A Rhetorical-based View To Promote Efl Learners’ Critical Thinking And Problem-solving In Authentic Language



Authors : Kheloufi Nour El Houda .

Abstract

Thinking and problem-solving represent a crucial realm for building information. They require various grounds for knowledge structures. These knowledge structures can be expressed in a real or authentic scope of communication which needs rhetorical reasoning. The latter can be expressed in well-organised universal macrostructures. In the light of this requirement, the article reports on an experimental research which was conducted to investigate the effect of the authentic rhetorical structure of various genres on students‘ thinking and problem-solving skill. In this respect, 120 third-year randomly selected students of English divided into Control and Experimental Groups were involved in the study. A pretest and a post-test were administered to both groups to measure their performance before and after the treatment. The comparison of the results and scores of both tests allowed showing some amelioration in EFL students‘ critical thinking and problem-solving skill via the rhetorical structure of various authentic genres and registers.
