THE ROLE OF LEARNER SELF-CORRECTION IN COMMUNICATIVE PERFORMANCE

Abstract

The main objective of the paper is to discuss the role of self-corrections in learner communicative performance. The paper consists of two parts. In the first one learning strategies, which include self-correction, are shown as cognitive processes. Several sub-chapters are devoted to different aspects of the strategy of self-correction. Different forms of self-correction are presented as psycholinguistic processes. Besides the attempt to characterize the good language learner and the role of the strategy of monitoring is analyzed within this context. The emphasis is put on the role of self-correction in second language learning. Another part of the paper is devoted to analyzing the research aiming at determining whether the strategy is actually employed by second language learners. Different forms of self-correction in learner communicative performance are distinguished and comparison of the strategy use between efficient and inefficient students is made. Finally, one of the possible ways of teaching second language students to become more aware of their language production is investigated and some pedagogical implications are presented.
