Abstract

The present study aimed at developing metalinguistic awareness skills among first year secondary stage students using a program based on integrating competency-based learning and infographics. No previous studies dealt with the integration between competency-based learning and infographics using Edward Anthony's Scheme in which he identified three levels of conceptualization and organization, which he termed approach, method, and technique, so this is the novelty point of the current study. There were 35 participants for the experimental group and the same number for the control group. A skills list of metalinguistic awareness was designed and juried. Then a pre/post test of metalinguistic awareness was juried and administered to the participants of the two groups. The program was designed and administered in the first term of the academic year 2023 and lasted for the entire term with one session per week for the experimental group. Results of the study revealed that the experimental group's post results exceeded its pre results in the post-administration of the metalinguistic awareness test. Furthermore, it could be determined that the proposed program substantially enhanced the stated dependent variable.
