Abstract
1-1 Introduction:
The study was carried out with the help of a questionnaire directed to a
group of university teachers( 15 ) and a group of learners,( 56 ) 3 rd year college
students of the Dept. of English ,College of Basic Education, University of
Diyala and (35) randomly selected school teachers of English as a foreign
Language in Iraq Primary and high school.
The results of the questionnaire show that 98% of the interviewed
students and teachers don't have any simple former knowledge of the term
"Sustainable development". There is an urgent need to educate learners and
teachers of English language in Iraq with the term "Sustainable development" in
order to bring a qualitative improvement and building capacity for effective and
sustainably develop English Language teaching. This could be achieved by
adopting the sustainable development procedures strategies recommended in the
study to make English learning and teaching Language in Iraqi schools and
universities more effective and successful.
1-Finding out whether there's any correlation between SD and English language
Learning
There are some obstacles that face teaching and learning in general and
Education and Teaching for sustainable development in particular. Among these
obstacles Hales (2008) highlights the following: the unawareness and vagueness
of sustainable education among educational staff due to shortage of training
towards gaining skills in constructivist teaching and learning, the big size
classes, limited on-line and e-learning courses, more course work and less for
research and non-governmental societies little support for universities research
programmes.
English teaching in Iraq has not yet developed although English is widely
offered starting from primary level of school up to the high school level.
Students start learning English, in Iraq, at third stage of primary school, i.e. at
the age of eight up to the sixth stag of secondary school, i.e. at the age of
eighteen. In spite of the ten years of learning English as a foreign language at
governmental schools, students can hardly communicate their thoughts and ideas
or understand spoken English. Hence the investment is high, but the effect is low
in the Education of English as a foreign language.
