Impact of Online Instruction on EFL Students' Cultural Awareness
Al-Jarf, Reima Sado
Online Submission, Paper presented at the APETAU Conference (3rd, Amman, Jordan, Aug 23-25, 2006)
The present study reports results of an experiment with two groups of sophomore students majoring in translation. The control group was taught British culture using in-class instruction only, and the experimental group was taught using a combination of online and in-class instruction. Experimental students used the online course from home as the internet was inaccessible from campus. Both groups were pre and post-tested. The impact of online instruction on cultural awareness, the relationship between the online course frequency usage and cultural awareness, and the impact of online instruction on students' attitudes are reported.
