Abstract: تعد ستراتيجيات تعلم اللغة من افضل واصح الطرق لدارسي اللغة الانكليزية لغة اجنبيه وتعد واحدة من العناصر الرئيسية والمهمة لدارسي اللغة الانكليزية لغة اجنبيه لتحقيق اهدافهم في اتقان اللغة الاجنبية وثقافتها لان هذه الاستراتيجيات تكون الجزء الاساسي في تطوير النظام اللغوي الذي يبنيه المتعلم وتؤثر في التعلم بصورة مباشرة. ولكن نجد طلابنا ليس لديهم فكرة او اعتقاد لاستخدام ستراتيجية محددة يعتقدون بفائدتها اوطريقه محددة من طرائق التدريس ويربطون بينهم لانجاح مهمة التعليم والتعلم. تهدف الدراسة الحالية الى تحديد ستراتيجيات تعلم اللغة الانكليزية للطلاب المعلمين ووصف اعتقاداتهم اتجاه تعليم منهجيات في اللغة الانكليزية لغة اجنبية والعلاقة بينهم. لتحقيق تلك الاهداف طبقت في هده الدراسه استبانه تالفت من مقياسين (1) لمسح استراتيجيات اللغة (نسخة 7.0 لدارسي اللغة الانكليزية لغة اجنبيه او ثانيه اكسفورد, 1990 ) و(2) اعتقاداتهم اتجاه منهجيات تعلم الانكليزية (Chen, 2005). وقدمت الى 102 من الطلاب المعلمين في قسمي اللغة الانكليزية بكليتي التربية الاساسية في الجامعتي ديالى والمستنصريه للعام الاكاديمي 2015 - 2016. ان تحليل البيانات الكمية في الدراسة الحالية طبق القياس الوصفي بالاضافة الى التحليل الاستنتاجي ويتكون من تحليل التباين ومعامل ارتباط بيرسون واستعمل لملاحظة العلاقة بين ستراتيجيات تعلم اللغة والاعتقادات اتجاه تعليم المنهجيات. فيما يتعلق بستراتيجيات تعلم اللغة تشير النتائج الى ان استخدام هؤلاء الطلاب المعلمين لستراتيجيات تعلم اللغة لتعلم الانكليزية تقريبا مرتفع في كثير من الاحيان ولو بشكل غير متساو حسب القيمة التائية وكانت قيمتها (3,36 ) . وايضا تشير النتائج ان الطلاب المعلمين اعتقادهم اتجاه منهجيات التعليم هو تفضيل طريقة تعليم اللغة التواصلية(CLT )على طريقه اللغات الصوتية(ALM). ومن هذواجد ان هؤلاء الطلاب المعلمين ستتبنى نظريات اللغة من كلا الطريقتين التي ذكرت سابقا. بينما نتائج العلاقة بين ستراتيجيات تعلم اللغة لطلاب المعلمين واعتقاداتهم اتجاه منهجيات التعليم تشير ان هناك علاقه ذات دلاله احصائية ومع ذلك كانت الارتباطات صغيره بامكاننا القول ان هناك علاقه ايجابيه موجوده بين ستراتيجيات التعلم واعتقادات التعليم. تلك النتائج يمكن ان تؤخذ بالفائدة للمعلم, في خطة المؤسسات التربوية , في تطوير وبناء المناهج والمواد التعليمية. ايضا هذه الدراسة تزود الباحثين والمعلم التربوي بمعلومات لفهم كيفة تعلم الطالب المعلم او المتعلم بصوره عامه للانكليزية وكيفة استخدامهم لمنهجيات تعليم اللغة الانكليزية لغة اجنبيه في تعليم طلابهم مستقبلا, وكيف هؤلاء المعلمين يمارسون التعلم واعتقادات التدريس وعلاقة بعضها البعض. | Strategies language learning are the best and right way to learn a foreign language and also are considered one of the key and important elements for EFL students to achieve their goals of mastering the foreign language and its culture, because, they are an essential part of the improvement of the language framework which the learner develops. Unfortunately, our student - teachers have no idea to use a certain strategy or a certain method of teaching and linking them to the success of the teaching and learning mission. The current study was an attempt to explore student - teachers' English Language Learning Strategies and their convictions towards EFL teaching methodologies. In addition, the relationship among these student - teachers' English language learning strategies and their beliefs towards EFL teaching methodologies were also investigated. To achieve these aims, a survey was conducted. The questionnaire of the study consists of two measures : (1) strategies inventory for language learning (version 7.0 for ESL/EFL, Oxford, 1990), and (2) beliefs toward English teaching methodologies (Chen, 2005) handed the sample of the study covers 102 student teachers, from the English language Department at College of Basic Education in Al - Mustansiriah and Diyala University for the academic year 2015 - 2016.To analyze the quantitative data of the current study, descriptive as well as inferential analyses including ANOVA and Pearson's correlation coefficient were utilized for the purpose of investigating connections between language learning strategies and beliefs toward teaching methodologies. Concerning English language learning strategies, the outcomes indicated that these student - teachers used language learning strategies