Beschreibung
With the increasing amount of interest in L2 writing in English language education, the number of research studies that focus on how to improve students writing skills has risen, and both researchers and teachers have started to look for better ways to assess students writing. There have been a great number of studies that focus on which types of grammar feedback is more useful for students, and several studies that investigate what students and teachers prefer concerning error correction in L2 writing. What this work intends to do is, however, first, investigate what students prefer and what their reasons are for their preferences, and then, try to find out whether or not their preferences are the ones that they benefit from most. By ascertaining Turkish university students perceptions and preferences towards error correction and putting forward whether their preferences are the best methods for their improvement in writing, this study is expected to fill a gap in writing research with its questioning approach and surprising results.
