We're thrilled to announce our new partnership with Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada, to produce an 8-part mini series on the topic of Corrective Feedback. The series explores the area of corrective feedback through interviews with 8 scholars in the field. All interviews are conducted by students in Dr. Eva Kartchava's MA class at Carleton University as a means of assessment to connect researchers to their audience and have her students generate a greater level of understanding and investment in the research from the course. If you are interested in having a similar series produced for your class or institute, you can contact us: [email protected] 

This is episode 2 in our series. In this episode, Dr. Hossein Nassaji joins the program to discuss corrective feedback. Dr. Hossein is an award-winning scholar and Professor of Applied Linguistics in the Department of Linguistics at the University of Victoria, Victoria, BC.  He has authored over 100 articles and many books.  His forthcoming handbook on corrective feedback, The Cambridge Handbook of Corrective Feedback in Second Language Learning and Teaching with Eva Kartchava, is a comprehensive volume that discusses current issues and perspectives on corrective feedback and their applications to second language teaching and learning.  

Specifically in this episode, Dr. Nassaji tells us about:

• the roles corrective feedback plays in language learning

*This interview was conducted by Kelsey Ulrich-Verslycken and Lana Haj Hamid
