Title: Response to Student Writing
Subtitle: Implications for Second Language Students
Published: 2003
Publisher: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates
Author: Dana R. Ferris

This volume synthesizes and critically analyzes the literature on response to
the writing of second language students, and discusses the implications of the
research for teaching practice in the areas of written and oral teacher
commentary on student writing, error correction, and facilitation of peer
response.

The book features numerous examples of student texts and teacher
commentary, as well as figures and appendices that summarize research
findings and present sample lessons and other teaching materials. It is thus
simultaneously comprehensive in its approach to the existing research and
highly practical in showing current and future teachers how this material
applies to their everyday endeavors of responding to student writing and
teaching composition classes.
