Why is it important?
Our findings show that 1) exclusive choice between isolated and integrated form-focused instruction is not necessary, and that 2) while both isolated and integrated form-focused instruction are effective in promoting the acquisition of L2 grammar, their effect may vary considerably depending on the linguistic nature of the target features.