to learn English in almost a high frequency (T.Value=3.36). Also, the results indicated that student - teachers in teaching beliefs toward EFL methodologies preferred Communicative Language Teaching to the Audio - lingual Method. In the light of these results, it was found that these student - teachers would adopt language theories from both CLT and ALM. While the results showed the relationship between student - teachers' language learning strategies and their teaching beliefs were statistically significant correlations. Nevertheless, the correlations were small. We can say that there is a positive relationship between learning strategies and teaching beliefs

Abstract: ان تراكيب قواعد اللغة ليست سهلة الاتقان وذلك بسبب التنويع بين انظمة القواعد في كلا اللغتين العربية والانجليزية. لذا،يجب ان يعكس المعلمون بعمق هذه السمة ويحاولوا تجربة التقنيات الجديدة ذات الصعوبة والتي قد تثبت فعالية حل هذه المشكلة التي توثق الى حد كبير في تعلم تدريس اللغة الاجنبية. شدد جواد (2 : 2006) في رسالته الموسومة على هذه الفكرة وذكر ان الاستخدام للمتعلمين العراقيين للغة الاجنبية لا يستطيعون التفريق بين الانماط القواعدية للغة الانكليزية. لذلك،فان الدراسة الحالية هي محاولة لمعالجة هذه المشكلة باستخدام تقنية Fishbowl وتتمنى ملئ الفجوة في تعليم قواعداللغة الانجليزية للمتعلمين العراقيين.تهدف هذه الدراسة الى تحري تاثير استخدام تقنية حوض السمك Fishbowlفي تعلم العراقيين للغة الانكليزية لغة اجنبية. ولتحقيق هدف الدراسة، تبنت الباحثة التصميم التجريبي المناسب في 16/2/2014و طبقت الباحثة تجربتهوااختارت عينة شملت (76) طالبة قسمت الى (38) طالبة للمجموعة التجريبية و(38) طالبة للمجموعة الضابطة. وكان اختيار الباحثة لافراد العينه بشكل عشوائي من مدرسة ثانوية التسامح للبنات في المديرية العامة لتربية الرصافة الثانية.استخدمت الباحثة تقنية حوض السمك Fishbowl واستعمالها لتعليم الطالبات قواعد اللغة الانكليزية في تعليم المجموعة التجريبية، بينما استعملت الاسلوب التقليدي في تعليم المجموعة الضابطة للسنة الدراسية (2014 - 2015) وتم اعداد اختبارتحصيلي لكي يستعمل للاختبار البعدي للمجموعتين. بدات التجربة في تاريخ 16/2/ 2014 - 2015 وانتهت في تاريخ 15/4/2014 - 2015 وبمعنى اخر,دامت ثمانية اسابيع.و صيغت فرضية واحدة لاجراء التجربة وهي : * ليس هناك اختلاف ذو دلالة احصائية بين متوسط درجات الطالبات اللاتي تم تعليمهن تراكيب قواعدية باستخدام تقنية حوض السمك Fishbowl واللاتي تعلمن هذه التراكيب باستخدام الطريقة التقليدية الموجودة في دليل المعلم.وتم تحليل البيانات بشكل احصائي باستعمال صيغة الاختبار التائي لقياس الاختلافات بين تحصيل المجموعة التجريبية في الاختبار القبلي والبعدي. واثبتت النتائج المحسوبة بان هناك اختلافات مهمة احصائيا بين انجاز العينة لحساب العينة التجريبية في الاختبار البعدي. وهذا يشير بان تقنية Fishbowl اكثر فعالية في تعليم قواعد اللغة من الطريقة المعتمدة في دليل المعلم. وبناء على ذلك، فقد تم رفض فرضية هذه الدراسة. | Grammar structures are not easy to master because of the diversity between the grammar systems of Arabic and English. Therefore, teachers should reflect deeply this aspect and should try hard to experiment new techniques that may prove effective to redress this problem which is highly documented in the literature of ELT Jawad (2006 : 2) stresses this idea by stating that Iraqi EFL users cannot differentiate between grammatical patterns. Hence, the present study is an attempt to tackle this problem using the Fishbowl Technique hoping to fill a gap in the domain of teaching English grammar to Iraqi learners. This study aims at investigating the effect of Fishbowl Technique on the Iraqi EFL students' achievement in grammar. To achieve the aim of the study, an experiment was carried out on 16/2/2014, hoping to verify the hypothesis which states that : There is no statistically significant difference between the mean scores of the students taught grammatical structures using the Fishbowl Technique and that of those who are taught these structures using the prescribed method recommended by the Teacher's Guide of book. The sample of the study consisted of (76) female fifth grade students divided into (38) students for the experimental group and (38) students for the control one. It was randomly chosen from Al - Tasamuh Secondary School for