| Abstract | ||
| The present study aims at identifying the impact of peer observation strategies on improving Iraqi EFL teachers' performance. To achieve this aim, the researcher has used the Non-randomized Control Group Pre-test Post-test Design with pre and post administration of an observation checklist. The sample of the study consists of (60) male and female Iraqi EFL teachers at General Directorate of Education at AL-Qadissiya Governorate. According to the above mentioned design, the sample has been randomly distributed into two groups: the experimental and the control group, each with 30 teachers. The researcher has used a pre-observation checklist to observe the Iraqi EFL teachers' performance of both groups. Then the researcher taught the peer observation strategies to the experimental group teachers who applied the peer observation strategies under the supervision of the researcher in order to improve their performance. The control group, on the other hand, received no instruction and has been submitted to the traditional mode of supervision. The experiment lasted for five weeks. After that the researcher used a post observation checklist to check the improvement in the EFL teachers' performance at both groups. The results revealed that there were statistically significant differences between the post administrations of the observation checklist to both groups in favor of the experimental one in respect to their teaching performance. Based on those results, the researcher concluded that peer observation strategies should be employed in order to improve the Iraqi EFL teachers' Performance . | ||
