Abstract

This article aims at investigating the impact of feedback on students’ writing. In relation to this objective, this paper reviewed a research article written by Marzban and Arabahmadi (2013), and supported it by giving more empirical findings. Twenty four students were randomly selected and assigned into four groups: three experimental groups and one control group, and were asked to write a narrative paragraph. On the students’ writing, different types of feedback were given to the experimental groups, and no feedback was given to the control group. One week later, the writings were returned back, and the students were asked to understand the feedback given. Several minutes later, the students were asked to write the second writing on the same topic. All students’ writings were assessed using the ESL Composition Profile. A comparison of the first and second writing using descriptive statistics showed that all components of students’ writing: content, organization, and language use, improved. The writing improvement of the experimental groups outperformed the control group. Furthermore, through ANOVA calculation, there was significant difference between group 1 and group 4 for the overall score. The result of this study seemed to support the benefit of feedback in improving students’ writing.
