ISBN-13: 9783659720802 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 140 str.
Many empirical investigations have demonstrated that explicit Focus on Form(FOF)methods are more effective than implicit Focus on Meaning(FOM)methods, because in FOF instruction learners' attention is drawn to linguistic form while FOM instruction requires learners'attention to communicate. However, this piece of research focused on both the effectiveness and feasibility study of FOFvs.FOM in reading class.In this quasi-experimental study,20 adult EFL learners of pre-intermediate level were divided into two experimental groups which received two different types of instruction.During a ten-session treatment, the first group was provided with FOFinstruction, while the second group was provided with FOM instruction.The results revealed a significant difference between two experimental groups.The FOF group scored significantly higher than the FOM group.Regarding the students and teachers' perspectives towards feasibility of FOF in reading class, the students believed that FOF was feasible in reading classes, while the teachers were not unanimous in this regard, but towards feasibility of FOM both groups held positive attitudes.So, both FOF and FOM have feasibility in reading
