Résumé : |
Nonverbal communication consists a big portion of our daily lives, representing around two
thirds of all communication. The significance of nonverbal communication in general and hand
gestures in particular is the inspiration of this study. The aim behind this research is to attempt
to put hand gestures in use in favor of EFL learning. To serve this aim, third year students of
English at the department of English, Fréres Mentouri University, Constantine 1 undertake a
series of questions and tests in order to explore how they treat the aspect of hand gestures in
relation to their English learning. In doing so, it is hypothesized that students of third year at
Fréres Mentouri University of Constantine 1 express themselves better in English through using
their hands. Three tools of research are used for this investigation, a questionnaire, an interview,
and a test. The results obtained suggest that most participants recognize the presence of
nonverbal communication in their daily communication. They are able to form relative
definitions of nonverbal communication and they strongly accept the role of hand gestures in
their EFL learning course, specifically, in terms of vocabulary, illustration and speech fluency.
However, the students show little willingness to consider hand gestures as a possible learning
tool. |
