Using TED Talk Videos for Better Speaking Skills Case of EFL Master Students at Tlemcen University

Abstract

Providing learners with the ability to use English effectively and accurately in genuine communication is, without fail, the major goal of English Language Teaching (ELT). Deep down, becoming a fluent and accurate foreign speaker of English is extremely difficult since it necessitates putting all of one's language knowledge together and demonstrating it instantaneously. This is why, learners are looking for innovative educational approaches to help them improve their speaking skills. TED Talk videos are one of the most popular new learning materials for EFL students in recent years. Then, the primary goal of this research is to determine the effectiveness of this tool in improving students' speaking skills, as well as teachers' beliefs and attitudes toward its usefulness and usage.
