الملخص

تهدف هذه الدراسة إلى استكشاف تصورات طلاب اللغة الإنجليزية كلغة أجنبية من الأكراد حول استخدام تطبيق دولينجو لاكتساب اللغة الإنجليزية. جُمعت البيانات باستخدام المنهج الكمي، وتحديدًا من خلال استبيان. شارك في الدراسة 70 طالبًا من طلاب اللغة الإنجليزية كلغة أجنبية من الأكراد في جامعة عكري للعلوم التطبيقية. يتمثل الهدف الرئيسي للدراسة في معرفة تصورات طلاب اللغة الإنجليزية كلغة أجنبية من الأكراد حول استخدام تطبيق دولينجو لتعلم اللغة الإنجليزية، بالإضافة إلى نقاط قوته وضعفه. أشارت النتائج إلى أن معظم المشاركين لديهم مواقف إيجابية تجاه تطبيق دولينجو، لا سيما فيما يتعلق بتحسين المفردات ومهارات القراءة. ومع ذلك، أشار الطلاب إلى بعض القيود، خاصة في مهارات الكتابة وشرح القواعد. باختصار، خلصت الدراسة إلى أن دولينجو أداة فعالة، ولكن لتحقيق تنمية لغوية أفضل، يجب استخدامه جنبًا إلى جنب مع أساليب التدريس التقليدية.
