Error correction in students' written work is most effective when the teacher points out major errors using symbols and students self correct.In this case students can realise their mistakes on the spot and tries to rectify them and this helps the student not to repeat the same mistake in future. Teachers can use error correction to support language acquisition and avoid using it in ways that undermine the students' desire to communicate in the language by taking cues from context.
