GUIDED ERROR CORRECTION (Libro en papel)

Sinopsis

This book is the result of years of experience teaching English toSpanish undergraduates studying for a degree in English Language andLiterature. The focus of the book reflects the assumption that a large majority of the mistakes made by advanced-level learners are theresult of interference from their native language. The approach adopted in this book is based on the idea that correcting one’s own mistakes involves two separate operations, namely, firstrecognising the error as such and then providing the correction forit. In the first two thirds of the book, errors are explicitlyidentified for the learner, whose task is simply to correct theerrors. In the final third, however, learners must carry out bothoperations. It is this two-step approach that the term "guided errorcorrection" tries to reflect. In order to provide sufficient practice, each of the errors -all characteristic of Spanish-speakers learningEnglish- occurs on six separate occasions in the book. In addition, the book includes a section of brief explanatory notes at the back of the book where each of the errors is explained, withSpanish translations provided to enhance comprehension of nuances inmeaning. These notes are cross-referenced with each error in theexercises for handy referral, but at the same time represent inthemselves a compact reference source for common errors. This book will be useful for upper intermediate to advanced-levelSpanish-speaking learners of English in any context, though it hasbeen designed primarily not for systematic consecutive classroom usebut rather as a series of self-correcting one-page exercises that canbe pursued sporadically at the learner’s convenience.
