Enhancing cohesion in Thai postgraduate students' expository writing through feedback delivery and revisionTools Tangkiengsirisin, Supong (2010) Enhancing cohesion in Thai postgraduate students' expository writing through feedback delivery and revision. PhD thesis, University of Nottingham.
AbstractThis study investigated the effects of teacher written feedback and students' revision on the use of cohesive devices in expository compositions written by thirty Thai postgraduate students enrolled in a 16-week writing course at a Thai university. The teacher written comments, including corrective, advisory and indicative comments, were provided to the students' cause-effect, comparison/contrast and classification essays. The feedback on cohesion in this study dealt with form, content and, most importantly, essay organisation. Each of the essays from this experimental group was provided with a combination of teacher written comments focusing on the improvement of cohesion. The students revised their initial drafts in response to the teacher written feedback provided.
