Résumé : |
This study is concerned with the influence of politeness in improving the awareness and
performance of Second Year students at the Department of Letters and the English
Language at Mentouri Brothers University. It focuses mainly on examining the
relationship between the students' awareness and success in using politeness in their
speaking quality. Besides, it attempts to detect the influence that politeness provides on
students’ perception of language in terms of using direct and indirect speech acts as well
as face-saving and face-threatening acts. The purpose of this research can be summed up
as follows; identifying the positive effect of politeness on learners' appropriate use of
English, investigating if learners are aware of politeness terminology and how it is used,
and finding out whether learners can improve their speaking qualities through
developing awareness. Hence, it was hypothesized that if students use Politeness
effectively, they will improve their awareness and their appropriate use of language, and
therefore, they will understand the lectures better. In the pursuit to achieve these aims,
two research instruments were adopted: a students' questionnaire designed using
Microsoft Word and administered in classrooms concurrently to forty (40) Second Year
students of English, and observation which is carried out inside a classroom of thirty
(30) students. The study's findings revealed that students act politely when they are in
the classroom; however, sometimes they get distracted by other factors such as talking to
a classmate or using a phone, as result, they will not concentrate on the lecture, so, they
will not understand it better, which means that the hypothesis was confirmed. In other
words, awareness, better understanding, and better performance will be achieved if
learners use politeness efficiently, which contributes to enhancing their speaking quality. |
