| Abstract | ||
| It is necessary to exploit and include innovative advances into the learning process and use them effectively and creatively to present solutions to daily problems. This research has twofold aims: to assess the effectiveness of using vlogs in developing college students' oral communication skills, and to examine EFL college students’ motivation to learn. The design includes one pre-post experimental group. The group sample consists of 166 students of humanities track enrolled in the preparation year ,department of English language at Imam Abdul-Rahman Bin Faisal University, KSA. They were pretested to determine their oral communication entry-level. They were also taught how to improve their oral communication skills through the sessions of the program. The test was repeated to assess the students' performance progress. Analysis of the results indicated that the use of vlogs had little effect in improving oral communication skills and motivation among EFL PYP learners. | ||
