| Abstract | ||
| This study aimed at investigating the effect of using audiobook on speaking performance of basic education students in Jordan. To fulfill this purpose, three instruments were constructed: a speaking skills questionnaire to determine the necessary speaking skills for tenth grade/ basic stage students, a pre – post speaking test to assess EFL student speaking performance before and after the study intervention and a rubric for assessing and scoring the EFL speaking skills included in the speaking test. The validity and reliability of the study instruments were established before their application in the study. The quasi-experimental design was adopted. The participants of the study were sixteen students selected from the tenth grade/ basic stage students at The Martyr Pilot Muath Al-Kasasbeh in AL-karak Directorate, Jordan. The experimental group students were taught through the proposed audiobooks activities while the control group students studied through the regular instructional activities. Results revealed that the experimental group students EFL speaking performance was significantly enhanced. It was recommended that audiobook should be used in EFL teaching to enhance speaking skills and other language skills. | ||
