Didactics in research refers to the principles and methods of teaching and learning within the context of academic research. It involves instructing individuals on the various aspects of research methodology, including research design, data collection, analysis, and interpretation. Didactics in research aims to enhance the understanding and skills of individuals engaged in or aspiring to conduct research, providing them with the tools and knowledge necessary for successful scholarly endeavors. This educational approach often includes practical exercises, workshops, and guidance to foster effective research practices and critical thinking among researchers. The ultimate goal is to contribute to the development of competent and ethical researchers in diverse fields of study.

Research can be broadly categorized into two main types: qualitative and quantitative. Qualitative research focuses on exploring and understanding complex phenomena through non-numerical data, such as interviews, observations, or case studies. It aims to uncover underlying meanings and patterns in subjective experiences. On the other hand, quantitative research involves the collection and analysis of numerical data to identify patterns, relationships, and statistical significance. This type of research uses structured instruments, surveys, and experiments to measure variables and draw objective conclusions. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches have their strengths and limitations, and researchers often choose between them based on the nature of their research questions and objectives. Additionally, other research classifications include applied vs. basic research, descriptive vs. experimental research, and cross-sectional vs. longitudinal research. Each type serves specific purposes in advancing knowledge across various disciplines.

Didactics plays a crucial role in the process of writing a doctoral thesis by providing essential guidance and educational support to doctoral candidates. It assists in shaping the research skills and methodological understanding necessary for a comprehensive thesis. Didactics in this context involves teaching elements such as research design, literature review, data collection methods, analysis techniques, and ethical considerations. It aids doctoral candidates in developing critical thinking skills, ensuring the rigor and quality of their research. Additionally, didactics helps refine academic writing skills, promoting clarity, coherence, and adherence to scholarly conventions. Through workshops, seminars, and mentoring, it fosters an environment where candidates can engage in constructive feedback and discussions, enhancing their ability to articulate and defend their research effectively. Ultimately, the contribution of didactics in doctorate thesis writing extends beyond knowledge acquisition, nurturing the overall research competence of candidates and preparing them for successful completion of their doctoral studies.

Scientific research, while crucial for advancing knowledge and understanding, faces various constraints that can impact its progress. Here's a brief overview of some common constraints: Financial Constraints: Funding is often a significant limitation for research projects. Securing grants and resources can be competitive, and researchers may face challenges in obtaining the necessary financial support for their work. Time Constraints: Research projects require time for planning, execution, and analysis. Researchers may face time constraints due to deadlines, limited project durations, or the need to produce results within a specific timeframe. Ethical Considerations: Ethical constraints involve ensuring that research is conducted in an ethical manner, considering the well-being of human subjects, animals, and the environment. Adhering to ethical standards can sometimes limit the scope or methods of research. Technical Limitations: Advancements in technology can both enable and limit scientific research. Researchers may face technical constraints due to the unavailability of cutting-edge equipment, software, or other tools necessary for their work. Data Availability: Access to relevant and sufficient data is crucial for many research endeavors. Researchers may encounter constraints in obtaining the necessary data due to privacy concerns, data restrictions, or limitations in data-sharing practices. Regulatory Hurdles: Compliance with various regulations and protocols is essential in scientific research, especially in fields involving human subjects, animals, or potentially hazardous materials. Navigating regulatory processes can be time-consuming and complex. Interdisciplinary Barriers: Some research questions require collaboration across different disciplines. Interdisciplinary research may face challenges due to differences in language, methodologies, or cultures among researchers from various fields. Publication Pressures: The publish-or-perish culture in academia can create pressures on researchers to produce results quickly, potentially compromising the thoroughness of their work. The need for positive results for publication can also lead to publication bias. Peer Review Challenges: The peer review process is essential for ensuring the quality and validity of research findings. However, delays in peer review, bias, or the subjective nature of evaluations can pose challenges for researchers. Global Events and Disruptions: Natural disasters, political instability, pandemics, and other global events can disrupt research activities, impede collaboration, and affect the availability of resources.

The present study aims at shedding some light on self-directed learning as enhanced by adult EFL Master tertiary learners. The research consists in showing learners how independent learning, coupled with self-taking initiatives in the British Literature module. A mixed method was used in the study. To collect data questionnaires ,interview and observation were used. Though constraints, learners showed great talent in preparing their power points related to the different literary currents and movements .The study embraced 48 Civ and Lit stream students who got their assignments, did some research and collected their information to prepare their portfolios. Learners of low self-direction were backed up by the teacher. Observations have shown that the more self-directed learning grows, the better the learning control is structured by the learners themselves who are immersed in the activities as responsible teachers doing their work. Learners tried their chances for self-directness to apply and evaluate their outcome.

