| dc.description.abstract | The present study was primarily undertaken to investigate the feedback behaviour of Grade Eleven English teachers. It was. specifically made to find out how much of the class- 1:1/1\e is spent on the prov ision of feedback, what types of feedback Grade Eleven English teachers use and to see if there exists a regular pattern in the reactions. of teachers. Eight eXperienced English teachers were selected from the twenty-four government highschools in Addis Ababa. A system of analysis which identifies forty-three elements of l?ositive~ Negative and Miscellaneous Feedback was developed. The study has shown that teachers on average spend 29.2% of the class~tLne on the provision of feedback. The research has also identified 539 occurrences of Positive Feedback and 336 of Negative Feedback. The most frequently used types of Positive Feedback were Simple Praise Confir~ation and Positive Repetition. However, teachers showed much agreement between themselves in the use of Positive Explanation and Several Answers Solicitation without Clues. Among the various types of Negative Feedback teachers most frequently used Interruption, Simple Reproof Denial and Loop; and they showed much agreement in the uae of Repet1tinn with no change. The success ratio computed for some of the most frequently used types of Negative Feedback showed that the use of categories like Question 3, Clues, prompt and explanation bears success in eilci ting correct responses. Based on the findings of the study it is emphatically recolIllIlended that teachers need to reflect on their behaviour ·in order to promote imp~ve~ent on their current practices. | en_US |
