چکیده
This paper intends to study the effect of explicit-inductive and explicit-deductive grammar instruction on the acquisition of relative clauses by Persian learners of English. The two intact classes were randomly assigned to one of the treatments, inductive or deductive. Both groups received instruction about English relative clauses using the explicit-inductive (experimental group), or the explicit-deductive (control group). They were administered three similar but not identical tests namely, a pretest, posttest, and a delayed posttest containing Sentence Combining Test and Grammaticality Judgment Test. The findings displayed that both groups significantly increased their overall learning outcomes from the pretest to the posttest, but the experimental group scored significantly higher than the control group. Also, both groups scored consistently scored higher on the GJT than on the SCT, but the experimental group scored significantly higher that the control group on both the SCT and the GJT.
