    (Mouloud Mammeri University, 2022) Bourai Helene; CHebbah Hamid
    The present study is concerned with investigating vocabulary learning motivation through YouTube: the case of M1 EFL students. Through this research, we attempt to highlight the importance of YouTube videos as a useful way for increasing learners’ motivation for positive interaction between students-students and teacher-students’ for a better quality of learning and teaching. This research is centered on two objectives. First, it seeks to raise students’ awareness of how YouTube videos can contribute to improve vocabulary proficiency in and outside the classroom and assist them in their English learning practices. Second, this research attempts to investigate how EFL teachers use YouTube videos to motivate their students to learn vocabulary. To reach these aims, the mixed-methods approach was adopted using both qualitative and quantitative method for collecting and analyzing data. For the collection of data, we opted for the use of two instruments; a questionnaire administrated to 50 M1 students and another questionnaire distributed to 50 teachers of the department of English of MMUTO. The findings of this study have revealed that YouTube videos significantly contribute to the vocabulary development of M1 EFL students. It also showed that teachers are significantly aware and recognize YouTube videos as an effective teaching aid and that YouTube videos significantly contribute to foster M1 EFL students’ motivation.