girls in Baghdad Governorate. Fishbowl technique has been used to teach the experimental group, while the prescribed techniques are used to teach the control one in the second term of the school year (2014 - 2015).An achievement test of five subtests is designed and used as a pre - and - posttest for the two groups.The experiment started on 16/2/2015 and ended on 15/4/ 2015 i.e., it lasted eight weeks. The collected Data has been analyzed statistically by using t - test formula to measure the differences between the means of scores of the achievement of the experimental group, and those of the control group in the pre and posttest. The calculated results have shown that there is a statistically significant difference between the achievement of the control on the pre and that of the posttest. This indicates that fishbowl technique is more effective in teaching grammar. Thus, the null hypothesis of this study is rejected. As a result, it is possible to recommend that Fishbowl technique is more effective than the recommended techniques. Finally, some pedagogical recommendations and some suggestions for further research are put forward

Abstract: تؤدي الالعاب اللغوية دورا مهما في عملية التعليم والتعلم لكونها تسهل مواقف تعلم اللغة وتوفر مدخلات مفهومة وتمكن التلاميذ من التعلم لاشعوريا بشكل يرتبط بالمتعة والمرح في جو غير رسمي يجعلهم يشاركون في استخدام اللغة الاجنبية دون قيود. اضافة ا | Language games play an important role in the teaching - learning process since they ease the situation of language learning, provide comprehensible input, and enable pupils to learn subconsciously with enjoyment and fun in an informal atmosphere that makes pupils freely participate in using the foreign language. Moreover, language games have a significant role in increasing pupils’ proficiency and ability in using language with a purpose in the situation that they provide. Hence, the present study aims at : 1 - empirically investigating the effect of using games on the first intermediate graders’ achievement in pronunciation and spelling ; and 2 - developing pupils’ ability in these two areas. To fulfil these aims, two null hypotheses are postulated. They are : 1 - There is no statistically significant difference between the achievement of the pupils who are taught pronunciation and spelling through using language games and that of the pupils who are taught these areas through the conventional way. 2 - There is no statistically significant difference between the experimental group pupils’ achievement in the pre and posttests of pronunciation and spelling. To achieve the aims of this study, an experiment was conducted using the ‘pretest - posttest non equivalent groups’ experimental design. Two sections of thirty - six pupils each were randomly selected from Jareer Secondary School for Girls. One of these sections was also randomly assigned to be the experimental group (taught with the use of games) and the other to be the control one (taught without using games). The subjects of the groups were statistically matched in a number of variables. The researcher herself taught the two groups the same material, which is six units of NECI (Book III). The experiment lasted six weeks. Two achievement tests were constructed (a pronunciation test and a spelling test) based on a content analysis of the material taught during the experiment; thus their content validity was ascertained. Then the two tests were exposed to a jury of experts to ensure their face validity. Concerning the reliability of the two tests, several methods were used : split half, Kuder - Richardson formula 20, alpha Cronbach and intrascorer reliability, yielding reliability coefficients that range between 0.516 and 0.798. An item analysis was carried out for each test to determine item difficulty level and item discriminating power. Then the same tests were administered to the study subjects before and after the instruction. Using the t - test for two independent samples, it is found out that there are statistically significant differences in the pronunciation and spelling tests at 0.05 level in favour of the experimental group. The results also indicate that , using the t - test for two dependent samples, there is a significant development in the experimental group pupils’ achievement in both pronunciation and spelling tests.The researcher comes to the conclusion that using language games positively affects the pupils’ achievement in pronunciation and spelling and improves their learning in these two areas.In the light of the study results, a number of recommendations and suggestions for further research were made.

