The Effect of Blended Learning on the Primary Stage EFL Students’ Reading Comprehension Achievement in Libya

“…Similarly, Ghazizadeh and Fatemipour (2017), Oweis (2018), Hijazi and AlNatour (2020), Sharma and Sharma (2020) confirmed the current results. Recent studies from 2022, such as Apsari and Parmawati (2022), Fardin et al (2022), Mohamed (2022), andMiraei Mohammadi et al (2022), all validated the findings where statistically significant differences existed favouring blended learning over traditional face-to-face learning. The study findings were different from the other studies in that gender do not interact differently toward blended learning strategies.…”

“…The use of blended learning to improve EFL reading comprehension achievement would be extremely beneficial to Libyan students (Belazi & Ganpathy, 2021). Face-to-face teaching is one of the most critical instruments for obtaining foreign language input, and using blended learning to improve EFL achievement would be extremely beneficial to Libyan students (Apsari & Parmawati, 2022). unluckily, old methods of teaching English to EFL students are still in use in the Libyan educational system, and many Libyan teachers are ignorant of this relatively recent trend in language teaching (Belazi & Ganapathy, 2021).…”

According to research, using a blended learning technique alongside or in addition to traditional classroom training can improve students' information retention (Zulhamdi et al, 2022) Given the aforementioned concerns, as well as the novelty of blended learning in the Libyan educational system, it is worthwhile to put the new concept to the test in terms of its efficacy in improving Libyan EFL students' overall English success.…”
