A PhD candidate in Applied Linguistics is designing a research project to investigate the effectiveness of different types of corrective feedback in the L2 writing classroom. She wants to compare three feedback conditions: (1) Direct corrective feedback, where the teacher explicitly corrects the students' errors; (2) Indirect corrective feedback, where the teacher indicates an error has been made (e.g., by underlining it) but does not provide the correct form; and (3) Metalinguistic corrective feedback, where the teacher indicates the error and provides a clue about its nature (e.g., 'wrong tense' or 'word choice'). The PhD candidate needs to choose a research method that can rigorously test the hypothesis that some feedback types are more effective than others for long-term improvement in grammatical accuracy. Her supervisor advises her against a simple one-shot study and recommends a more robust, longitudinal design. The supervisor quotes a text on research methods in SLA: 'To investigate the effectiveness of pedagogical interventions, a quasi-experimental design is often the most feasible and powerful method in real classroom settings. This involves using pre-tests, post-tests, and delayed post-tests to measure learning over time, and including a control group to account for maturation effects. While true random assignment may be difficult, this design allows for a more confident attribution of learning gains to the intervention itself.'

Based on this advice, which of the following research designs is the most methodologically sound for this investigation?

Alternativa A:
A purely qualitative study, where the researcher interviews students at the end of the course to ask which type of feedback they preferred.
Alternativa B:
A quasi-experimental study: The researcher uses four intact classes. One class serves as a control group (receiving no feedback). The other three classes are each assigned to one of the feedback conditions. All students complete a pre-test (a timed writing task). They then complete several writing assignments throughout the semester, receiving their assigned type of feedback. At the end of the semester, they take an immediate post-test and, a month later, a delayed post-test to measure retention. The writing samples are scored for accuracy on specific target structures.
Alternativa C:
A case study of a single student, where the teacher gives all three types of feedback at the same time on the same essay, making it impossible to disentangle their effects.
Alternativa D:
An online survey distributed to hundreds of English teachers, asking them which type of feedback they believe is the most effective, without collecting any data from actual language learners.
