Abstract

This study has sought to explore the teachers, parents, and educationalists' understudy perceptions towards the introduction of English language at an early stage in Libyan schools and their possible reasons for supporting/opposing this idea. For this purpose the study employed a quantitative research design with a close- ended questionnaire in order to obtain the essential data for the study. Data was then analyzed manually and the main findings indicated that the study's participants generally agree with the idea of introducing English at an early stage because they believe that teaching English at such stage can a) make pupils very proficient in English, b) develop pupils' cognitive abilities, c) lead pupils to a better academic performance in their education; d) increase pupils motivation for learning in the future. On the other hand, those who opposed introducing English did so because they thought it may a) negatively influence the pupils’ acquisition of their mother language, Arabic; b) increase the burden on pupils; c) invade pupils’ native culture. Keywords: perception, early stage, introducing English, Libyan schools

This study aims to highlight the effectiveness of collaborative learning in improving student academic achievement. It was carried out with a quantitative method and the pretest-posttest experimental design was applied. There were sixty students participated in this study. To assess students’ achievement, online grammar pretest and posttest were distributed. In addition, collaborative learning questionnaire was administered to elicit students’ responses towards collaborative learning. Based on paired-samples t test result, it was found that the pretest and posttest mean scores were significantly different (t(59) = -5.977, p < .05).  This indicated that there was a higher mean score of posttest after the implementation of collaborative activities. Most students responded that collaborative learning activities improved academic performance and team work helped them to receive input from their peers as well as provide better result in completing the tasks than working individually.  It is recommended that various collaborative activities should be designed to motivate university students in learning grammar.
