In this special edition of our podcast, Episode 30, we dive into the world of corrective oral feedback in the additional language classroom.

As educators, we all face the challenge of responding when our students make mistakes during oral interactions. So, what do you do when your students stumble with their spoken language? How do you offer feedback that supports their learning without discouraging them?

If you're curious to explore this topic and many others in greater depth, be sure to check out CASLT's magazine Reflections. Now, let's jump in and explore the role of oral corrective feedback in language learning.

As teachers, we know learning is most meaningful when relevant, if it resonates emotionally with students, and if it is anchored in a real-life context. Education should connect students to the world around them. We find pedagogical support for engaging students as world change-makers as far back as the early 19th century. Dewy called on educational institutes to not only prepare students to be participatory members of society post school, but to have students learn more and better by being participatory members of society while they are learning. In today's podcast we will hear how one expert in the field of ESL is doing just that.
