摘要:Learning could not be thought of as unrelated to cognitive processes and cognitive
processes are not unrelated to affective ones; thus, the current study tried to
empirically examine the influence of Emotion Based Language Instruction (EBLI)
in fostering teaching oral skills to EFL learners. An IELTS test was utilized to
measure the progress of both control and experimental groups at the beginning of
the research and also at the end. The content of the material chosen to be taught for
experimental group was selectively written based on the Metric of Emotioncy
designed by Pishghadam (2016). The differences in scores of pre and posttest of
IELTS were statistically calculated to observe the effect of EBLI. The results
revealed a significant change in speaking skill in experimental group and a change
in listening skill, though it was not statistically significant. The results of the
current investigation can increase the knowledge on applying EBLI in teaching
foreign/second languages.
