Abstract: Critical thinking is an important everyday activity. Every time we have to make a decision, the process we go through involves critical thinking. Nowadays, critical thinking is one of the major concepts under consideration in education.Reading has also been considered one of the most important skills in EFL/ESL context. Hence, the integration of critical thinking and reading could be most effective to learners. To develop students' critical reading ability is a major goal in reading instruction.Considering the substantial roles of EFL/ESL reading comprehension and critical thinking skills, it can be noted that these two variables are required for students to succeed in academic English settings.In line with the studies confirming the positive relationship between critical thinking ability and language proficiency, this study intendes to investigate the relationship between the EFL college students' critical thinking and their performance in reading comprehension. Hence, the present study aims at : 1 - measuring EFL college students' critical thinking skills;2 - measuring EFL college students' reading comprehension performance;3 - finding out the relationship between students' critical thinking skills on one hand and their performance in reading comprehension on the other; and4 - investigating whether gender makes difference in the relationship between critical thinking and reading comprehension.To achieve the aims of the study, four null hypotheses have been stated as follows : 1 - Third - year EFL college students' level on the critical thinking test is average.2 - Third - year EFL college students' performance on the reading comprehension test is average.3 - There is no statistically significant relationship between Iraqi EFL students' critical thinking and reading comprehension performance.4 - There is no statistically significant difference in the relationship between Iraqi EFL students' critical thinking and reading comprehension performance according to the gender variable. A random sample of third - year college students enrolled for the academic year (2013 - 2014) has been selected. The number of participants is 62 representing 30 % of the total population.In order to fulfil the aims of the study and to test its hypotheses, two instruments have been adopted for data gathering; Watson - Glaser Critical Thinking Appraisal (WGCTA) Test and astandardized Reading Comprehension Test. The instruments are exposed to a jury of experts for the purpose of ascertaining their face and content validity. They have validated the items and suggested some modifications. After a pilot administration of the instruments, their reliability is calculated by the split - half method for the (WGCTA) Test, and the mark - remark method for the reading comprehension test, yielding reliability coefficients of 0.72 and 0.81 respectively. The discriminatory powers and difficulty level of the instruments' items are also computed.After the final administration of the study instruments, the major findings are : 1 - Third year EFL college students' performance on the critical thinking test is average.2 - The students have average level in some CT subskills; Interpretation and Evaluation of Arguments, but they are weak on others; Inference, Recognition of Assumptions and Deduction. 3 - Third year EFL college students' performance on the reading comprehension test is average. 4 - The students' performance on the lower order thinking level is average, whereas their performance on the higher order thinking level is below average.5 - There is a positive significant relationship between Iraqi EFL students' critical thinking skills and reading comprehension performance.6 - There are no statistically significant differences between critical thinking and reading comprehension due to the gender variable.In the light of the results obtained, a number of pedagogicalimplications and recommendations concerned with textbooks designers, teachers, and learners are put forward. Also, several suggestions for further studies are proposed to enrich this area of investigation.

