Algerian Efl Students' Attitudes Toward Online Vs. Traditional Classroom Learning Environments



Authors : Djaidja Asma . Ahmed Kadi Abla .

Abstract

The rapid evolution of technology has brought about profound changes in education globally. In Algeria, where English as a Foreign Language (EFL) education is pivotal for fostering international communication and career prospects, the traditional classroom setting has traditionally been the primary mode of instruction. However, the emergence of online learning platforms, compounded by the COVID-19 pandemic's necessitated shift to remote education, has spurred debates regarding the efficacy of online versus traditional classroom learning environments. This study investigates the perceptions of Algerian EFL students regarding online and traditional classroom learning. With a group of participants including 60 students from various Algerian universities, this research utilizes qualitative research methods, specifically semi-structured interviews, to gain insights into students' views, preferences, and experiences in both learning settings. By comparing and contrasting these perspectives, this study aims to provide an accurate understanding of the advantages, challenges, and potential benefits of online and traditional classroom instruction in Algeria's EFL context. The findings have the potential to inform educational strategies and policies, aligning them more closely with students' needs and preferences in the evolving landscape of higher education.
