Abstract(in English) In this study, picture-description task was conducted to investigate how Japanese EFL learners notice the problems in their texts, and modify them in subsequent writing by allocating participants into condition with and without speech production of Corrective Feedback (CF). Participants produced contents of sample after the first writing, and then wrote the modified text. The results showed that 28 % of problematic features with speech production were resolved, and 55 % of problematic features without speech production were resolved in modified texts by using sample texts. In both conditions, many modifications for vocabulary and grammar item were observed and modifications for contents, and overall organization followed. With speech production, modifications in word and phrase level were observed when modifications in sentence level were observed without speech production. It suggests that modifications of problematic feature in both conditions are qualitatively different. This indicates that use of Corrective Feedback in L2 writing has a role to promote noticing for Japanese EFL learners.
