Pair corrections and synchronous interactions for French as foreign language acquisition

Most interactionist studies suggest that corrective feedback can contribute to the acquisition of a foreign language. Corrective feedback could highlight the learner's hypotheses that mismatch the target language & would thus permit to correct them. However, the identification of the factors (learners' profiles, context of interaction, but also communicational modality that is used -- speech or written -- or attentionnal focus -- focus on form/forms or meaning) that influence the production of corrective feedbacks is still a problem in Second Language Acquisition research.
