| Résumé : | Teleconferencing refers to the transmission of educational content and instruction through telecommunication technology. This method allows educators to conduct classes, lectures, discussions, and other educational activities remotely, without the need for physical presence in a traditional classroom setting. Teleconferencing has emerged as a technology in modern education, enabling remote communication and collaboration among students and teachers. The aim of this research paper is to examine the benefits of teleconferencing over traditional teaching approaches guided by opinions, attitudes and preferences of both teachers and the second-year EFL students at Dr. Moulay Tahar University of Saïda. In order to gather data about teachers’ and students’ attitudes/opinions towards the use of teleconferencing in teaching/learning, as well as recording information about preferences of each, qualitative and quantitative approaches were used by employing three research instruments: a questionnaire for students, a questionnaire for teachers, and an online observation. The discussions of the results obtained revealed that teachers and students have diffrents opinions: some consider teleconferencing as pivotal in modern teaching for it helps in facilitating communication between participants and builds a positive educational environment, while others consider traditional teaching as always the way to get better teaching and learning. |
