Abstract
This study aims at investigating if there is any relationship between students'
perception of written feedback that teachers provide for writing tasks arid their
actual writing proficiency. And the study also aims at finding out how students
use the written feedback provided by teachers for writing tasks. To achieve the
objectives set, necessary data were collected through questionnaire and writing
skills test, which were given to 90 students. Data about perception of students
and some other related issues were collected through the questionnaire. Through
the writing skills test, the subjects' actual writing proficiency was obtained. The
students' perception about written feedback is found to have substantial
correlation (0.78) with their actual writing skills. The data obtained from the
questionnaire also revealed that students did not show any interest to read
teachers' feedback for their writing tasks.
