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