Every February, the Charlottetown chapter of the Canadian Heart & Stroke (H&S) Foundation hosts the “Razzle Dazzle Red” gala, a fundraising event that includes a sit-down dinner and silent and live auctions. “ELLE of an Opportunity” is the name of the very first live auction item, a coordinated jewelry set, listed in the gala program for 2014. Text developed for the jewelry enticed bidders to go big and to go fashionably home: student writer Dani MacDonald invited auction attendees to “hop right onto the trend of big, bold jewelry with this triad from ELLE Canada! The oversized ruby ring adds a note of edginess without compromising sophistication. Pair the ring with matching ELLE ruby earrings and necklace to complete your brave and bold new look!” Who could resist such a high-powered sales pitch?

This research studies the types of feedbacks made by EFL students in a writing class. A number of 25 students essays were collected and analysed. The results revealed that a number of 61 responding feedbacks were found in the types of support, sharing knowledge, negotiation, appreciation and criticism. Meanwhile, 142 correcting feedbacks were found in the types of coded, uncoded, a combination of coded and uncoded and direct answer. The type most used in responding feedback was support, which indicates that it is an important pursuit in these students learning to drive each other into improving their writing skills with confidence. Whilst the least used was criticism, and this indicates that it was not considerably favoured to be given in the peer correction feedbacks since they restrain encouragement and cause social anxiety. The type most used in correcting feedbacks was a combination of coded and uncoded. This signifies that to provide both mark and symbol on an error can avoid confusion between the student corrector and the student writer. The least used was direct answer, which signified that it was only done by students who had high English proficiency and confidence to provide the correct answer directly on the errors.
