dc.description.abstractThis present study investigates third year LMD students' anxiety especially when it isrelated to the oral presentation. It also examines the factors responsible of their apprehension. Besides, it suggests the use of the PowerPoint report presentation as an alternative tool in order to minimize their stress and improve their oral performance. Since this current variable is a psychological issue, we resort to the use of questionnaires to collect the relevant data. Thus, our study adopted a qualitative research method of which two questionnaires have been administered to both teachers and learners, and the students were supplied with an additional questionnaire which is the Foreign Language classroom anxiety scale (FLCAS) to assess their anxiety level. Concerning the findings, it revealed that the fear of negative evaluation of the teachers and the peers have been the significant source of the learners' anxiety. However, when it is related to their oral presentation apprehension, it derives mostly from their negative self-esteem because they find difficulties in explaining and organizing the intricate ideas that contribute to confusion, frustration, communication breakdowns, which in turn, lead them to be misunderstood. In addition to that, it exhibited the positive impact of the PowerPoint software on the students' anxiety level and crucially on their oral performance. On the basis of these findings, pedagogical implications are suggested to students, instructors, and the academic administrations in order to facilitate the learners' learning process by reducing their anxiety that was proved to have detrimental effects on their performance and achievements.ar
