Abstract

Being the controversial issues leads written corrective feedback into two different arguments that written corrective feedback is plausible for ESL and EFL learners or it does not bring significantly for ESL and EFL learners. Through the debate, there are two queries revealing; what to do and where to go. Finally, it can be concluded that an effort to assist learners improving their accuracy of ESL and EFL writing has to be conducted by a teacher, and corrective feedback is one of the alternative techniques among others to make the learning outcome better. Moreover, both the local and global aspects are to be corrected and treated proportionally meaning the written corrective feedback not only concerns with local aspects but also with global aspects as well. Later, it would be better to evaluate long term effect of providing WCF on other occasions (a month or a semester after WCF given).
