“All of us do not have equal talent, but all of us should have an equal opportunity to develop our talent” – John F. Kennedy. A famous quote by John Kennedy was an encouraging element to decide and work on the needs of Gifted and Talented children. The purpose of this thesis is to explore the approach of English Language gifted and talented children in their schools by the teachers, school administration and society. Its focus was on younger students in their first and second grades in order to find out whether their needs are being accomplished. The research was conducted in the Republic of Macedonia and in order to come to accurate results, we used three instruments: interviews with teachers, questionnaires for parents and class observation. The first instrument, the teachers’ interview, was conducted in thirteen elementary classes, in public and private schools. The second instrument, questionnaires for parents, were questions about their child interest and development but unfortunately, it has to be noted that parents interest as part of this research, was not as expected. Only four parents accepted to answer the questions. The last instrument, the class observation was performed in three classes. This study reveals whether the differentiated teaching methods were used in teaching the English language to young gifted learners; put it in the focus of the educational institutions and teachers the importance of gifted and talented children education. Also the identification of gifted and talented children in an earlier age, on primary classes, what their characteristics are, finding out their needs and how to nurture, give them the opportunity to excel in the realm they are gifted. Hopefully, the gathered data from the study will prove that the main reasons that lead many gifted and talented students to success are the teaching strategies used, the support they get from educational institutions and parents awareness for their child giftedness or talent. Additionally, this research seeks to help teachers follow students’ advancement in the subject from a different point of view.Link for e-copy: https://repository.seeu.edu.mk/sites/thesis/ThesisSharedDocs/MA_111810.pdf Record link: https://library.seeu.edu.mk/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=18447 Copies

Being a primary English school teacher I was given the opportunity to recognize the importance and values of games, gamification, extra - curricular activities and activities in classroom. Most importantly, I learnt that children learn through playing. This research will focus on the importance of using games in order to stimulate learners to talk English without hesitation. The main role of this study is to demonstrate the games that reduce students’ oral communication anxiety in classroom. Moreover, the purpose of this study is to show the positive effects of games and activities in the process of learning as a second language. Pupils learn through games which help them to find and discover new words. Furthermore, through games learners are more engaged as they can practice more and more and it is still meaningful. Moreover, games develop sudents’ memory. In this way they build up their vocabulary, plus they are able to gain self-confidence and reduce anxiety while communicating in the classroom. The study also shows how games stimulate students’ oral communication and reduce oral communication anxiety. In addition, engaging activities and interesting games can develop students’ skills which help them to be independent tomorrow. Keywords: games, activities, anxiety

Duke qenë mësuese e gjuhës angleze, kam pasur mundësinë që t’a dalloj rëndësinë e lojërave dhe aktiviteteve në klasë. Për më shumë, kemi kuptuar qe fëmijët mësojnë përmes lojës. Kjo tezë ka për qëllim rolin e përdorimit të lojërave meqë nxënësit stimulohen të flasin gjuhën angleze pa ngurrim. Roli i këtij studimi është që të demonstrojë lojërat të cilat e zvogëlojnë ankthin e nxënësve gjatë komunikimit në klasë. Për më shumë, qëllimi i këtij studimi është të tregojë anën pozitive të lojërave dhe aktiviteteve gjatë ecurisë së mësimit të gjuhës së huaj. Nxënësit mësojnë përmes lojërave të cilat iu ndihmojnë atyre t’i gjejnë dhe zbulojnë fjalët e reja. Për më shumë, përmes lojërave nxënësit janë më të angazhuar pasiqë ushtrojnë më shumë e më shumë dhe kjo e bën që lojërat të jenë uptimplotë. Plus, lojërat e zhvillojnë kujtesën e nxënësve. Në këtë mënyrë, ata ndërtojnë fjalorin, plus fitojnë etbesim dhe zvogëlojnë ankthin gjatë komunikimit në klasë. Ky studim gjithashtu tregon se si lojërat stimulojnë komunikimin e nxënësve dhe zvogëlojnë ankthin gjatë komunikimit. Për më shumë, aktivitetet angazhuese dhe lojërat interesante mund t’i zhvillojnë shkathtësitë e nxënësve të cilat i ndihmojnë atyre që të bëhen të pavarur në të ardhmën.

The main purpose of this thesis is to investigate the effectiveness of using Audio Visual materials in classroom of teaching English to support English skills development. The research specifically conducts primary school students of intermediate level of English, which need an explicit support by teachers in order to develop general language skills by adding helpful aids to support teaching and learning.

