Conversation Analysis in EFL Classroom Research
In this paper, we looked at how combining corpus linguistics and conversation
analysis could reveal new insights into the relationship between interaction patterns,
language usage, and grammatical patterns learning. The Conversation Analysis
method (CA) was conducted with a sample of 30 students in the Department of
English language at M’sila University over a period of a whole year. The choice fell
on the (CA) because it combines corpus linguistics (CL) and applied conversation
analysis (CA), enabling quantitative findings to be elaborated by more close-up
qualitative analysis of sequences of interaction. One simple system in this tradition
was selected: Brown Interaction Analysis System (BIAS), which is a descriptive
framework that aims to analyse classroom verbal interaction. Several adaptations,
extensions, and simplifications were made to it to make it more applicable to the
context of group interaction. The basic descriptive categories in the adapted BIAS
were ten speech functions: questioning language use, repairing grammatical forms,
asking for explanation, explaining, confirming, proposing, agreeing, disagreeing and
silence. The obtained results indicate that learners group work had a positive effect on
EFL learners’ achievement, and that factors such as: the group size, the nature of the
interaction, the role of the learner, and the type of the task-based grammatical pattern
had an impactful effect on EFL learners’ grammatical patters’ learning.
Key words: corpus linguistics; conversation analysis; language learning; learners’
interaction; grammatical patterns.

Unveiling the Depths of Erikson's Psychosocial Theory: Empowering Strategies for Lifespan Well-being
Psychosocial development refers to the lifelong process of psychological and social
growth and change that occurs in individuals. Coined by psychologist Erik Erikson,
psychosocial development encompasses the integration of emotional, cognitive, and
social factors as individuals progress through various stages of life. This theoretical
framework emphasizes the dynamic interplay between an individual's internal
psychological development and their interactions with the social environment.
This presentation delves into the profound insights of Erikson's Psychosocial Theory,
offering a nuanced exploration of its relevance to fostering well-being throughout the
entire lifespan. By examining the eight psychosocial stages, from infancy to late
adulthood, the presentation aims to illuminate the intricate interplay between
individual development and societal influences.
In addition to unraveling the theoretical foundations, practical strategies for promoting
optimal well-being will be presented. Further more, it is worthnoting that while Erik
Erikson's Psychosocial Theory has made significant contributions to the field of
developmental psychology, it has faced several criticisms, which will be highlighted.
Key words : Psychosocial Theory, Lifespan Development, Erikson's Stages, Well-
being Strategies, Developmental Resilience

Sports: A Catalyst For Social Progress Peddled By American Athletes
Sport is the most popular cultural practice that is sewn into the social texture and intersects with its driving forces: political, cultural, and economic. The playing field is, by all means, a terrain upon which social struggles and political debacles are reflected. For all intent and purposes, the article capitalizes on the American athletes' role in distorting and reshaping the political dialogue and tilting the balance of power in favor of the oppressed. The article address the politics-sport entanglement, be it conflictual or collusive, through a figurational sociology prism to deconstruct the athletes' protests in and off the playing field across the various social figurations.

Integrating ICT-aided Collaborative Learning in Civilization Instruction
Higher education research continually emphasizes the need of preparing technology to be utilized as a tool rather than an end in and of itself. However, the effectiveness of ICT in education is determined not just by the technology's features and functions, but also by the pedagogical method applied. In this regard, the current study aims at depicting the impact of ICT-aided collaborative learning as a teaching strategy on EFL students’ American Civilization/history literacy in higher education. Along a whole semester, a one group quasi- experimental design was conducted with a sample of thirty (30) third-year under-graduate students at the department of English at M’sila University, Algeria. To investigate the impact of this teaching method on the students' performance in civilization, they received pre and a posttest inspired from Bloom taxonomy targeting three levels: knowledge, comprehension, and analysis. The findings of the study reveal a positive impact of the ICT-aided collaborative learning method on students' civilization knowledge and comprehension, but no effect on their level of analysis and evaluation. As a conclusion, to ensure the effectiveness of supporting ICTs with collaborative learning in teaching civilization a variety of well-designed tasks is highly recommended to target different cognitive processes.

