In the traditional educational environment the errors made by the students are frequently corrected and given feedback, because the focus of classroom instruction is on accuracy. Giving feedback and correcting errors may serve not only to let learners know how well they have performed, but also to increase motivation and build a supportive classroom environment. In this context, this paper aims at highlighting the importance of feedback, some key areas including what is error and feedback, types and models of feedback, attitudes towards errors and some feedback strategies.Providing feedback and correcting errors to learners on their performance is an important aspect of teaching.
