Abstract

This study investigated the use of pictures to facilitate English for Foreign Language (EFL) students in fiction creative writing. This study was conducted in a private university located in Jakarta. This study involved 5 junior students of the English Department. The students were expected to write fiction creative writing by using pictures. They had to describe the setting and the character in the pictures and developed them. In this study, the students had one meeting to write a fiction writing without using the picture and four meetings using the picture. The result of this study reveals that the use of the pictures to facilitate EFL students in fiction creative writing is useful to facilitate them to get the ideas, raise their motivation, and build their imagination in doing fiction creative writing

Abstract

Vocabulary size knowledge is considered as a crucial factor in academic success and it could be enlarged through several ways. The purpose of the present study was to examine the correlation between morphological awareness and vocabulary size knowledge of Saudi participants at King Khalid University. The present study used the correlational research design, which investigates the relationship or correlation between variables. The participants of this study included 67 male students from two sections of Phonology course taught by the researcher. Two research instruments were used to gather the data of this study, Nation’s (1990) Vocabulary Level Test and the Morphological Awareness Test adopted from Alsalamah (2011) which was originally developed by Chang, Wagner, Muse, & Chow (2005). The SPSS software (version 18) was used to analyze the data of present study. The results of the study revealed that the students’ vocabulary size was within 4.000 words level and 5.000 words level (4686 word families). The results have also showed relatively low performance in the Morphological Awareness Test (i.e. Morphological Structure Test and Morpheme Identification Test). Concerning the correlation between the two variables, the results showed no significant correlation between morphological awareness and vocabulary size.

Abstract

Knowledge of English as a means of communication among nations of the world is regarded as a must have asset by everyone in today’s world. However, many scholars and writers advocate the imperialist view arguing that the globalization of English results in an increasing intrusion of English into the lives of people exerting dominance, power, culture, ideology and language of English speaking countries over the periphery countries. Taking up an anti-imperialist stance, the author of this literature critically examines studies completed on EFL students’ attitudes towards learning English language to date and determines how popular English is in Iran in comparison to other foreign languages. After having discovered the popularity of English in Iran, the author argues against the strict anti-intrusion policies of Iranian government which has so far led to proposed bans or tight restrictions on ELT in Iran. The objective is to call on political extremists to moderate their stance on their anti-intrusion policies. The author collected findings from dozens of studies published in post-revolutionary Iran between 1977 and 2019 and concluded that the participants found English learning beneficial and mostly favoured. Findings highlight highly positive attitudes towards learning English that do not fit the linguistic imperialism paradigm. The paper, therefore, argues against linguistic imperialism, its credibility and the many disadvantages that have been linked to it by highlighting a massive influx of respondents' high inclination towards learning English that show a dramatic increase over time and positive expressions on the positive effects of English on the country's social, economic, and scientific growth. Eventually, the paper prescribes negotiation rather than prohibition. Negotiation and respect are beneficial for both sides, for people and government. The views and opinions expressed in this article promise clear implications for government officials, educators, parents, EFL teachers and policy-makers.
