ICT-mediated, written corrective feedback in language learning
A research project on language teachers' written corrective feedback beliefs and practices.

On this page, I will try to keep a brief record of the project. Use the menu above to navigate the site.

General info:
Language teachers and the tough job of marking papers..
On 1 March, 2015, I embarked on a three-year, fully funded Ph.D. fellowship. My project is an intervention project where a computer program is introduced into the practices of three lower-secondary teachers as their channel for providing their students with written corrective feedback.

My research questions are:

1. What characterizes the written corrective feedback practices of Danish lower-secondary teachers?

2. In what ways do teacher beliefs and practices change when teachers are involved in an intervention which
  • aims to update their knowledge concerning feedback
and
  • introduces interactive, technology-mediated feedback?

3. How are student attitudes and practices influenced?


I have received funding from the Danish Research Council for Educational Research. (Info in Danish.)

Main supervisor:
Assoc. prof. Susana S.Fernández, Aarhus University, School of Communication and Culture - Spanish
Secondary supervisors:
Head of Research Center for Learning and ICT Marianne Georgsen, VIA University College, School of Continuing Education.


My new place of Work until 1 March 2017 as  Ph.d. Fellow at Aarhus University, Dept. of Communication and Culture as part of the Research program Language, Linguistics & Cognition.
However, I will also be traveling back and forth to VIA University College, where I'm an associate professor and program associate of the Center for Learning & ICT.
In the fall of 2016, I will be spending some time at UVic, B.C., Canada, visiting with Prof. Hossein Nassaji and the linguistics dept.
