Study of Focus on Form and Focus on Forms on L2 Pronunciation Development of English Consonant

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The study aimed at examining the effectiveness of Focus on Form (FonF) and Focus on Forms (FonFs) on L2 Pronunciation development of English consonant. For data, 34 pre-intermediate English major college learners participated in the study. For 3 weeks, experimental group 1 (n=11) received the FonF instruction with corrective feedback (CF). Experimental group 2 (n=11) received the FonF instruction without CF. The control group (n=12) received FonFs instruction. The findings of the study revealed that the 2 FonF groups showed statistically significant differences in the post-test regardless of CF (p=.035, p=.023, p<.05). However, the FonFs group did not show any statistical difference between the pre-and post-test (p=.993, p>.05). Even though the types of CF: recast and clarification requests, did not provide direct assistance in the study, the results of the study had an academic contribution, proving the effectiveness of the FonF instruction on L2 pronunciation development. Finally, suggestions for future studies are discussed.
