Research summary
تهدف هذه الدراسة إلى قياس مواقف طلاب السنة الرابعة في قسم اللغة الإنجليزية تجاه تعلم اللغة الإنجليزية واستخدامها خارج المؤسسات التعليمية. تم استخدام استبيان كأداة لجمع البيانات، وأظهرت النتائج أن حوالي 82% من المشاركين يمتلكون مواقف إيجابية تجاه تعلم اللغة الإنجليزية، بينما يستخدم حوالي 55% منهم اللغة الإنجليزية بشكل متكرر خارج الكلية. كما أظهرت الدراسة أن أقل من ربع العينة راضون عن المناهج وطرق التدريس الحالية. تشير هذه النتائج إلى أن عدم الرضا عن المناهج وطرق التدريس قد يكون جزءًا من أسباب الأداء اللغوي غير الكافي لبعض الطلاب. توصي الدراسة بضرورة أخذ هذه العوامل الاجتماعية والنفسية في الاعتبار لتحسين عملية تعلم اللغة الأجنبية في سوريا.
Critical review
تعتبر هذه الدراسة خطوة مهمة نحو فهم مواقف الطلاب تجاه تعلم اللغة الإنجليزية واستخدامها في سوريا. ومع ذلك، هناك بعض النقاط التي يمكن تحسينها. أولاً، حجم العينة كان محدودًا بـ 50 طالبًا فقط، مما قد يؤثر على إمكانية تعميم النتائج. ثانياً، اعتمدت الدراسة بشكل كبير على الاستبيانات، والتي قد لا تعكس دائمًا المواقف الحقيقية للمشاركين. كان من الممكن استخدام مقابلات أو طرق نوعية أخرى للحصول على فهم أعمق. ثالثاً، لم تأخذ الدراسة في الاعتبار متغيرات اجتماعية ونفسية أخرى مثل الدافع والقلق، والتي يمكن أن تكون لها تأثير كبير على تعلم اللغة. وأخيراً، كانت هناك حاجة لمزيد من التفاصيل حول كيفية تحسين المناهج وطرق التدريس بناءً على نتائج الدراسة.

This paper is intended to investigate and scrutinize the reasons
behind the weaknesses of English major students in Philadelphia
University. One thing I would like to make clear before hand is that my
observations and conclusions are based on my p
ersonal experience gained
during my work as General Education Specialist ( English) UNRWA –
UNESCO through classroom visits to some community colleges and
Education Science Faculties in the five fields of UNRWA operations,
namely, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, West Bank and Gaza on the one hand,
and as a teacher of English at both Philadelphia University and the
University of Jordan on the other hand. I have discovered that the reasons
behind our students' weaknesses may refer to the learner, the curriculum
or the study plan with its three major components, namely, language,
linguistics and literature, and methods and teaching strategies.
Choosing the university Specialty is one of the most important decisions that a
student must take at the beginning of his university life, and the student faces a range of
difficulties that may affect the process of choosing the profession of the f
uture. This
research deals with some of the factors that may affect the student's choice of university
Specialty. The extent of these factors will be determined by selecting the following
hypotheses:
- There is a statistically significant relationship between parents' pressure, and the
inability of the student to choose the right university Specialty.
- There is a statistically significant relationship between the low economic level of
the family and the inability of the student to choose freely.
- There is a statistically significant relationship between the student’s age and his
inability to choose the university Specialty that suits him.
- There is a statistically significant relationship between the intervention of friends
and the inability to choose the appropriate Specialty.
- There is a statistically significant relationship between the freedom to choose
university major and academic excellence.
The researcher designed a questionnaire that was applied to a sample of fifty
students from the fourth – year students of the Department of Sociology at Tishreen
University.
The results of the research show the following:
The weakness of the role of the family such as the parents pressure, economic
aspect in the university major selecting process. I also shows the weakness of the role of
peers in the selection process, and it became clear that the young age of the student greatly
affects the process of selection of his Specialty, but that success and excellence is not
limited to those who choose their own specialty, A person may succeed and make his life a
success story as long as he has the will to do so.
How difficult is it for English-as-a-second language (ESL) learners to read noisy English texts? Do ESL learners need lexical normalization to read noisy English texts? These questions may also affect community formation on social networking sites wh
ere differences can be attributed to ESL learners and native English speakers. However, few studies have addressed these questions. To this end, we built highly accurate readability assessors to evaluate the readability of texts for ESL learners. We then applied these assessors to noisy English texts to further assess the readability of the texts. The experimental results showed that although intermediate-level ESL learners can read most noisy English texts in the first place, lexical normalization significantly improves the readability of noisy English texts for ESL learners.
Worldwide, Information and communication technologies (ICTs)
have gained a vital importance in satisfying the requirements of both the
new Education System and the revised Curriculum for English Language
Teaching (ELT). The experience of introduci
ng different ICTs into the
classroom and other educational settings worldwide suggests that
teachers' effective integration of technology into their curricula largely
depends on their perceptions and attitudes to the value of these tools to
achieving their instructional purposes. This research seeks to evaluate the
readiness to integrate ICTs into the current teaching practices of the
faculty at the department of English Language and Literature at
Damascus University. In a context of large classes where resources are
minimal and staff members are in short supply, using technology assisted
learning at Damascus University may help enhance education by giving
learners more flexibility and helping them evolve into more autonomous
learners. Investigating the current faculty’s reading of the value of
technology as a means of overcoming some of the restrictions imposed
by their context will uncover potential limitations on the use of ICTs in
the existing context and suggest workable solutions.
This research seeks to extend our current knowledge in the area of
distanct English language learning by exploring the language learning
strategies used by students at the Syrian Virtual University (SVU).
