Abstract

This paper deals with the peer corrective feedback for written production in the Institutional-Integrated Teletandem (iiTTD) in a Portuguese as a Foreign Language group of a southern university from the United States of America. One of the activities required in iiTTD, besides virtual meetings made by Skype® for language learning, is the production of compositions for the practice of writing in the students’ target language. There is a collaborative writing process characterized by the actions of a) writing; b)sending to the partner for written correction; c) oral corrective feedback in the following iiTTD session; d) rewriting of the texts. The aim of this paper is to present results related to oral corrective feedback of TTDii sessions for textual productions of the participants, from the analysis of the episodes in which students discuss the corrected texts. The analysis of audio and video recordings of iiTTD sessions showed that oral feedback was beneficial because it offered opportunities for partners to clarify doubts regarding the written correction, obtain grammatical and cultural explanations of the Portuguese language, among other advantages that are presented in this study.
