“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

Technology is very important in helping the students comprehend, acquire and absorb the things they are being taught. The learning of English language is no exception. This study aims to investigate and analyze ways in which technology, such as: computers, websites, social media, etc. are used for English learning purposes. It also intends to find how the use of technology can affect the learning process positively or negatively. Many things can be integrated inside the classroom facilities and help both the teachers and students make the learning process more interactive, by which the benefits are obvious. However, not everything about technology usage in the English language teaching works perfectly, therefore the possible ways in which the
participants of the teaching process might get distracted are existing. A number of 50 students (25 males, 25 females), aged 12-15 years old and two English teachers from rural parts of Vushtrri were part of the study. . To estimate the objectives mentioned above, qualitative and quantitative data were gathered to find out the pros and cons of using technology in the English language classes. The study was conducted in two primary schools from rural parts of Vushtrri. Quantitative data gathered from the students’ questionnaire helped find out the students’ points of view towards technology being used in their English classes. The questionnaires were distributed to 50 students, aged 12-15 years old. Another instrument used in this research was an experiment containing pre and post technology use test. The pre-tests were distributed to the students prior to using technology. After the pre-test, the target language was exposed to the students via technology. At the end of the experiment, a post-test took place to witness the benefits of using technology inside English classes and the differences in performance due to its integration. Questionnaires with closeended and open-ended questions were distributed to two English teachers from rural parts of Vushtrri to gather qualitative data which investigated their points of view towards technology in English classes. Therefore, the study aimed to find out the improvement in quality of learning English due to technology integration inside schools, as well as the perspectives of the students and teachers towards the implementation of it in English classes. The study showed the advantages of using technology as a facilitator of the English learning process in rural parts of Vushtrri, as well as the obstacles that it brings into classrooms. .. The duration of the study was two weeks and the data collected was followed by the thorough analysis of it by which are defined the advantages and disadvantages of using technology in English classes in rural parts of Vushtrri. Key words: technology, language, advantage, disadvantage, important.

Ky studim ka për qëllim të hulumtojë dhe analizojë mënyrat në të cilat kompjuterët, uebfaqet, rrjetet sociale, etj. mund të përdoren për qëllime të të mësuarit të gjuhës angleze. Gjithashtu ka për qëllim të gjejë se si përdorimi i teknologjisë mund të ndikojë pozitivisht ose negativisht në procesin mësimor. Ka shumë gjëra të cilat mund të integrohen brenda hapsirave klasore dhe t’i ndijmojnë mësuesit e nxënësit për ta bërë procesin mësimor më interaktiv, proces prej të cilit përfitimet janë të dukshme. Megjithatë, jo cdo gjë rreth përdorimit të teknologjisë në të mësuarit e gjuhës angleze funksion në mënyrë të përkryer, prandaj mënyrat e mundshme në të cilat pjesëmarrësit mund të jenë të shpërqëndruar janë ekzistente. Një numër prej 50 nxënësve (25 meshkuj dhe 25 femra) të moshës 12-15 vjeçare si dhe dy arsimtarëve të gjuhës angleze nga
pjesët rurale të Vushtrrisë morën pjesë në studim. Për të vlerësuar objektivat e lartëpërmendura, të dhëna cilësore dhe sasiore u mblodhën për të
gjetur të mirat dhe të këqijat e përdorimit të teknologjisë në orët e gjuhës angleze. Studimi u krye në dy shkolla fillore nga pjesët rurale të Vushtrrisë. Të dhëna sasiore të mbledhura nga pyetësori i nxënësve ndihmuan në të kuptuarit e këndvështrimit të nxënësve krahas përdorimit të
teknologjisë në orët e tyre të gjuhës angleze. Pyetësorët iu shpërndanë 50 nxënësve të moshës 12-15 vjeç. Një tjetër instrument i përdorur në këtë studim ishte një eksperiment me përmbajtje prej një testi para dhe një pas përdorimit të teknologjisë. Para-testet iu shpërndanë nxënësve përpara përdorimit të teknologjisë. Pas para-testit, nxënësve iu shfaqën pjesët gjuhësore të synuara përmes teknologjisë. Në fund të eksperimentit zuri vend një pas test, me qëllim të dëshmimit të përfitimeve që sjellë përdorimi i teknologjisë në orët e gjuhës angleze dhe dallimeve në performancë si pasojë e integrimit të saj. Pyetësorë me pyetje të mbyllura dhe të hapura iu shpërndanë dy arsimtarëve të gjuhës angleze në zonat rurale të Vushtrrisë me qëllim të mbledhjes së të dhënave cilësore të cilat shqyrtuan pikëpamjet e mësimdhësve në lidhje me teknologjinë në orët e gjuhës angleze. Prandaj, qëllimi i studimit është të kuptuarit e përmirësimit të kualitetit të të mësuarit anglisht si pasojë e integrimit të teknologjisë, si dhe perspektivat e nxënësve dhe arsimtarëve krahas implementimit të saj në orët e gjuhës angleze. Studimi shfaq përparësitë e përdorimit të teknologjisë si lehtësues në procesin e të mësuarit anglisht në pjesët rurale të Vushtrrisë, si dhe pengesat që sjell në klasa. Kohëzgjatja e studimit ishte dy javë dhe të dhënat e mbledhura u përcollën nga një analizë e tërësishme e tyre përmes së cilave u definuan përparësitë dhe mangësitë që ka përdorimi i teknologjisë nëpër orët e gjuhës angleze në zonat rurale të Vushtrrisë.

The main purpose of this thesis is to investigate the effectiveness of using Blogging in classroom to support English teaching as a second language (ESL). Due to the technology development and its more and more dominant influence in students’ everyday life the topic about blogging seems to be quite relevant to examine as we believe that the use of blogging can encourage learners’ creativity, interaction, sharing of ideas and comments and motivate both teachers and learners. Therefore, this research reports the investigation of using blogging in ESL with high school students of intermediate level of ESL. The implementation of technology inside second language classes through blogs tends to include students in a cycle of attractive activities, it enhances their English language acquisition and their attitudes, moreover teacher become more facilitators and students become active learners. The participants of this research study cover 10th grade students’ of ESL, attending public school “Frang Bardhi”. The students were shown different models of blogs, as another method teaching for the same topics of English as they normally learn from their school books. Through blogs students were exposed to different activities in ESL, especially to make it easier the communication, understanding and performance of a new language. The aim of this research study by using the mentioned method of teaching is the measure of the students’ different and modern ways of teaching. This thesis aim to find out if students’ concentration rises when internet and technology was used as a form of teaching? Using blogs as another form of helping students’ in understanding rather than by theoretical methods is the main scope issue of the research, and finally finding out of how much students enjoy and change the attitude of teaching through technology tools and social media. The research was realized by conducting three instruments in English classes: a prepared exam by English teacher in order to measure students’ understanding of ESL through blogs, teachers’ interview which helps gaining information about students’ attitude toward blogs effectiveness in students’ concentration and motivation inside the class and a students’ questionnaire which responds about their motivation, attitude and help of understanding (SL) by presence of technology and information in classes. The findings of this research show that blog is an effective tool in teaching and learning a SL, students of this study demonstrate this because they performed better when technology and new methods of teaching were used in English classes rather than being taught only by books. This study reveals that teachers also accepted that changing methods while teaching help students to be more concentrated motivated and understand easier. Finally it was clearly obvious by students’ responses through the questionnaires that they really enjoy changes inside the classes, especially in (ESL) ones, they had totally positive attitudes toward this new method in teaching/learning a SL.