Educational psychologists have turned their attention from the study of teachers' behaviour to the study of teachers' thinking, cognition, and knowledge. Educators began to focus on the mental life of their trainees. The researcher believes trainers in Algeria should consider the knowledge and beliefs of their prospective teachers in applying educational psychology. Trainers need to know the content they would teach students to reinforce the know-how of pedagogical knowledge, the learning characteristics of the students they train, and the subject matter. A descriptive qualitative method was used and a psychological needs analysis questionnaire was administered to trainee teachers. The study reinforces the idea that trainers need to focus more on the basic information and conceptual knowledge of the psychology of learning, development, and instruction to apply this knowledge in their clinical teaching experiences, methods, courses, and in their classroom teaching for a long-life achievement.

This comparative literary study aims to explore and analyze the similarities and differences between William Wordsworth's poem "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud", commonly referred to as "The Daffodils", and Dr. Bouazid Tayeb's poem "The Invocation of the Daffodils ". Both poems center on the same subject, the beauty and symbolism of daffodils, but approach the subject from different perspectives and cultural styles. An in-depth analysis of the language, imagery, structure and themes of the two poems is presented. The aim of this study is to shed light on the intertextual dialogue between the two poets and to enrich our understanding of the universal appeal of daffodils as a subject of artistic expression.

For sure, we cannot learn a dictionary by heart, but we can learn the etymology of words and see their development. We can stand on the word as a word and see its formation. Thanks to Lexicology that learners can dissect words into prefixation, suffixation and affixation. The word can occur everywhere but the use of syntax can properly adjust its use. Syntactical relations between words can yield a semantic sense which can serve the register and the pragmatic situation. Lexicology is a vast domain for learners to imbue from; it helps them know the word, its inflection, derivation, plural and genre. The word is dominantly known through the dictionary which helps learners get the right meaning and the correct pronunciation. This is the booklet that enlightens learners’ path in what concerns the domain of vocabulary and lexicology master students need. The author has put in your hand a very beneficial booklet embracing lexical matters through simple lessons followed by practical activities. Learners need to get in touch with their teachers for a more dimensional amplitude of activities.

The United States has had a greater impact on the world, for better or for worse. Its involvement in democracy promotion has attracted such great attention, together with a good deal of skepticism and suspicion. The building blocks of U.S. democracy promotion have come into question after September 11, 2001 where the pursuit of democracy promotion policy historically has served US national self-interests. This paper argues that placing U.S. democratic ideals in a secondary rank to geopolitical concerns along with the tendency to promote US-style democracy resulted in ideological polarization within America and many other countries-a conflict created by the US that is hard to assimilate by the Arabs. Keywords: American, democracy, rest of the world.

This paper examines and reports on an EFL literature course design and instruction. The researcher believed that EFL Literature Circles instruction in practice is an issue worthy of concern. A new teaching plan was designed to motivate students in practice reading literary texts and implementing activities. The plan consisted of assigning learners with various reading activities to literary genres that were done in groups and presented in the classroom. Qualitative and quantitative methods were used in this study. Based on the data obtained from classroom observations, students’ classroom presentations, focus group interviews; students’ responses to a questionnaire and a post-questionnaire of (30 students), the researcher found out that students developed a fairly high degree of motivation towards practising literary reading. The results of the study also indicated that the students were motivated; the course was conducive to students’ language awareness and acquisition and contributed to students’ literary growth. Learning literature through literature circles gave more freedom for learners to take risks, learn by themselves and profit from their mates without resorting to teachers in most cases. Keywords: Fostering motivation, learners’ centeredness, Literature Circle

This study demonstrates the impact of plurilingualism on the students’ metacognition and creative writing. Plurilingualism helps metacognition become an essential part of a successful learning environment; it enables individuals to better manage their cognitive skills. Hence, a questionnaire on plurilingualism was administered to 40 BA students to check whether the stronghold connection with the practice of writing and learners’ prior knowledge through plurilingualism exists or not. The questionnaire analysis and findings have witnessed a growing advantage for plurilingual students to develop metacognitively in literary creative writing in comparison to their mates the monoglots.