Abstract: Reading comprehension occupies an important position in language teaching programme because of its relevance to foreign language learners in their future life, i.e., if they acquire the habits of good reading. They will be able to make good progress in almost every subject they have the opportunity to study.Due to the educational findings which clearly show that there are some weaknesses in the reading comprehension ability of foreign language learners throughout all the academic stages (including the secondary stage), the present study aims empirically at investigating the effect of using Discovery Learning vs. Learning by Scaffolding on the performance of Iraqi English as a foreign language learners in reading comprehension. These techniques use to enhance the students` ability in Reading Comprehension, urging them to use creative thinking skills to interact with the text and to enable teachers to engage their students in an interactive process in the classroom.To achieve the purpose of the present study, the following null hypotheses have been posed : 1 - There is no statistically significant difference between the achievement means of scores of the experimental groups (Discovery Learning group, Scaffolding leaning group ) and that of Control group in the Reading Comprehension post - test.2 - There is no statistically significant difference between the achievement means of scores of the Discovery Learning group and that of the Scaffolding learning group in the Reading Comprehension post - test.To verify the hypotheses, the researcher has been adopted a pre - test/ post - test non - equivalent groups experimental design, i.e.,the experimental groups are given a pre - test before the beginning of the experiment to assess their learner’s performance in Reading Comprehension skills. Another test is given again at the end of the experiment in order to check whether the learner’s performance improved in the same skills.This study is limited to Iraqi English as a Foreign Language fourth - grade female learners at secondary schools in Baghdad Governorate. It is also limited to the second semester of the academic year 2013 - 2014.To ascertain the face validity, the post test is submitted to a jury of members in the field of language teaching, linguistics, and educational statistics. After that, a pilot test is administered to a sample of (100) pupils to determine the suitability of the test items. Kuder - Richardson formula is used to find out the test reliability. The test in its final version is administered as a pre - test to the experimental groups which includes (50) pupils on 2 February 2014. Following the same procedures with posttest. The students were post - tested on the 14th and 15th of April 2014.After administering the achievement posttest, the results of the study indicated clearly that the achievement of the experimental group(scaffolding learning group) is higher than that of control group. In other words experimental groups who have been exposed to the suggested techniques (scaffolding learning, discovery learning) are more effective than that of the control group who have been exposed to currently used techniques, the achievement of experimental group who have been taught by scaffolding strategy is higher than that of discovery learning method.On the basis of the results obtained from this study, a number of conclusions have been drawn, among which the most important ones are : 1 - teaching and learning reading comprehension through certain techniques, being suggest, are more effective than those techniques used in the prescribed textbook;2 - the techniques employed by the researcher, are proved to be more effective and fruitful in promoting the students’ ability in reading comprehension than the currently used techniques;3.the scaffolding and discovery learning techniques give the students more opportunities than those in the textbook to store vocabulary and retain or retrieve easily what has been taught orlearned. This has been arrived at as a result of observing the students while receiving training in these techniques;4. students use the information they gain to solve problems, take decision etc, then they share their solutions, decisions, thinking and outcomes in a celebration of understanding rather than being involved in a process of shifting and mere sharing of information and;5. students are actively supported and scaffolded by teachers in the acquisition of relevant skills.In the light of the conclusions, relevant pedagogical recommendations and several suggestions for further studies are presented.

Abstract: Genre - based approach offers a valuable resource for both pre - and in - service writing instructors to assist their students to produce effective and relevant texts. Instead of focusing on the process of composition, the content of texts, or the abstract prescriptions of disembodied grammars, genre approach enables teachers to ground their courses in the texts that students will have to write in their target contexts, thereby supporting learners to participate effectively in the world outside the EFL classroom.The current research aims at investigating the effect of using genre - based approach as a teaching technique on Iraqi EFL learners’ performance in essay writing.The current study is hypothesized that there are no statistically significant differences between the performancet mean score of the experimental group (taught essay writing by using genre - based approach) and that of the control group (taught essay writing according to the method stated in the Teacher’s Guide).The population of the study consists of fifth - grade male students/scientific branch at the secondary stage in the city of Baghdad during the academic year 2013 - 2014. The experiment of the study lasted two months. It started on 26th of February and ended on 27th of April, 2014.The sample of the study has been intentionally chosen from among male secondary school students in the city of Baghdad. Itconsists of 65 students. The non - equivalent posttest control group has been chosen as the experimental design. Therefore, the first group represents the experimental group which has been taught by using genre - based approach, and the second group represents the control group which has been taught according to the method stated in the Teacher’s Guide.Pre and post written tests are designed and exposed to a jury for the purpose of ascertaining their validity. The inter - rater Pearson correlation coefficient formula is used to calculate the tests reliability yielding coefficients of 0.82 which is considered an acceptable coefficient.At the end of the period of the experiment, the post - test is administered. The mean of the experimental group is 65.906, and the mean of the control group is 58.757.The t - test formula for two independent samples is conducted. The results of the analysis indicate that there is a statistically significant difference between the experimental group and control group where the experimental group proved to be better than the control group.In accordance with the results obtained, some conclusions, recommendations and suggestions for further studies on the topic have been stated.
