Authors : Ramdane Mehiri . Fatima Hafide .

Abstract

This study sought to examine the effectiveness of using authentic materials in written expression classes in order to improve the use of contextual vocabulary and idioms at the Section of English in Biskra University. In order to collect data, the researchers used an intervention strategy that consisted of a pre-test, a treatment, and a post-test with a sample of 22 second year students. In addition, an interview was designed for 5 teachers of written expression to elicit their attitudes towards the use of authentic materials in teaching written expression. The researchers believe that there are many sourcesand types of authentic materials such as magazines which may help learners to study and employ appropriately vocabulary and idioms. The results show that the learners’ use of contextual vocabulary and idioms has been increased, and that teachers of the course prefer to use authentic materials and agree that these latter are effective to teach vocabulary and idioms in written expression courses.