This study displays the great heydays of Nelson Mandela, a former President of South Africa, the first fully elected representative of democratic elections. Mandela was born in Transkei, South Africa, in 1918, he was an anti-apartheid activist and leader of the African National Congress. In 1964, the government accused him of committing crimes against apartheid. Imprisoned for 27 years at Robben Island prison and Pollsmoor, Mandela earned the respect of his captors and fellow prisoners. During his incarceration, he was not well treated and was allowed only one 30-minute visit with a single person every year, and could send and receive two letters a year. His reputation as a potent symbol of resistance to apartheid grew steadily. Released from prison in 1990, Mandela received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993and became the President of South Africa in 1994. He wrote many letters in prison that he exchanged with his family members.Mandela is the author of the internationally bestselling autobiography Long Walk to Freedom and Conversations with Myself, a collection of his papers. Mandela gained the heartful attention of a young poet, who paid him tribute, through a memorable poem as thanks for his endurance, perseverance, his heroic deeds, and devotion to his prison life.

This article examines the post-colonial writer' representations of Algeria displacement occurring during ‘The Black Death’ (26 December 1991 to 8 February 2002) through its various forms-, migration, desertion, exile, exodus and escape. Displacement, which has become one of the hot extended issues, psychological, physical and mainly cultural, has turned into a main vibrant issue in the realm of post-colonial literature due to its vast range of consequences on the post-colonial human psyche and societies. The study displays the physical, psychological, and cultural displacement the Algerian citizens encountered during ‘the Black Decade’ through the use of poetry, a genuine agent for change. The poem entitled ‘Memories from the Black Decade’ is fragrant evidence to view life through the poet’s experience of a fluctuating cultural stance, history, and ideology. The poem depicts the Algerian atrocities within a positive aspiration of people groping for a bright future embraced in tolerance and co-existence. The poet aims to show the harsh historical moments Algeria lived to convey to the other world that cultural otherness should be the order of the day and that every disheartened era could turn to peace, cultural tolerance, and constant cooperation.

The present narrative marked the beginning of the Algerian Revolution in its fullest traits. The story took place in North Africa, particularly in Algeria the springboard of the sparkling upheavals around the year 1956 in a small locality overwhelmed by the harsh living conditions and the severe snow fall and frost. The main character was a female figure called Leila who shifted from Algeria to Tunisia and then to Morocco in search of material support that fuelled the Revolution in its prime.The main events revealed the trends to which the The Algerian revolution cobwebbed right from its start to see the neighboring countries share the Algerian their own calamities. The broken hearted male and female figures of the story added another picturesque image to the scene which started with remorse and bitterness of fight and misery to end up with the great departure of the breadwinner-the sole source of life.The moral lessons one could derive from the story while perusing its chain of events would reveal that colonization whatever its shape would only generate lethal commitments and cause the citizens to suffer. Its stains would burn everything for the long term range and its aftermath was but a dead end, a mirage but a dream that even after the independence, its moral traces would fragrantly be witnessed.A sample case was Abdelkader, a former Tunisian husband who sought refuge in France but did not have a chance to make a proper living there and where he finally got cold feet and passed his whole life on a wheel chair, an injured but a bleeding victim whose trails followed him to the grave.

This article examines the challenges experienced by Arabic-speaking students and lecturers in meeting the proposed learning outcomes in English Literature (EL) at a residential university in Algeria. An overview of the history of foreign languages (French and English) in the curricula in Algerian schools and tertiary education institutions has been provided to identify possible contributing factors and underlying causes of the challenges faced in teaching and learning EL today. The authors believe that current practices and attitudes towards foreign language teaching and learning have not developed in a vacuum, but need to be positioned within the context of past events. Three overarching factors that emerged from the empirical dimension of the study that appears to inhibit success in EL studies were inappropriate teaching strategies, inadequate language proficiency and poor student self-efficacy.

