description | Academic Writing course has been considered as indispensable in tertiary education for its numerous implications in real, social and professional life. Accordingly, several strategies have been postulated to master writing. Apart from writing strategies, the conduct of written corrective feedback matters which can be traditional, electronic or hybrid. In this respect, this study was conducted to measure the effects of electronic written corrective feedback at TISHK International University on Language Preparatory School students in Erbil, Iraq. 50 students were chosen by employing a purposive sampling method. The study lasted for 10 weeks in 2021-2022 Academic Year. Both groups received the feedback traditionally in the first submission. However, experimental group received e-feedback, whereas control group received paper-based feedback in the second submission. Based on the collected data via writing exams, interview and questionnaire, it was figured out that experimental group students who received a traditional and electronic feedback instruction equally outperformed in terms of writing scores, motivation and submission rates. The findings of this study can have some implications for the stakeholders who are responsible for running Academic Writing courses in different countries. |
