If you are having trouble with others seeing your posts, or if people can't comment on your posts, it's usually the privacy settings on your Google + account are set to restrict who can see and comment on what you write.

To fix both issues, go to 'settings' in google+. I'm using Chrome with my PC, so the screenshots below are from what it looks like on my computer. It might look different on yours. (If you can't find it, just search for "how do I change settings in Google + on _", or something like that.)

1) Check that 'anyone' can comment on your public posts. (It's circled in the first photo I've attached, and is at the top of the settings.)

2) Scroll down toward the bottom of the settings and look for "Other". There you'll see "target audience". Make sure it says "anyone". (It's circled in the second photo.)

Your posts should now be visible, and allow replies.

    Thanks Barbara. I've checked that mine is the same. I also changed the "who can see your +1 posts" to anyone. Hopefully that'll make a difference.

For error correction I tend to use the most frequent type of correction, recast.

For error correction I tend to use the most frequent type of correction, recast. I believe I use it because it's quick and doesn't harm fluency and communication entirely. But like Penny Ur mentioned, this type of correction all the time may be ineffective and may I add fall on deaf ears most of the times. Research shows that the best correction methods are elicitation, metalinguistic feedback and explicit correction so I feel I need to use more of these methods when correcting my students. Also, sometimes I let errors go by uncorrected mostly because I consider them minor or unimportant errors but there are times when students notice them and correct them. Perhaps it's best the teacher corrects all errors and not the students because it could come across as if the teacher wasn't listening or doesn't care and because learners would rather be corrected by the their teacher than their peers as research shows.
