SAUDI UNDERGRADUATE EFL STUDENTS’ PERCEPTIONS TOWARDS LEARNING TOGETHER STRATEGY IMPLEMENTATION IN AN EFL READING COMPREHENSION COURSE
Öz
The importance of reading comprehension proficiency in enhancing the
academic success, development and growth of students’ logical, intellectual,
critical, emotional, social aspects and linguistic competencies is well
documented. However, there is poor performance by Saudi EFL learners in reading
comprehension section at both TOEFL and IELTS tests. This might be attributed
to the negative perceptions Saudi EFL learners have towards reading
comprehension instruction. These negative perceptions held by Saudi EFL
learners towards EFL reading comprehension instruction might be due to the fact
that the majority of Saudi English as a foreign language of students have been
taught by conventional teaching methods. Therefore, these negative perceptions
may be modified positively by applying an effective teaching method like
learning together strategy of cooperative learning that may be capable of
improving students’ academic achievement, perceptions and liking of EFL reading
comprehension. This study aimed to investigate the effects of learning together
strategy of cooperative learning on Saudi EFL undergraduate students’
perceptions towards EFL reading comprehension. The pretest-posttest
quasi-experimental design was employed since Qassim University departmental system
does not allow randomization of individual students. Forty EFL third-level
students of Unaizah Science and Arts College taking EFL Reading Comprehension
course took part in this study. The students took a pre- learning together
strategy survey, then they received a learning together strategy instruction
and finally they took a post-learning together strategy survey. Results of this
study revealed higher positive perceptions for students using learning together
strategy in the post- learning together strategy than those in the pre-learning
together strategy survey. The study concluded that learning together strategy
of cooperative learning has several pedagogical implications for EFL reading
comprehension instruction.
