This Paper investigates the problem that EFL learners of First Year in English Department at Alassaba College commonly come across issues when pronouncing the th sounds /θ/ and / ð /.It is reported that they frequently substitutes /th/ for the voiceless sound /θ/ and /θ/ for the voiced sound / ð /. Researchers believe that learning the differences between these sounds can help the students of Arabic to be able to pronounce English consonants properly. This is due to the fact that first language can affect learning the second language. Whenever the differences are identified it will be easy for students to learn. The purpose of this study is to explore the interference of mother tongue in pronunciation field that was made by learners of English Department dealing with English sounds/θ/ and / ð. The participants were 30 EFL learners with Arabic background as their mother tongue. To help students overcome their difficulties, comprehensively instructingthe way to pronounce /θ/ and / ð / sounds correctly, using minimal pairs with numerous examples, and creating an inspired learning environment for the students to practice pronunciation are recommended, and recording the students’ pronunciation and analyzed using contrastive analysis.

Electronic management is considered as one of the basic components of the information system, and one of the means that has caused a great stir in our present era, as the need for it has become very urgent and necessary in various fields and sectors, especially in the management of the education sector, as it represents one of the quality standards (the use of technical means in the institution educational), therefore, the aim of this research is to closely identify its concept and explain its importance in the success of managing educational institutions in all their administrative, educational and office aspects. In this research, some basics were presented as an introduction to the topic under study to ensure clear understanding. The research also pointed out some of the challenges and obstacles facing the application of electronic management and proposed solutions to overcome these obstacles.   The researchers used the descriptive approach to suit the research objective. Various sources were reviewed, including research articles, books, and reports

The role of the mother tongue in second language learning has

recently sparked debates and controversies. This study investigates the

use of the first language (L1) in the learning and teaching of English as

a second language (L2) in primary school. The main goal of study is to

determine to what extent and in which instances the first language (L1)

is used and the response of second language educators when they hear

the first language (L1) in their classroom. Most educators feel that the

use of the first language (L1) should be minimized and they feel guilty

if they use it a lot. When challenged, they find it difficult to explain

why. Contrary to the use of the first language (L1), it is generally

assumed that English should be learned through English, just as you

learn your mother tongue using your mother tongue. On the other

hand, the idea that the learner should learn English like a native

speaker or try to 'think in English' is viewed as an inappropriate and

unachievable concept.

:Abstract

Smoking causes about 6 million deaths annually, increases the risk for many diseases and alters hematological parameters. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the negative impact of cigarette smoking on the hematological parameters of healthy smokers in Libya. A total of 145 smokers and 145 non-smokers, with age range 39-45 years, were recruited. Blood samples were collected from each participant and were analysed for complete blood count. The obtained results were statically analysed using descriptive statistics and ANOVA. The mean for all study variables for smokers (except for MCHC) was greater than that for nonsmokers. The coefficient of variation (CV%) showed that the smokers group was more homogeneous for most variables than the non-smokers group, except for BMI and LYMP. The results of ANOVA test showed that only in the case of MCHC the non-smokers had a significantly higher mean (p < 0.05). For other variables, the smokers had significantly higher means (p < 0.05), except for the RBC, where the mean was non-significantly higher compared to the non-smokers. There was no statistically significant effect for the age variable or for the interaction between smoking and age on all variables. In conclusion, the study revealed that cigarette smoking has a significant impact on most haematological parameters; confirming that smoking has severe adverse effects on most haematological parameters
