| Summary: | This study investigated the use of recast and elicitation in an online Facebook group interaction. Qualitative data were collected and analyzed by using the Facebook group feature and open coding system. The samples in this case study comprised of 4 participants of Form 4 students. The students were involved in 2 sessions of recast and single elicitation session. The errors produced and participants responses were collected from the 3 sessions. The data collected revealed that the occurrence of errors was similar to oral conversation and another 5 types of responses can be added to Lyster and Rantas (1997) list of responses. Based on the general observation participants were also found to use Electronic English which in this study was not ( treated as errors and their responses towards recast and elicitation were varied. Thus it is recommended that future study can find out why the types of responses occurred as well as to what extent the Electronic English can be allowed. |
