Abstract
The use of corrective feedback on students‟ writing is one of never endless issues to discuss and received huge attention from lecturers, thesis advisors and researchers. Various studies related to feedback have been conducted whether to find out its effectiveness, strength, and weaknesses or to improve the quality of students‟ writing. It cannot be denied that the way how advisors provide feedback plays an essential role to help students build their confidence to write and assist them to improve their writing. In accord to this, this research attempted to seek the light on how advisors make a use of feedback in writing and find out the factors the lecturers considered to provide feedback. To achieve these goals, this study employed qualitative case study as the research design involving three tenured lecturers in State Islamic College of Ponorogo as the research subjects. Data related to kinds of strategies used by the subjects in giving feedback and their underlying considerations were gotten by employing interview and document observation. The collected data were analyzed qualitatively to answer the research questions. This study revealed that the subjects‟ strategies in giving feedback varied and these were closely related to the targeted aims. Some strategies were identified, such as the use of corrective feedback using minimal marking and comment, reflective feedback by discussing some samples of students‟ errors and peer review. These strategies were occupied under certain condition regarding the students‟ need and proficiency level, types and amount of errors. Since the findings were beneficial to suggest how feedback was effective to apply, it is recommended for lecturers to adapt or adopt these feedback practices in order to help students improve the quality of their writing.
