“…Ellis (2006, p. 28) defines corrective feedback (CF) as "responses to learner utterances containing an error". Literature on corrective feedback shows that it can be provided by teachers or peers, and even be requested by learners (BUCKWALTER, 2001;DEBRAS;HORGUES;SCHEUER, 2015;RANTA, 1997;MACKEY;OLIVER;LEEMAN, 2003;NASSAJI;KARCHAVA, 2017;SATO, 2017;SHEHADEH, 2001). The literature on teacher feedback has revealed categories that are still used to characterize feedback provision in different contexts.…”

This paper aims at examining oral peer feedback in relation to facework theories within the teletandem context. Teletandem is a mode of telecollaboration in which two learners who speak different languages meet virtually in order to learn with each other by offering feedback by means of audio, video and textual resources. The study is qualitative in nature and uses an ethnographic microanalysis approach. The data utilized are recordings of 20 teletandem oral sessions stored in MulTeC (ARANHA; LOPES, 2019). The participants are three pairs of learners who interact both in Portuguese and in English. Results showed that more explicit types of reformulations may be face threatening and, in these cases, learners use strategies to save their own faces. On the other hand, more implicit types of reformulations do not seem to be face threatening and can be compared to strategies used to save other people's face.

“…Nonverbal communication during OCF has only recently become the particular focus of research. Some of these studies focus on gestures (e.g., Kamiya, 2012;Nakatsukasa, 2016;Nakatsukasa & Loewen, 2017; van Compernolle & Smotrova, 2014), while others investigate nonverbal behavior other than gestures (e.g., Davies, 2006;Debras et al, 2015;Faraco & Kida, 2008;McDonough et al, 2015;Wang & Loewen, 2016).…”

“…OCF studies that investigated nonverbal behavior have shown that the two co-occur frequently and this may have an effect on learner uptake. Debras et al (2015), in a small peerfeedback study of four dyadic conversations, reported that 94% of the OCF is offered multimodally. The feedback offered by NSs to NNSs in the data consisted of a mixture of verbal, vocal, prosodic, and visual means of communication including hand gestures, head nods, and facial variations including smiles (although the frequency and the nature of the smiles in the data were not reported).…”

Oral Corrective Feedback is a widely used teaching strategy that has been found to help language acquisition. The factors that contribute to its effectiveness, however, remain elusive. In this study, the role of smiling during teachers' OCF provision is investigated in intact language classrooms by modifying the analytical framework developed by Lyster and Ranta (Stud Second Lang Acquis, 19(1):37-66, 1997), which determines OCF effectiveness by the success of the learner uptake. In addition to the feedback strategies used, this study examines teacher smiling during the feedback instances, and whether they were genuine or polite smiles.

“…They trigger episodes of "metatalk" within which students help each other to "solve linguistic problems and or co-construct language or knowledge about language" (Swain et al 2002: 172;Ohta 2001). How students use gesture -visible bodily action as utterance (Kendon 2004)in the process of solving linguistic problems and co-constructing knowledge is well understood (McCafferty 2002;Mori and Hayashi 2006;Smotrova and Lantolf 2013;Smotrova 2014;Debras, Horgues and Scheuer 2015). Smotrova's (2014) study of gesture during L2 group discussions of lexical items, for example, showed that students deployed gesture "to externalize their understandings of word meanings and make them accessible to their peers" (p. 390).…”

“…Peers may offer assistance verbally or they may use their own gestures as tools to assist a struggling student's performance, such as when they provide a struggling speaker with explicit corrective feedback using either both speech and gesture or with gesture alone (Debras, Horgues and Scheuer 2015). A parallel line of L2 research has shown the centrality of gestures in teaching vocabulary (Smotrova & Lantolf 2013), pronunciation (Smotrova 2015) and grammar (e.g.…”

Language Related Episodes occur when speakers explicitly question lexical and grammatical aspects of the language they are using, resulting in collaborative discourse and assisted performance from peers. This paper demonstrates how such negotiation and repair may occur in relation to the gestural component of a speaker's expression, leading us to introduce the parallel term 'Gesture Related Episodes'. Our single case analysis reveals a range of issues that have received little attention, including the problems that people experience with gestures, what constitutes struggling in the gestural modality, and how people help each other to gesture more effectively in collaborative discourse. Our discussion links these issues to the L2 concerns and knowledge asymmetries in our data, as well as to conceptual and conventional features of gestures more generally.
