. Research on the error types that need corrective feedback has reported mixed findings, indicating that while corrective feedback influenced the improvement of linguistic knowledge, its effects depended on the types of errors.
