I'm an English major in China and I'm going to be an English teacher in a few months. Now I'm goning to write an papper about peer correction in writing, and my target students are English majors in a Chinese university(my classmates). However, I don't know how to design the questionaire. Can anyone give me some hints? Thank you very much.

I'd like to help, but I don't entirely understand. Is the topic you and your classmates correcting each other's English writing? And you're interviewing your classmates for their opinions on this?

Why not try the links to the different appendices on this page:

http://www-writing.berkeley.edu:16080/t ... 23/a1.html

which, by the way, I found in about 15 seconds by googling

peer+correction+writing +efl

where there are plenty more results

Am I particularly grumpy today or are there more and more requests/demands for "help" that really mean "Do my research for me"?

I don't mean you hushui. You only asked for hints, which seems fair enough. But others needing "help" come across as almost imperious at times, even allowing for linguistic and cultural differences.

Thank you for your help. I've tried on google and other websets, but it's a pity I can only find some papers of peer correction in writing of ESL students in senior high school or papers by native speakers who done this in their own country.
I've tried that web and I got some hints.Some of them can be used in my paper.

(Maybe what I want to do is a new field so it's difficult for me to fine so many quotes.)
