- Abstract
- Developing communication skills in mandatory college English classes seems very difficult. Only a few research studies introduce college English curriculums to enhance speaking skills, and almost none of these studies reports positive results of regarding college students’ English speaking ability. However, college students highly expect to improve their communication skills through the general English classes for their future needs. Therefore, this study attempts to suggest an online-integrated college English curriculum to reduce the gap between the program goal and students’ needs for enhancing speaking performance. The data analysis of a survey with 498 college students in A university shows that the students have a very low confidence in speaking and want to improve oral proficiency, but they do not spend their time and efforts on learning English. In addition, the current English courses do not provide sufficient opportunities to develop communicative competence due to many reasons. To overcome the limitation and meet the students’ expectation, this study extended class time for speaking practice and provided more authentic input by integrating online contents and system. As a result, students were able to focus more on speaking practice and to produce a lot more output. On the post-survey after the semester, most of the students in pilot classes showed satisfaction with the new curriculum and perceived the improvement of their speaking ability.