Abstract: يعد الاستيعاب القرائي واحدا من المهارات المهمة الواجب تطويرها لما له من وثيق الصلة بتطور القدرة اللغوية لدى متعلمي اللغة الاجنبية في حياتهم المستقبلية فباكتسابهم عادات القراءة الصحيحة يستطيع هؤلاء المتعلمون ان يحققوا نجاحا في كافة المواد المطلوب منهم قر | Reading comprehension occupies an important position in the 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 intermediate stage). English foreign language teachers in Iraq complain of their students' low ability in reading comprehension, especially in answering higher level questions. To overcome this problem, the 'using Questioning Techniques' are suggested to activate learners' both lower and higher levels of cognitive skills and urge them to use their background knowledge to interact with the text, and to enable teachers to involve their students in a complemented interactive process in the classroom. Hence, the present study aims at empirically investigating using questioning techniques (using the lower level of questions) on EFL second intermediate school' achievement in reading comprehension. To achieve the aim of the study, it is hypothesized that there is no statistically significant difference between the scores of the experimental group who is taught according to Bloom's levels of questioning and the control group who is taught according to the classical teaching method. To verify this hypothesis, a pre - posttest experiment has been designed. Eighty - one second - grade Intermediate male students are assigned to the experimental and control groups, 40 students are for the experimental group and 41students also are for the control group. Both groups are statistically equalized in a number of variables such as age, parents' level of education, student's intelligence level, students' scores in English in the previous year, and students' scores obtained on the pretest. The experimental group has been reading comprehension by using Bloom's levels of questioning whereas the control group is taught by the Classical Teaching Method (i.e., currently - followed method),.The method has been recommended in the teacher's guide for Book 6. The experiment is conducted in Zain Al - Abideen Intermediate School for Boys, and lasted for two months in the academic year 2012 - 2013.After administering the posttest, the results obtained show indicate clearly that the achievement of the experimental group who were taught by using Bloom's levels of questioning has been higher than that of the control group who was taught by the classical teaching method. In other words, Bloom's levels of questioning is more effective than the classical method. Due to the results obtained from this study, a number of conclusions has been come up with, among which the most important ones are : 1. Teaching literary section according to Bloom's levels of questions in RC gives the students the opportunity to comprehend so many vocabularies and to increase their vocabularies store. This leads to generate many ideas concerning one subject, and widen their imagination.2. Bloom's levels of questioning have proven to be an effective and useful ones for using questioning techniques because they enable the teacher to guide and evaluate the students’ progress from one level to another in a gradual manner. 3. Literature helps students to be well - quainter with the English culture which in turn expands their skills, culture knowledge.Also, Recommendations and suggestions for further studies have been put forward.

