Probing the impact of learning-by-teaching method to boost EFL learners' engagement during the grammar session: the case of first-year PEM students at Taleb Abdurrahman ENS Laghouat

Abstract EN

Defining the adequate educational technique to teach the grammar skills for EFL learners, means achieving a successful learning experience that does not only involve learners’ behavioural and cognitive engagement but also affective interaction with the subject matter.

the current study aims at exploring the effects of the learning-by-teaching method to enhance EFL learners’ engagement during the grammar class.

it highlights one main research question together with two others; it intends to diagnose the impact of the LBT method on learners’ behavioural engagement during the grammar session.

in this scope, a mixed method approach was adopted through distributing two questionnaires and carrying out a quasi-experiment with the second group of first-year PEM students of English at ENSL, also the work relied on classroom observations.

eventually, findings revealed that the LBT method, if implemented efficiently, approves the above-cited research question positively.
