Description

The goal of this study is to find a method for increasing the motivation of children with lower reading skills and of improving their comprehension. To this end, the effectiveness of the groupuscule learning method involving imitation was examined in the context of a national language class. An experimental group and a control group, each containing a child with weak reading and comprehension skills, were set up. The results of the control group and those of the experimental group on the pre and post tests were compared, as well as the transformation in the learners' activity during class. The learner in the experimental group displayed higher motivation and improved comprehension. A comparison of the pre and post test results of the two groups showed that the results of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group. A survey of the learners and teachers involved in the experiment indicated that both categories were aware of the effectiveness of the learning method.
