Primary School Pupils (Dis)interest for the Albanian Language

Great technological advances have brought children into the digital world, replacing with the "world" they carry in their pockets, pens, notebooks and books, but most worryingly, they have also begun to abandon their native language, embracing the foreign language more easily. The aim of this paper is to investigate how much schoolchildren care about writing their language without mistakes, which part of the Albanian language subject they prefer the most and what they want to change to make learning the Albanian language easier. The paper presents hypotheses, arguments and conclusions based on data collected from a survey with pupils of municipal elementary schools of the city of Gostivar (two hundred four pupils). During the research, the direct survey method was used to collect concrete data from the pupils and the descriptive method was used for the theoretical explanation of the problem we are investigating. The results of the research showed that elementary school pupils prefer literature more than language and don’t care enough to write Albanian without mistakes.
