| Resumo: | This study aims to investigate how the systematic practice with WhatsApp and two
different types of feedback influence the development of L2 learners’ oral skill. Fiftyfour L2 English learners were divided into an experimental group and a control group.
Both groups were exposed to a two-month-hybrid experience for the development of
oral production with WhatsApp and were asked to answer a questionnaire about it.
The control group received content-based feedback, that is, referring to the message
itself, whereas the experimental group received grammar-based feedback, indicating
explicit corrections related to form. Through a pre and post-test, we checked if the
use of mobile digital technology and the different types of feedback influenced
participants’ oral development, in what relates to accuracy, lexical density and
fluency. Results indicate that the use of WhatsApp as a tool to practice speaking had
a positive impact in the development of students’ accuracy. In addition, findings
suggest that grammar-based feedback might be more effective than content-based
feedback, in what concerns to accuracy. Finally, our findings signal that learners
have found the use of WhatsApp beneficial to develop oral production and to receive
feedback about it. |
