1 OMLTA H2 General Gr Room: Aurora BonPatronPro to the rescue Online help for those perpetual written errors for students AND teachers Maria Gauthier Saturday March 31, :45 11:45
2 Workshop description Second language writers improve with practice and frequent feedback. The online BonPatron grammar and spell check program ( puts the responsibility on students to make their own corrections and learn from their mistakes.
3 General overview of workshop Introduction to BonPatron Pro version Action Research Exploiting the tool
4 Introduction to BonPatron Why BonPatron? What is BonPatron? What does it look like? How does it work? What it cannot do?
5 Why Bon Patron? A time-efficient means of providing linguistic feedback on compositions; teacher can spend time on other aspects of writing Students make their own corrections Better than MS Word Easy-to-use Free version accessible Created by language instructors over a decade ago and is constantly improving
6 What is Bon Patron? Instructional editing tool Flags common morpho-syntactic and orthographic errors Gives feedback (metalinguistic corrective feedback) Highlighted errors (in red) and concerns (in yellow) Metalinguistic feedback (an explanation of what the mistake is and how to correct it) Provides an example of correct usage Puts the responsibility on the student (pedagogical) writers get feedback, make sense of it and correct work (real-time feedback) individualized
7 What does it look like? (in English)
8 What does it look like? (in French)
9 How does it work? Youtube videos BonPatronPlus (French language checker) SpellCheckPlus (English language checker) SpanishCheckPlus (Spanish language checker)
10 What it cannot do? The program is limited to flag mainly morphosyntactical, spelling and common lexical mistakes made by Anlgophone students (linguistic aspects of writing) It cannot flag discursive and semantic aspects of writing Reformulate more appropriate ways of expressing ideas Semantic issues (word appropriateness) Pragmatics (context; message; referential) Text appropriateness (appropriates of task types) Complex sentence structures can be problematic (ex. S-V agreement when separated by several words/clauses)

22 Action Research (AR) Research question Types of corrective feedback Literature review Method Findings Discussion Implications
23 AR: Question How does using the web-based grammar and spell check program BonPatronPro enhance the cognitive engagement and achievement of senior level students editing of, and the linguistic accuracy of, their written French?
24 AR: Corrective feedback research Direct teacher makes the corrections MS Word auto-correct Indirect (guides learners to reflect on language) Underlining/highlighting Metalinguistic (source of information that permits learners to reflect on and analyse the language) Negative evidence (error) vs. positive evidence (examples) Develops self-repair skills and raises awareness
25 AR: Method 8 compositions (6 formative; 2 summative) Each composition Typed and verified Edited using BP feedback Read error summary Reflected on error summary Wrote a reflection (writing journal)
26 AR: Data collection and analysis Data read over two ways: 1. Focused on each participant looking at all data sets for that individual 2. Focused on each data set individually looking for trends
27 AR: Findings (1) Considerable progress (N=4) Wrote 6 compositions and verified each compositions ~ 7 times Wrote 6 reflections (~ 100 words/reflection) noting specific grammar points and outlining objectives for future compositions Positive results in all three aspects of progress (2) Moderate progress (N=4) Inconsistencies in number of: compositions/reflections words written in compositions and/or reflections number of times comps. Verified (3) Limited progress (N=3) Error analysis same errors made Strong student wrote the minimum Weak student wrote too much (overwhelming) Weak student did little work
28 AR: Underlying processes (definitions) Interlanguage: Learner s emerging linguistic system as they move toward becoming fully proficient in the target language (Selinker, 1972). Errors are a direct manifestation of a system within which a learner is operating reflecting the interlanguage competence of the learner (Brown, 1994). Negative Evidence: input that lets the learner know that a particular form is not acceptable according to target language norms (Mitchell & Myles, 1994, p.16). Direct metalinguistic feedback: a source of information that permits the learner to reflect and analyse the language (Richards, Platt & Platt, 1992). Fossilization: when the L2 learner seems unable to get rid of non-native-like structures in their L2 despite abundant linguistic input over many years. Plateau effect: phenomenon when students reach a plateau in their L2 development preventing them from further progress.
29 AR: Definitions (cont.) Consciousness raising: when features of the target language are salient and noticeable by the language learner. Noticing the gap: cognitive process where the learner s working memory temporarily holds the input to potentially be integrated into the learner s long-term memory (Schmidt, 1990). Languaging: using language to mediate cognitive activity (meta-talk), which leads to restructuring knowledge. Intake: reorganization of long-term knowledge stored in the learners interlanguage system (Schmidt, 1994).
30 AR: Implications Maximizing effectiveness of corrective written feedback in the classroom writing FREQUENTLY + writing a sufficient QUANTITY = output feedback cognitive conflict reflection intake change in interlanguage (restructuring knowledge) Keep in mind challenges high proficiency students need feedback (negative evidence) to avoid: plateau effect (temporary leveling off of progress) fossilization (L2 system frozen/stuck in deviant stage). low proficiency students need to focus on specific feedback (consciousness raising and noticing the gap) to avoid: feeling overwhelmed getting discouraged.
31 AR: Model for writing process
32 AR: Discussion Optimal process for using BonPatronPro. Students compositions (output) reflect their language level at that moment (interlanguage). feedback (positive and negative evidence) generates a cognitive conflict (consciousness raising and/or noticing). Written reflections about gaps in their writing (languaging) help generate a change (intake) in subsequent composition (output). Moderate progress transpired when the writer engaged perfunctorily in the cycle or did not complete some steps in the cycle.
33 Ideas for exploiting the resource FoF instruction (writing focusing on particular grammar points) Homework Compositions Dictations Dictaglosses Texts for presentations (as scaffold for speaking) Writing portfolio and reflections