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.

The effect of using dramatization as a teaching technique on the achievement of EFL college students in Situational Dialogues (SDs).2. Whether using dramatization in teaching English conversation has an equal or different effect on students' written and oral achievement in Situational Dialogues (SDs).To achieve these aims, three hypotheses have been formulated as follows : 1. There is no significant deference in the mean scores of the written achievement test between the experimental group which is exposed to dramatization, and that of the control group which is not exposed to dramatization. 2. There is no significant difference in the mean scores of the oral achievement test between the experimental group which is exposed to dramatization, and that of the control group which is not exposed to dramatization.3. There is no significant difference between the mean scores of the experimental group's written achievement and that of their oral achievement in Situational Dialogues (SDs).The present study is limited to the first year EFL college students in the College of Education / Ibn - Rushd at Baghdad University in the academic year 2004 - 2005 and to the textbook of conversation taught at the first stage entitled : "Situational Dialogues" written by Micheal Okenden (1972). The experimental design decided is the type of "the post - test only control group design". The sample of the study consists of sixty students selected randomly out of 160 students which represent 37.5 percent of its original population. The chosen sample is divided into two equal groups, the experimental and control which have been equalized in the variables of : age, average of achievement in the General Baccalaureate Examination of the previous year, the parents' level of education, and students' scores in English of the previous year. The experimental group has been taught according to dramatization technique while the control group has been taught according to the traditional technique, i.e. without dramatization.At the end of the experiment, the two groups are subjected to oral and written achievement tests. After the administration of the two tests to the selected sample, testees' responses have been processed statistically using the appropriate statistical means.The obtained results reveal that : 1 - The mean scores of the experimental group's written achievement is 77.40, whereas that of the control group is 70. 2 - There is significant difference between the two groups in written achievement test, in favour of the experimental group at 0.05 level of significance and with 58 degree of freedom.3 - The mean scores of the experimental group's oral achievement is 78.67, whereas that of the control group is 65.37.4 - There is significant difference between the two groups in oral achievement test, in favour of the experimental group at 0.05 level of significance and with 58 degree of freedom.5 - The mean scores of the experimental group's oral achievement is 72.52, whereas that of the written achievement is 73.72.6 - There is no significant difference at 0.05 level of significance and with 118 degree of freedom between the oral achievement, on one hand and the written achievement , on the other hand of the experimental group. Later on, a number of recommendations and suggestions are stated; the following are some of them : Recommendations : 1. It is necessary to use dramatization as a teaching technique in teaching Situational Dialogues for EFL first year college students.2. The necessity of putting students in actions and active situations, and motivate them to dramatize and act out roles during teaching EFL subjects and especially Situational Dialogues. 3. A pamphlet which includes a full explanation for each situation by using dramatization technique and how to employ it inside the classroom could be supplied to teachers of Situational Dialogues.4. Constructing TV programme that depends on utilizing dramatization technique in teaching English dialogues for primary, secondary and intermediate stages.Suggestions : 1. Experimenting the effectiveness of using dramatization in teaching other English subjects like (grammar, composition, poetry, novel, drama, etc).2. Conducting similar studies for teaching English by using dramatization at other academic stages especially at the primary & secondary stages.3. Making a comparative study between the efficiency of dramatization and other new teaching techniques in developing students' achievement at the various levels of study such as : primary, secondary, etc.

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.
