Résumé : |
Prior knowledge has been emphasised in research to be an important factor for successful learning particularly reading. The present study, which consists of three chapters, is conducted to investigate the role of prior knowledge activation through previewing for enhancing first year English students' reading comprehension. Our main concern is to uncover the nature of the relationship which joins background knowledge and reading comprehension. We have hypothesised that the activation of first year English learners' prior knowledge of informational texts is likely to foster reading comprehension. To verify the validity of this hypothesis, we have administered a students’ questionnaire which aims at collecting data about their opinions towards reading, reading comprehension difficulties, and background knowledge activation. After, we have conducted a practical exercise in which we wanted to confirm the questionnaire results since we noticed that they were not sufficient. In addition, the practical exercise aims at eliciting further accurate data concerning our tackled strategy. The findings of both the questionnaire and the exercise confirmed the set hypothesis. Through the discussion of the results, it was noticed that pre-existing knowledge of a given topic indeed helps first year students to comprehend the new information related to that topic. Besides, students have shown their tendency for previewing reading materials before getting started with reading for the sake of activating their background knowledge. |
