Pushed Output, Noticing, and Development of Past Tense Morphology in Content-Based Instruction
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study examines the effects of learners' production (i.e., pushed output) during a multi-stage reconstruction task on learners' noticing of Spanish past tense morphology, aural text comprehension, and development of preterite/imperfect usage in writing. Participants included 47 intermediate L2 Spanish learners in a content-based course at the university level. One group of learners (+output) listened to a series of passages and engaged in text reconstruction tasks. The other group (−output) listened to the same texts but answered multiple-choice comprehension questions instead of reconstructing the texts. Learners' notes during the listening phase of the tasks served as a noticing measure, and writing tasks were used as pre- and post-treatment measures. Results reveal that the +output group (a) reported more noticing of words overall, but not of past tense forms; (b) comprehended more information from the text; and (c) showed evidence of past tense development in their writing.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
