Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The research project attempts to investigate the effects of Form-Focused Instruction (FFI) on a foreign language (FL) pronunciation of basic learners of English as a Foreign Language. It also deliberately explores the significant possibility that learners will be able to work together towards eliminating their pronunciation errors in the classroom in order to enable learners to learn FL pronunciation individually and/ or collaboratively with classmates, which makes this project unique in the last few years’ development of form-focused pronunciation instruction.
