Abstract EN

This article aims at investigating the relationship between the self- beliefs that Master EFL learners hold in the specific domain of Language Sciences and their first-semester academic achievement in discourse analysis.

To this end, an initial version of the Language Sciences Academic Self-Beliefs Survey was developed in order to inquire about the type of beliefs adopted by low achieving and high achieving students in one of the modules taught for Master 1 learners in English language sciences namely, discourse analysis.

Findings have revealed, in spite of the moderately ‘reserved’ statistical results, subtle associations and thought-provoking implications regarding students’ self- beliefs in the module of discourse analysis in particular and in English language sciences in general

Abstract FRE

Cette étude vise à étudier la relation entre les croyances académiques développées par les étudiants de Master spécialisés dans les sciences du langage en Anglais et leur notes semestrielles obtenues dans le module d‘analyse de discours.

À cette fin, une première version du questionnaire Sciences du Langage-Autocroyance académique a été mise au point dans le but de différencier les étudiants peu performants des étudiants très performants en analyse de discours.

Les résultats ont montré, malgré les données statistiques modérément «réservées», des associations subtiles et pertinentes incitant à la réflexion et à l’analyse.

L’exploitation profonde de ces pistes pourrait renseigner les spécialistes sur les solutions à adopter afin d’améliorer la qualité du rendement académique en Anglais Langue étrangère.
