hello and welcome to this short video on
0:09
error correction looking specifically at
0:15
mistakes like normal there's a worksheet
0:18
that accompanies this video so before I
0:22
begin pause the slide and download it
0:28
below today's video is about how
0:31
academic tutors correct students
0:34
academic English writing where they use
0:37
a correction code like
0:40
this so instead of correcting a
0:42
student's errors they put a code next to
0:45
the mistake in the text like T for tense
0:50
WF for wrong form or prep for
0:55
prepositions so the work is given back
0:58
to the student like this
1:02
the student then makes Corrections and
1:05
gives the text back to the tutor like
1:10
again this means that the student can
1:13
learn from their mistakes rather than
1:15
the tutor just correcting the mistakes
1:17
themselves this is called dialogic
1:22
feedback so in this video today we'll
1:26
