Title	The Role of Form-focused Feedback on Developing Students’ Writing Skill
Authors	Zohrabi, Mohammad; Rezaie, Parvin
Abstract	Current interest in focus on form feedback is motivated in part by the findings of immersion and naturalistic acquisition studies that suggest when classrooms in second language learning is entirely meaning-focused, some linguistic features do not ultimately develop to target-like levels. It seems that attention to form has positive effect in negotiation of meaning. Also attempt to produce the target language – output − encourages learners to notice their linguistic problems precisely. This study tries to find out the role of form-focused feedback on developing writing skill. The result of comparing three writing groups shows that writing skill of those students who received form focused feedback improved considerably.
