Managing University Large Classes: A Descriptive Study
Authors : Mehiri Ramdane . Sabbahi Arbia .
Abstract
The present study sought to identify practical strategies and techniques which might help EFL teachers to establish an effective classroom management for large classes. The underlying hypotheses of this research state that students’ responsibility and involvement in the teaching learning process would enable teachers to maintain control and teach effectively in large classes. The investigation was conducted through a questionnaire administered to thirteen (13) teachers who have been teaching large EFL classes for a long time at the Department of English, Mohamed khider University, Algeria. The results revealed that involving students in classroom management enhanced their sense of belonging, their responsibility towards their behaviour and, thereby, reduced disruptive manners. Based on these results, the main hypothesis was confirmed in that students’ involvement should be highlighted in the process of organizing a positive and efficient educational environment, selecting appropriate instructional and assessment strategies. Therefore, the researchers recommend that future research in this area should be conducted experimentally to test the applicability of the findings to a larger population.
