Abstract

Feedback is an important part of process teaching of English writing. Feedback methods mainly include the traditional teacher feedback, peer feedback and the newly emerged automatic online feedback which is based on big data and artificial intelligence. In recent years, some researchers have combined the advantages of teacher feedback with automatic online feedback, and put forward a new method called human–computer combination (HCC) feedback. In this study, teacher feedback and HCC feedback were used for a four-month experimental teaching, and the differences of teaching effects between the two methods were examined. At the end of the experimental teaching, the attitudes of teachers and students toward teacher feedback and automatic online feedback were investigated. The results of experimental teaching show that the feedback method of HCC has significantly improved the quality of students’ English writing, especially in the content of composition, the accuracy and coherence of language. The results of questionnaire and interview show that students prefer the traditional teacher feedback, but they also admit the help of automatic online feedback in correcting their word spelling and simple grammatical errors. Therefore, this paper suggests that teachers should try to use the HCC feedback method in their teaching of English writing, and the specific implementation steps are also suggested.
