Abstract

The objective of this study is to measure the effect of direct and metalinguistic written corrective feedback (WCF) on the proper use of discursive markers with organizational value in informative journalistic chronicles in order to improve linguistic accuracy. These markers are relevant for the organization and connection of informative chronicles that have a texture in which narration predominates with a chronological modality. To this aim, an experimental study was carried out with pretest, immediate post-test and delayed post-test. The sample corresponds to 39 subjects, divided into two experimental groups and a control group. The experimental groups (EG) systematically received the strategies of direct WCF (EG1) and metalinguistic WCF (EG2), while the control group (CG) did not receive feedback. The results show the positive effects of the corrective feedback strategies selected to increase the learning and the correct use of discursive markers with organizational value in journalistic chronicles.
