An investfigation into the perspections of error correction in oral English teaching

This paper reports both the students and the teachers' perceptions of error correction in their oral English class by using both qualitative and qualitative methods.Such instruments as 78 non-English majors and 8 college English teachers have been investigated using video tapes,questionnaires and an interview.The results indicate that students in general need error correction from their teacher;high achievers have a higher expectation of their oral competence;low achievers need corrective feedbacks but at the same time they fear that the teacher's comments might hurt them;differences exist in the perceptions of oral error correction between the teachers and the students;there is alow degree of correlation between students' perception of error correction and their motivation,and a negligible correlation between their perception and their class anxiety,their ambiguity tolerance or their personality.The implications for oral English teaching are also discussed in this paper.
