Note générale : Une copie électronique PDF disponible en Bus Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Lettres et Langues Etrangères:Langue Anglaise Tags : Language Studies  Vocabulary  Acquisition through  Listening Index. décimale : 420 Langue anglaise Résumé : The current work aims at shedding some light on the importance of the listening skill to enhance students’ vocabulary. Developing vocabulary seems to be a difficult purpose for both native and non-native learners because of its broad scope. That is why, we hypothesized that if learners of English use the listening skill to developing their vocabulary, they will be able to collect and gain new vocabulary. So, data have been collected from a second year master students at the department of English, Constantine University 1. Among 50 subjects of the two tests and the questionnaire, only 30 subjects of the first test, 48 of the questionnaire and 48 of the second test were taken into consideration on the basis of the analogy of their answers. The results have revealed that the task of acquiring and developing vocabulary seems to be facilitated due to the use of the listening skill. Therefore, this study highlights the importance of listening to enhance vocabulary.

Thus, teachers are required to pay more attention to this element and teach it in a meaningful and comprehensible way. This research work is concerned with the difficulties that fourth year middle school pupils face in acquiring new vocabulary items. This research tries to explore the use of visual aids to facilitate vocabulary teaching/learning in middle school. More precisely, the present study aims at investigating the attitudes and perceptions of both teachers and pupils towards the effect of using visual aids on vocabulary teaching/learning. Accordingly, we hypothesize that if middle school teachers and learners hold positive attitudes towards the use of visual aids in teaching vocabulary; this would help learners acquire new words more effectively. To achieve our aim, we used two research tools: an interview for four English language teachers and a questionnaire for forty students, randomly selected from Boughaba Roukia Middle School at Constantine City. The findings obtained in this study revealed that the respondents hold positive attitudes towards the use of visual aids, and disclosed their preferences mainly for pictures and realia rather than the other kinds of visual aids. The findings confirm our hypothesis and further show that the use of visual aids makes the learning/teaching process more active, interesting, and enjoyable Diplome : Master 2 Permalink : https://bu.umc.edu.dz/master/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=4740 Attitudes towards the use of visual aids in teaching and learning vocabulary : The case of fourth year pupils at boughaba roukia middle school in constantine city [texte imprimé] / Amal Tamene, Auteur ; Kamila Sid, Auteur ; Saliha Beloulmi, Directeur de thèse . - CONSTANTINE [ALGERIE] : Université Frères Mentouri Constantine, 2017 . - 99 f. ; 30 cm.

The Effect of Using the Keyword Method on Developing EFL Pupils’ Retention of Vocabulary The Case of Second Year Middle School Pupils at “Ahmed Aroua” School in Ben Chergui, Constantine / Rania Dif 

Public ISBD Titre : The Effect of Using the Keyword Method on Developing EFL Pupils’ Retention of Vocabulary The Case of Second Year Middle School Pupils at “Ahmed Aroua” School in Ben Chergui, Constantine Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Rania Dif, Auteur ; Ibtissem Fakhet, Directeur de thèse Editeur : CONSTANTINE [ALGERIE] : Université Frères Mentouri Constantine Année de publication : 2020 Importance : 172 f. Format : 30cm. Note générale : Une copie electronique PDF disponible au BUC. Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Lettres et Langues Etrangères:Langue Anglaise Tags : Using the Keyword  Vocabulary  memory tool. Index. décimale : 420 Langue anglaise Résumé : Vocabulary is of paramount importance in foreign language learning; it is intimately connected to language skills that are necessary for achieving academic success. However, developing a sufficient vocabulary stock represents a real challenge for EFL learners due to their inabilities to store and commit new information to memory effectively, which impedes its later recall. This makes the process of learning new words more complicated as learners keep on experiencing difficulties with their memorisation and retention. It is for this reason that many researchers in the field of vocabulary acquisition have been searching for the most adequate learning tools that can be used to help learners acquire new vocabularies, among these tools are mnemonic devices and in particular the keyword method. In essence, the aim of the present research is to investigate whether the use of the keyword method has a positive effect in promoting Second Year Middle School pupils‟ retention of vocabulary as well as to explore the teachers‟ attitudes towards the usefulness of this mnemonic device. Accordingly, we hypothesise that if both teachers and pupils make use of the keyword method as a mnemonic device in teaching/ learning contexts, then the pupils‟ retention of vocabulary will improve. In order to check the validity of our hypothesis, we relied on two means of research: a quasi-experiment and the teachers‟ questionnaire. The test was administered to the study group, which was randomly chosen and consisted of thirty (30) participants to serve as a sample, whereas the questionnaire was shared with nine (09) Middle School teachers from two different schools. The collected data was carefully analysed in order to identify the present relationship between the implementation of the keyword method and vocabulary retention. The findings of this investigation confirmed our suggested hypothesis since the use of the keyword method strengthened the pupils‟ ability to retain new vocabulary effectively. They also provided evidence that the teachers held positive attitudes towards the use of this memory tool.
