چکیده:
To verify the hypotheses , an experiment was designed whereby two groups, the
experimental and control, each consisted of (20) students, who had been chosen randomly
from the first stage in the Department of English , College of Basic Education, University of
Babylon. Both groups were matched in terms of their age and the level of subjects'
achievement in syntax in the first course of the academic year (2008-2009).
The experimental and the control groups were subjected to a pre and post tests. The
test results indicate that there is a significant between the two groups in favor of the
experimental group.
In the light of the results, the researchers have concluded that:
1.The use of classroom interaction in teaching English syntax is more effective in improving
the achievements of Iraqis learners than the traditional way.
2.There is a relationship between teaching through interaction and the use of language in
everyday communication , for the reason that classroom interaction activities are based on
the integration of the grammatical forms with their notions and functions.
3.Teaching through interaction creates the suitable climate, which is similar to the real world,
for learning the foreign language.
4.The less the number of students in the class, the more the opportunities to interact and
negotiate the meaning among students will be.
