Abstract

This study aims to reveal the role of electronic stories in developing language skills among learners in the first stage of primary education, by addressing the nature of electronic stories, their characteristics, objectives, and their relationship with the four language skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The study also included a field aspect in the schools of “Othman Ibn Affan” and “Mohamed Cheibani” in El Mkhadma, Ouargla Province, Algeria, where it presented the value of electronic stories in creating great effectiveness among young learners in the first and second years of primary school as a sample. We adopted the descriptive analytical method, and used an observation grid and a guided interview with teachers and decision-makers to evaluate this.

We concluded that employing electronic stories in the educational process contributes to improving the linguistic performance of learners in the first stage in particular, increases their motivation and interest, and thereby develops their language skills.