Different meetings are planned in university structures to discuss different pedagogical, administrative or scientific questions. Always, the concerned with the meeting are required to free themselves for these different appointments. Also, sometimes, they are forced to give up some tasks such as teaching. In addition, certain points of the topic of discussion require time for reflection and additional data to enable the participants to give meaningful opinions and/or propositions what is not possible when these points are presented during the meeting. Sometimes, for important subjects, other appointments are necessary, a fact that sends the group involved in the meeting to the same constraints. The third problem is related to the persons to invite to the meeting: the question can involve all students and all teachers for example, however, it is not possible to have everyone at the place of the meeting. The organizers will then be faced with the sensitive issue of choice of persons. The chosen ones will propose opinions/suggestions in place of the others which can lead to conflicting situations that disrupt the university or department's operation. Virtual meetings will avoid all these problems and improve the transparency and quality of discussions. In this paper, we focus on asynchronous virtual meetings proposed as a web service that can be integrated into virtual campus structures, university Web sites or e‐learning platforms. It is a way for participants (students, teachers, staff) to discuss for a defined period, one or more topics. These virtual meetings are implemented in our case as contextualized forums to be created by the department administrator or teachers. After that the forum’s members have to give, respectively, their opinions and/or suggestions joined to their respective responses to the discussion. In real-time, specific processes for opinion mining and/or text mining, suggestions give a progressive synthesis of the discussions visible to all participants. We developed a prototype for an e‐department from Tizi Ouzou University where virtual pedagogical meetings are integrated. The prototype was tested with a group of students, administrators and teachers. The results were interesting since, as reported by the participants in the experiment, everyone, with this Information and Communication Technology tool, can “simply” participate in a pedagogical meeting. Keywords: virtual meetings, asynchronous virtual meetings, educational digital workspaces, contextualized forums

The progressive introduction of the License‐Master‐Doctorat system in Algeria has started in 2003. This very system requires qualitative enhancements and changes regarding education, research and evaluation. In order to support the teacher in his pedagogic and scientific activities, the Ministry of Higher Education has initiated the Distance Learning National Project (DLNP) which aims at integrating Information and Communication Technologies in Education (ICTE) through both videoconference and e‐learning. Substantial investments have enabled universities to acquire high‐ performance hardware. As for the human support, technical and pedagogic trainings have been provided, the context in which we have benefited from several pieces of training in e‐learning. Insofar as the integration of ICTE is an iterative process, in perpetual development, that gets better according to its evolution, a decade after launching this DLNP, what about the practice? Was there any generalization of e‐learning in the universities? Were the teachers ready for this change? Is this change adapted and adaptable to the socio‐economic environment of the Algerian university? How to generalize its practice to adapt it to our specific needs? It is to these questions that we will attempt to give answers in this paper using data from an experiment about e‐learning training on information management. We followed the principle of iterative and incremental development approach which is based on the evolution of the training design in stages (pre‐project study, contents design, educational scenarios development, tests and evaluation of the training). The experimentation has underlined strong points (tutorial system, course structuring and presenting, activities, adequacy between the training content and its objective) as well as weak ones (lack of learning autonomy for learners and bad time management, bureaucratic and technical problems). A critical analysis of this experimentation led us to make some concrete proposals for better integration of ICTE. As for the potential human resource (especially students, teachers and administrative managers), it’s necessary to make them aware, inform and train them while always by assisting them. From the technical standpoint, many initiatives are already underway (fitting out all the classrooms with video projectors, and some classrooms have computers for each student), whereas training teachers, especially for collaborative work, is the main aspect to take into account. Insofar as the e‐learning training doesn’t fit our socio‐cultural environment, it could be replaced by cross-training such as blended learning and thus secure a return on DLNP investments.

This article investigates the perceptions and experiences of second language reading and comprehension of Arabic-speaking university students in TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) literature classes. In reflecting students’ observations and experiences in a variety of classroom activities, the study attempts to uncover the constraints and challenges students experience and to suggest ways in which these difficulties could be overcome. The findings of the study reveal that lecturers have a significant role to play in helping students overcome barriers to understanding and interpreting literature. Recommendations for improving comprehension and enjoyment in L2 literature studies include the teaching and modelling of appropriate reading strategies that improve critical and analytical thinking skills; teaching and learning within a collaborative learning environment which fosters the development and exploration of ideas; and improving students’ background knowledge relevant to the text being studied.

This study focuses on the relationship between land degradation and human activities in a semi-desert region, the area of Sefiane in Algeria, whose inhabitants are typically rural farmers and agro-pastoralists depending almost exclusively on their natural environment for subsistence. The study aimed at determining the Sefiane community’s perceptions of the impact of desertification and land degradation on their community and to identify how this affects their way of life and means of survival. The study has shown that the population have a strong desire to be assisted in the development of guidelines for environmental education initiatives that would enable them as a community to deal with desertification and land degradation in an attempt to relieve poverty and develop a more sustainable lifestyle. The proposed environmental education program should not be limited to the development of biophysical resources but must include also the support of societal and personal resources and capacities that are inherent to the community. Keywords: Desertification, land degradation, rural farmers, sustainable development, environmental education.
