Abstract | ||||
This study was conducted to investigate the use of TED talks as a pedagogical technique in teaching English language, and its impact on students’ oral production skills. For this purpose, one intact class (N=34) was chosen as a convenient sample from a secondary school in El-Gharbia Governorate. This Study has been conducted both qualitatively and quantitatively through the use of pre/post oral production tests, a reflection in-action sheet, and a reflection on-action sheet as data collection instruments. These instruments were administered to first year secondary school students. Data were analyzed both qualitatively and quantitatively (using paired-sample t-test). The results revealed that TED Talk videos can provide learners with the communicative elements that allow them to use English to express their ideas freely. Students’ responses to the reflection sheets showed that they appreciated the activities practiced and TED Talks as an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) resource. This offers a glimpse of how useful authentic videos and subtitles are when encouraging students to learn English. | ||||
