    (Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (España). Facultad de Filología. Departamento de Filologías Extranjeras y sus Lingüísticas, 2020-06) Pacheco Plaza, Marina
    This study examines written errors in a corpus of 30 compositions produced by 15 participants. The participants are 6th Grade students of a bilingual school in the South of the Community of Madrid; 7 girls and 8 boys (aged 10-11). All of them are students of English as a second language (L2), whose first language (L1) is Spanish. This paper identifies the most important students’ written errors, presents their common sources, and analyses them thoroughly with the aim of helping the students correct their errors and avoid making mistakes. This study also aims to shed light on what is the most effective type of feedback and the language (the L1 or the L2) that should be used by the teacher when providing it. The results will provide insight into language learning because it will provide information regarding the teaching practice.

    The impact of error analysis and feedback in English second language learning
    (Academic Research Publishing Group, 2021-01-13) Sánchez Calderón, Silvia; Pacheco Plaza, Marina
    This study examines written errors in a corpus of 30 compositions produced by 15 students of English as a second language (L2), whose first language (L1) is Spanish. Their ages range from 10 to 11. This paper identifies grammar errors as the most frequent due to L1’s interference in L2 learning. Positive, focused, indirect written feedback is proven to be the most effective, and the L1 seems to help the students to understand the teacher’s metalinguistic explanation to correct errors and avoid mistakes. These results provide insight into language learning given that they offer information regarding the teaching practice.
