Integrating Reading And Writing For Better Writing Performance: A Comparative Study
Authors : Fetsi Esma .
Abstract
Reading and writing are often seen as integrated skills. Some thinkers consider that they ought to be taught as a single subject, while others see them better as separate skills. In our immediate environment, it is noticed that in the Teachers Training School they are taught as separate subjects; while in the English department of Constantine 1 university there is no room for 'reading'. This study aims primarily at investigating the relationship between reading and writing in teaching English as a foreign language. We hypothesize that if Reading and Writing were taught as integrated skills, the students' performance in Writing would be enhanced significantly. To test our hypothesis, the descriptive method has been chosen. Two questionnaires were administered to teachers of Constantine 1 and the Teachers Training School English departments in order to prove that Reading Comprehension needs to be taught as a separate subject in the English Department of Constantine 1 university to help students improve their writing skill.
