This unit helps us a lot in
order to know what the role of error is in the learning process. We can say
that committing a mistake while speaking or writing the new language is very
normal because we are learning it. When we have an error, it allows us to know
the level of knowledge we have, and it is an advantage for all of the students
because they will know in what area they have to improve. There are many types
of errors, but we as future teachers can learn how to deal with them and how to
helps students to control errors. I will apply this in my future class through
helping my students to deal with errors, tell them that is not as bad as they
think to make a mistake because that’s the only way they are going to learn
correctly. I will give them a good feedback even of the mistakes they do in
order to make them feel sure and not afraid.

I also think that giving positive feedback is good because it aids students to build confidence and don't care so much about mistakes but with the real porpuse of learning a language that is communication

ReplyDeleteI think that errors are part of learners learning process; throughout them learners can improve and learn the language.
