Özet:

 


This paper reports on research that investigated the perceptions of students and
teachers regarding the simulation methodology used in a remedial language
course at a university in Lebanon. The research aims to understand whether the
students from different language backgrounds have different perceptions of the
benefits of the simulation methodology on their language learning and in
addition explores the teachers’ perceptions of the methodology. Two data
gathering instruments were used: a semi- structured interview and a survey. The
research population included 8 teachers and 174 students. The findings reveal that
a majority of the students, regardless of their language background, perceive
positive impact of the simulation methodology on their language learning but
cannot or choose not to work independently outside the classroom. Teachers are
supporters of the methodology even though there seems to be some concerns
about student readiness.
