Abstract | ||||
The current study investigates the effect of using Numbered Heads Together Strategy on developing English oral communication skills of second year preparatory school students. The research employs a quasi-experimental design. Participants involved in the present study were 60 students .They were assigned at random into two groups: experimental (n=30) and control (n=30). Both groups were taught by the same instructor. However, the experimental group was taught via Numbered Heads Together Strategy. Meanwhile, the control group received the regular type of instruction. Instruments used in this study included: (a) A questionnaire for determining the most important oral communication skills required by the targeted students, and (b) an oral communication test that was used before and after implementing the suggested teaching strategy. T-test results revealed that experimental group students' oral communication skills were significantly developed more than the control's as a result of using Numbered Heads Together Strategy. It could be concluded that Numbered Heads Together Strategy is effective for enhancing English oral communication skills of preparatory school students. | ||||
