| خلاصه مقاله | In recent years, mobile phones have been acknowledged as powerful tools to increase effectiveness of instruction. Thus, this study aimed at exploring the effects of focused corrective feedback (CF) through WhatsApp application on the oral accuracy of Iranian intermediate EFL learners. Fifty learners participated in the study, and they were divided into two groups: Experimental and control. All learners were assigned four oral production tasks throughout four weeks. The learners in WhatsApp group were required to send their recordings via WhatsApp to receive CF through the same tool, whereas the control group did the oral tasks in the class and received feedback traditionally. The CF was targeted on six grammatical forms: present perfect versus simple past, direct versus indirect questions, and definite versus indefinite articles. A pre-test and a post-test were also given, and the scores were analyzed. The statistical results showed that the learners in the WhatsApp group significantly outperformed their counterparts in terms of total accuracy (all 6 grammatical targets) though some differences were observed with regard to specific grammatical forms. The results suggest that mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) can effectively help to improve language learning and compensate for some of the limitations of classroom teaching. |
