English Abstract
The study is an attempt to investigate experimentally the influence of using a team work technique in teaching English for Specific Purposes to Colleges of Physical Education.
Students' language in the College of Physical Education is very poor and hesitate when using the spoken language.
Most of them who have taught formal English for many years, frequently remain deficient in the ability to actually use the English language, and to understand its use in normal communication.
So the team work technique is intended to improve students' learning through providing them with opportunities to communicate with each other and express their own opinions freely. The sample of the present study is the female students of the first year at the Physical Education College, University of Baghdad of the academic year 2003-2004.
It is hypothesized that there are no significant differences between the experime-ntal group taught ESP by the team work technique and the control group taught ESP without the proposed technique. To fulfil the aim of this study an experiment has been designed with two groups of (46) students chosen randomly from the First Year students.
One of those two groups represents the control group, and the other is the experimental one.
Both groups were matched in terms of age; parents' level of education and career, the level of subjects' achievement in English for the previous academic year(2002-2003), and the academic type of study in the secondary school. The researcher herself taught both groups to control the teacher's variable.
The experimental group was taught according to the team work technique, while the control group was taught according to the traditional technique i.e., the grammar translation method.
The experiment lasted nine weeks.
In the last week, the researcher constructed oral and written post-tests for both groups.
The two tests were exposed to jury members for the purpose of ascertaining their validity.
An item analysis was carried out to determine the item difficulty and discrimination power.
Reliability of the written test was estimated by using the test-retest method.
The scorers' reliability was used with the oral test. After analyzing the results statistically, it has been found that there are signify-cant differences between the two groups in the written and oral tests as well as the totality of both tests.
This indicates that using the team work technique in teaching is more effective than using the traditional method.
Accordingly, the null- hypothesis has been rejected. Finally, College of Physical Education are recommended to use a team work technique instead of other methods adopted, and to design textbook suitable to their learners' need.
Also there are numbers of recommendations and suggestions based on the findings of the study are presented.
