his study aimed at investigating the effectiveness of a CALL program in developing listening and reading comprehension skills of first year secondary stage students. To accomplish this purpose, the researcher constructed and validated a listening comprehension test and a reading comprehension test. The participants were two classes (60 students) from first year secondary stage students at Ahmed Shelbia Secondary School for Girls, Manzala Directorate. They were randomly selected and equally divided into an experimental group and a control group. Both groups were pre-tested. After ensuring their equivalence, the experimental group students were taught reading and listening using the CALL program, meanwhile the control group students were taught according to the teaching procedures in the Teacher's Guide assigned by the Ministry of Education. After teaching the program, both groups were posttested using the same instruments utilized in the pre-testing. Findings of the study indicated significant differences between the mean scores of the experimental group and those of the control group on the post listening comprehension test and post reading comprehension test in favour of the experimental group.

T he study aimed at investigating the effect of a webquestbased program (WQBP) on developing Egyptian secondary school students' self-regulation. The participants of the study were 20 students of a governmental secondary school in the town of Temay AlAmdid , Mansoura, Egypt. They were divided onto two groups: experimental group = No 20 and the control group No = 20.The study sough to answer one main question: what is the effect of a proposed webquest-based program on students' self-regulation? Two other sub-questions were posed as well: what are the features of the proposed WQBP that can enhance Ss' self-regulation? And Does the WQBP affect the secondary stage students' selfregulation?The study hypothesized that there would be a significant relationship between the WQBP and the Ss' SR. also there would be a statistically significant difference between the mean score of the experimental group and the control group on the post application of the SRQ in favor of the experimental group. A Self-Regulation Questionnaire (by Pintrich et al's, 1991) was used to measure students' self-regulation. The results were statistically treated using the SPSS package, 12th edition. The results indicated that the WQBP was effective in developing students' self-regulation. The study recommends using webquest in teaching EFL skills and subskills in addition to including it in teachers' professional development programs.
