The implementation of constructivism in teaching reading to Kurdish EFL students at Salahaddin University-Erbil

الملخص EN

This study investigates the effectiveness of implementing constructivist principles in teaching reading to Kurdish EFL students.

The study employs a quasi-experimental design, which involves a control group and an experimental group.

The former group was taught traditionally, while the latter was taught in accordance with constructivist pedagogy.

The results revealed that the constructivist intervention positively affected the students' reading skill in the experimental group.

They outperformed their peers in the control group who were taught traditionally.

These results testify the assumption that the application is expedient to cultivate students' reading skills.

The study ends up with putting forward some conclusions.
