Rationale When learning a foreign language, learners need to learn all four skills. It is writing, reading, speaking and listening skills. Thanks to these skills, learners can master and use foreign languages well. Of all four skills, speaking skill can be considered as the one that requires learners to spend the most time learning and practicing.
Most students have difficulty in learning to speak at first. In fact, learning to speak well is one of the keys to help learners discover this interesting language step by step. Among speaking activities, group work is one of the effective methods in teaching speaking because of its advantages. Group work provides students with more opportunities to speak a foreign language and it encourages students to participate creatively.
Moreover, group work is also an opportunity to help develop your English speaking ability. It is well known that the focus of teaching speaking is certainly to improve the students' speaking ability. Therefore, language teaching activities in the classroom should be geared towards maximizing individual language use. This requires teachers not only to strive to create a warm and human classroom atmosphere, but also to provide the opportunity for each student to take turns speaking in as many forms as possible.
Thereby giving appropriate comments and methods to improve and enhance English speaking level for each student. Stemming from the above reasons; “Applying Group Work Techniques When Teaching Speaking Skills to English-Major Sophomores at HPU” was conducted. The researcher hopes that this study will provide learners with a relatively complete and detailed view of how to improve communication skills. Aims of the Study The objects of this study are: 1 The first objective is to study the various aspects of speaking that serve as an overview and the features and characteristics of teaching speaking.
The second purpose is to find out the reality of teaching English communication skills. Findings and discussions were collected from the survey questionnaire conducted at HPU and interviewed teachers. I hope that findings and discussions will help to create a situation where speaking is taught skills at HPU are clear as well as the general situation in our country. The next objective is to study group work techniques in teaching speaking skills, to investigate students and teachers' attitudes towards speaking lessons and group work methods.
The last and most important aim is to suggest some effective group work techniques that can be applied in speaking lessons. Scope of the Study The use of group work can be applied to the four macro skills of the English language. However, such a wide scope extension in this field is not possible due to the limitation of the graduate paper. Furthermore, there are many sources of literature and research while my personal experience is limited and poor.
Therefore, in this graduation paper, I would like to focus on: Understanding the reality of teaching speaking skills and the use of group work in speaking skills. The population participating in the study is about 30 second-year students and teachers from the Faculty of Foreign Languages at HPU. Method of the Study To achieve the main objectives, the researcher consulted a number of ideas from Supervisors and people who are well versed in the subject. All theories have been carefully selected and gathered through reference books and documents on Internet sites.
In addition, a survey was conducted among second year English majors at HPU about their attitudes, assessments of problems, and difficulties 2 they faced when speaking and doing group speaking activities. A survey questionnaire that was designed as the study's key data collection tool for data collection and analysis was used. In addition, the researcher had interviews with two teachers to find out their recognition, attitudes, problem assessment and difficulties they encountered when teaching speaking techniques in groups. Design of the Study The study consists of three main points: Introduction, Development, and Conclusion.
➢ Part I: Introduction shows reasons to choose the study, the aims, scope, methods, and design of the study. ➢ Part II: Development ➢ Part III: Conclusion summarizes the discussed parts in the paper and some suggestions for further study. 3 PART II: DEVELOPMENT CHAPTER I: THEORETICAL BACKGROUND 1. What are Speaking and Speaking Skills? Speaking is the skill that students will be judged most in real life situation.
It is an important part of everyday interaction and most often the first impression of a person is based on his or her ability to speak fluently and comprehensively. However, speaking is in many ways an undervalued skill. This, perhaps, is because we can almost all speak, and so have the low opinion of it. Speaking is often thought of as a popular form of expressions.
Speaking, on the contrary, is a skill which deserves attention a bit as much as literacy skill. Our learners often need to speak with confidence in order to carry out many of their basic transactions. There are a number of definitions of speaking which are listed as follows. According to Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary (2005), speaking is the activity of using voice to say something.
