Conclusion
In a conclusion, this research revealed that there were certain differences between the high school EFL learners’ preferences and emotions regarding OCF and OCF types in terms of gender and grade level. Receiving OCF was considered to be important for EFL learners, and Burçak Yılmaz Yakışık 120 Indonesian Journal of English Language Teaching and Applied Linguistics, 6(1), 2021 the majority of the learners preferred to be corrected immediately. Moreover, learners preferred self-correction as the first choice. To this end, language instructors should be aware of individual differences in the class and give corrective feedback with different prompts that address learners’ differences so that learners are encouraged to self-correct the errors. The difference between the female and male EFL learners in terms of their preferences for OCF types was revealed. While female learners preferred metalinguistic clues as to the first choice; male learners preferred peer correction. Hence, teachers might be encouraged to provide feedback with explanations and concrete examples for female learners; and activating peer collaboration for male learners. As for the grade levels, language learners at the 10th -grade level had more academic concerns compared to the 9th and 11th -grade levels. They tend to avoid making mistakes and if an erroneous utterance was generated, they preferred to be corrected immediately and individually. Further research about OCF might include teachers having the opportunity to compare EFL learners and teachers’ preferences about OCF types. Furthermore, qualitative data obtained by interviews with learners and teachers can shed light on their preferences and emotions about OCF in a more detailed and descriptive way.
