Résumé : |
The present study aims at investigating the role of extensive reading in the
improvement of students’ writing ability. It revolves around the reading skill, the writing skill,
the reading-writing connection along with the role of the reading skill in the ultimate
improvement of the writing skill. Furthermore, it attempts to cast light on the importance of
the reading-writing connection that is supported by both teachers and students in order to
improve SL/FL students’ writing production. The basic hypothesis in this study sets out that
SL/FL students could eventually become better writers and they would be more cognizant to
the ins and outs of how a decent piece of written language is put together if they read
extensively in that language. We have opted for a descriptive method that targeted two
variables: extensive reading as the independent variable and its effect in improving students’
writing skill as the dependent variable. Data were collected through two questionnaires that
were administered to written expression teachers and two groups of third year LMD students
from the Department of Letters and English Language at University of Frères Mentouri,
Constantine. The results obtained in this present research demonstrate that writing difficulties
differ from one student to another. It appears to hinge largely upon students’ background
knowledge in learning. Moreover, the results unveiled that the lack of reading the foreign
language texts, the division between teaching reading-writing in the English as a Foreign
Language (EFL) classroom (which entails a considerable lack of emphasis on the readingwriting connection), the lack of suitable information to cover the assigned topics, the lack of
vocabulary, low self-confident, anxiety, the lack of motivation and organization of ideas are
the main writing difficulties that third year LMD students may face in writing. In the light of
the results obtained from the questionnaires, we suggest some recommendations for both
teachers and students in an attempt to help students resolve their writing difficulties, since
IV
students’ writing difficulties can be treated through bridging the gap between teachers and
their students by paying further attention to the reading skill. |
