Feedback in the production of academic texts by students of the Faculty of Initial at the National University of Education Enrique Guzmán y Valle in Peru

Abstract

The objective of the study was to determine the influence of the use of feedback in the production of academic texts by students of the III cycle, Faculty of Initial Education, NUE in Peru. It is an applied research with a quasi-experimental design. We worked with a sample of 50 students of Initial Education, belonging to two sections, each with 25 students. The 50 participating students had their ability to produce academic texts measured before and after the application of the use of feedback, applying only to the experimental group the learning session: use of feedback. The instruments were validated by judges' criteria and determined by reliability, and the parametric "T Student" test was used for the analysis, since the data presented normal distribution. It is concluded that the systematic and coherent application of the use of feedback on the production of academic texts of the initial students, is different according to the post-test, therefore, the students of the experimental group obtained better results in their scores in the production of academic texts as an effect of the application of the learning session based on the use of feedback with respect to the students of the control group in which the T Student value = 3.534 with a p< 0.001.
