In the methodology part of the study, a questionnaire was applied via Google Forms with the participation of 20 teachers from private universities and schools. In the second stage of the methodology, 20 teachers were interviewed and 5 of them were included in the study as a sample. According to the results of the questionnaire and interview, 35% of the teachers participating in the study have stated that they have teaching burnout, but this burnout is a beneficial factor for both their academic and professional lives. Another significant result is that the majority of the teachers feel energetic and that they would still want to do the teaching profession if they were born again.","PeriodicalId":360663,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Social Sciences & Educational Studies","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128457499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current study investigates the perceptions of Kurdish EFL learners regarding utilising authentic reading materials in the classroom. The study was an attempt to discover participants’ general attitudes towards adopting more authentic reading materials in their classrooms, and to see whether there was any significant difference between the attitudes of the participants. A total of 128 EFL learners participated in the study of which 52 were from Sulaimani Polytechnic University, and 76 from University of Halabja. A questionnaire consisting of 37 items was adopted to collect the data for the present study. Descriptive analysis was used to explore EFL learners’ perceptions of English authentic materials, and t-test analysis was used to find out any significant differences between the Polytechnic University and Halabja University EFL learners. The results of the study revealed that Kurdish EFL learners have a positive attitude towards using more authentic reading materials in the classroom at both Universities. The participants also believed that authentic reading materials would introduce them to samples of natural language. They prefer reading more authentic materials and as a result of this, they can improve their language proficiency. Finally, the results also indicated that Sulaimani polytechnic university EFL students had a more responsive and positive attitude towards using authentic reading materials in their classrooms.","PeriodicalId":360663,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Social Sciences & Educational Studies","volume":"9 5:1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129140724","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Digital libraries offer rich content and ample digital aids that student may get benefit while reading independently. These aids can help, encourage, and motivate children because of the digital additions that traditional books lack. They may be able to make reading books more entertaining for children by using bright animations and introducing them to print and pictures in an enjoyable way. Accordingly, the present research aims to examine the attitudes of private primary schools’ students towards an extensive reading program in digital library. A qualitative research methodology was selected to reveal the perceptions and preferences of the students. The collected data analysed through thematic analysis. The research participants are 10 students from grade 5 and 6 in a private primary school. This study might be useful for instructors to see how students react extensive reading program in digital library and technological features embedded to it, as well as curriculum designers to think about the impact of digital libraries on students' reading habit development.","PeriodicalId":360663,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Social Sciences & Educational Studies","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124061177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
