| dc.description.abstract | The abstract: In English language teaching and learning in general, and English for Specific Purposes in specific, many applied linguists believe that using authentic materials is more effective than the use of non-authentic materials in familiarizing learners with real language use in real life situations. In this study, we aim at studying the situation of using authentic materials in ESP classes at Economics department, M’sila University. For methodology, we have chosen the descriptive and the analytical methods. Thus, an interview has been designed to collect data from ESP teachers and a questionnaire to students. This study has been conducted at the department of Economics at Mohammed Boudiaf University of M’sila. The findings show that teachers make use of non-authentic materials more than the use of authentic materials. Thus, use of authentic materials in ESP classes is not that much existence that enables learners to communicate effectively. Moreover, teachers focus on teaching economics contexts rather than teaching grammar rules. Also, findings show that the use of authentic materials positively affects learners’ interest and motivation | en_US |