An Overview on Sampling in Research Methodology
Research is defined as a studious inquiry or examination, particularly investigation or experimentation aimed at the discovery and interpretation of facts, revision of accepted theories or laws in light of new facts, or gathering of data on a specific topic (Webster, 1985). To generate data, it is not always easy or essential to use or reach the entire study population, because a representative sample can provide the information required. Thus, the researcher should select a sample from which to generalize the findings. The issue of sampling is one of the factors of research design that field researchers usually overlook, and much of the discussion of fieldwork research focuses on how researchers select their samples and what this means for the knowledge acquired by their research. Furthermore, because there are various types of sampling techniques and methods, the researcher must be aware of the distinctions in order to select the appropriate sample method for the study. In this regard, the current paper casts light on the various types of sampling procedures and methods and explains how to conduct sampling.
Key words: Research, sampling, types, methods, techniques, field work

Algerians were living in: that of Yasmina Khadra. This writer, but also an ex-officer in the
Algerian military body, through his novel Les agneaux du Seigneur tempts to unveil a state of
decomposition and desolation of a society prey to the civil war. The core aim of this article is
to examine how Les agneaux du Seigneur portrays, explores, and analyzes the Algerian Civil
War. Indeed, the article analyzes and interprets the novel through a profound historical and
literary contextualization. Algeria’s disorder, its sluggish state, the Islamist movement (The Islamic Salvation Front- FIS), the insurgency, and the dreadful bloody violence that continued
throughout the 1990s are crucial thematic elements used to understanding the civil war.

EFL Students’ Perception about Online Learning of Written Expression during the Pandemic-19
The world's experience during Pandemic-19 resulted in a surge in demand for online education, which rapidly infiltrated school districts and universities. In this regard, an online survey based on a semi-structured questionnaire was conducted with a sample of 60 EFL second-year students from M'sila University's Department of English regarding their experience of distant learning of written expression, which is one of the basic modules in learning English. Through this questionnaire we tried to shed light on their motivation, their needs, their active participation, the frequency of online learning use and their assessment. The obtained results revealed that the most critical issues are technological issues, prompted by teachers' lack of technical skills and teaching styles that are not well adapted to the online world. Furthermore, students claimed that because of the lack of interaction and boredom, written expression courses are less motivating in online classes. Moreover, it was observed that teachers used a variety of teaching methods in the classroom to promote students' writing abilities, as opposed to online learning. A set of suggestions and recommendations are provided by the end.

EFL Teachers' Perceptions on Blended Learning of Written Expression During Pandemic-19.
linguistic skills to master. This complexity frequently makes the teachers’ mission difficult and affects the students’ language learning comprehension and performance. However, with the rapid advancement of internet technology and the pandemic-19, blended-learning (abbreviated as BL) approach has been widely
adopted and teachers become obliged to adapt to the new circumstances and try new teaching methods. The current paper aims at probing EFL teachers' perceptions of blended learning of written expression during pandemic-19. A survey was conducted with a sample of nine teachers of written expression module from the department of English at M’sila University. The findings demonstrate that teachers are dissatisfied with blended learning of written expression for a variety of reasons, and they offer a set of suggestions and recommendations based on their experiences.

Students’ Learning and Outcomes as Indicators of Quality Teaching in Higher Education
Quality Teaching is believed to be one of the controversial terms that raised debates among the scholars who have been divided into those who regard quality primarily as an outcome, and those who view it as a property. Another trend considers teaching as the never ending process of reduction of defects and so Quality Teaching can never be totally grasped and appraised. Accordingly, the issue of measuring quality teaching is highly crucial, and the choice of valid indicators to assess the quality of teaching is not yet standardized and is still challenging. Furthermore the emerging consensus explores that traditional teacher evaluation methods are inadequate and inconsequential in ensuring a quality teaching workforce. In this regard, the current paper attempts to introduce firstly a set of competitive definitions of quality teaching, and secondly shedding light on the new criteria for evaluation that rely more on student learning and outcomes, and also on multiple measures that are expected to ensure a more holistic assessment of teacher performance and initiatives. Finally, a series of considerations and recommendations are stated for the betterment of quality teaching.
Keywords: assessment, learners, measurement, performance, university.

The Impact of the Cooperative Learning of Idioms on EFL Learners’ Fluency
because, by definition, idioms are conventionalized expressions whose overall meaning cannot be
determined from the meaning of their constituent parts, and they are conceived as the natural
decoders of cultural aspects in real life settings and a major component of native-like communication.
Thus, the issue of teaching idioms in EFL classroom needs a special pedagogical method to foster the
learners’ communicative skills. The current research paper attempts to scrutinize the impact of the
cooperative learning of idioms upon EFL learners’ fluency. Therefore, it follows a one group pretest/
post-test quasi-experimental design, with a sample group of fifteen (15) first-year students at the
Department of English at M’ sila University. Their fluency was evaluated before and after the
intervention sessions within which the participants were requested to implement peer-to-peer tutoring
for a whole semester. The findings indicated that learning idioms cooperatively fosters the learner’s
fluency through facilitating the vocabulary retention (many words within one unit), and enabling him to
understand the thoughts, emotions and views of the native speakers, and providing the learner with
information about the underlying parameters of English. Moreover, it raises his awareness of figurative
language to have better communication strategies. Thus, the consideration of culture in designing and
developing course materials is highly recommended to reach higher level of oral proficiency in English
language.
