| Abstract | ||
| The study aimed to investigate the effect of using a strategy based on the Voscreen APP on developing preparatory school studentsʼ EFL speaking skills and reducing their speaking anxiety. The participants were 60 students from Kafr Abo-Nejm preparatory school, Abo-Hamad, Sharkia Governorate, Egypt. They were equally divided into two groups, an experimental and a control group. The researcher adopted a quasi-experimental design. To achieve the aim of the research, the researcher designed four instruments: a speaking skills checklist, a pre-post test of speaking skills, a rubric, and a speaking anxiety scale. The experimental group was taught by using the Voscreen application while the control group received regular instruction. The results indicated that the experimental group outperformed the control group due to the use of the assigned strategy. The results of the study revealed that the suggested strategy of using the Voscreen application was effective in developing speaking skills and reducing their speaking anxiety. | ||