The target participants of this study covered 5th grade English as a Second Language students’ attending public school “Shaban Jashari”. The students were divided in two groups: observed one and experimental one, in total one hundred and three students. The observed group was taught through traditional methods of teaching, only using school English books. Whereas to the experimental group of students helping teaching materials like AV-s was added. Through this experiment the motivation, understanding, attitude and students’ achievement in consideration of English skills development through usage of AV-s was measured. The research was done by three instruments used: teachers’ interviews which led in gaining their attitude toward students’ concentration, motivation and skills development through AV materials usage in classroom, students’ questionnaire which responded about their joy, motivation and help of understanding (SL) with AV-s presence during lessons and finally a students’ test with the purpose of measuring students’ content understanding difference of those who used Av materials and those who did not. The obtained results showed that students with who AV materials were used were highly motivated, concentrated and understood better the content chosen by teacher to be taught.

The effects of class size on teaching and learning have been subjects of a continuous debate for a long time now. Even though there is no strict definition about what a large class is, when talking about large classes in this study we refer to classes with up to forty students in a class. This study aims to investigate the effects of large classes in English teaching and learning in high schools in Kosovo. It explores the challenges that the teachers face when dealing with a large number of students in class. It also investigates the psychological and social effects of large classes toward the learners. In order for the research to take place a quantitative research has been conducted. There are two questionnaires that are have been distributed - the first one has been for the teachers, whereas the second one for the students. The teachers’ questionnaire aims to investigate the effects of large classes on the teaching process and to the teacher. Six teachers from three different cities: Lipjan, Prishtina, and Ferizaj have been part of the study. The questionnaire contained open ended questions and it has been in English language. The students’ questionnaire, on the other hand, has been divided in two parts and it contained linker-type questions. The first part of the questionnaire has been focused on the psychological effects of being part of a large class, whereas the second part has investigated the social effects. This questionnaire has been distributed to 200 students in three different secondary schools of Lipjan, Prishtina, and Ferizaj. The students’ questionnaire has been in Albanian Language since not all of the students in secondary schools of Kosova are fluent in English.

Abstrakt
Efektet e madhësis së klases në mësimdhënje dhe mësimnxënje kanë qenë një debat i vazhdueshëm tash e një kohë. Edhe pse nuk ka një definicion të caktuar se cfarë është një klasë e mbipopulluar, kur flasim për të në këtë hulumtim i referohemi klasëve me numër të nxënësve deri në 40 nxënës në klasë. Ky hulumtim ka për qëllim të hulumtoj efektet që klasët e mbipopulluara kanë në mësimnxënjen dhe mësimdhënjen e gjuhës Angleze në shkollat e mesme të Kosoves. I shqyrton vështirësit që mësimdhënësit i hasin kur punojnë me klasë të mbipopulluara. Në të njejtën kohë i hulumton efektet psikologjike dhe sociale që klasët e mbi populluara kanë tek nxënësit. Në mënyr që të realizohet ky hulumtim është propozuar të mbahet një hulumtim kuantitativ. Ku do te përpilohen dy pyetësorë, ai i mësimdhënësve dhe i mësimnxënësve. Pyetësori i cili do të shpërndahet tek mësimdhënësit ka për qëllim të hulumtoj efektet që klasët e mbipopulluara kanë tek procesi mësimor dhe mësimdhënësi. Për këtë hulumtim jan zgjedhur 6 mësimdhënës të gjuhës Angleze në tri shkolla të mesme, atë të Prishtines, Lipjanit dhe Ferizajit. Pyetësori do të jetë në gjuhen Angleze dhe do të përmbaj pyetje të hapura ku ata mund të shkruajnë rreth përvojes tyre në këtë kontekst. Në anën tjetër, pyetësori për nxënësit do të jetë i ndarë në dy pjesë dhe nxënësit do të përgjigjen me shkallë të pajtueshmërisë në deklarata të ndryshme. Pjesa e parë hulumton efektet psikologjike e të qenurit pjesë e një klase të mbipopulluar, kurse pjesa e dyt shqyrton efektet sociale ose shoqërore të saj. Pyetësori do të shpërndahet tek 200 nxënës në tri shkolla te mesme të Prishtines, Lipjanit dhe Ferizajit. Pyetësori i nxënësve do të përpilohet në gjuhën Shqipe pasiqë jo të gjithë nxënësit e shkollave të mesme e flasin rrjedhshëm gjuhën Angleze.
