| Abstract This study investigated the effectiveness of using a gamification program to develop first secondary stage students’ EFL speaking skills and increase their motivation towards learning speaking. Participants of the study were two groups of first year secondary students (one experimental and one control). Instruments of the study were an EFL speaking test and a motivation scale towards learning speaking skills. The experimental group was taught based on the gamification program and the control group received regular instruction. Post-test and scale were administered to both groups after the program has been applied. Results showed that experimental group outperformed the control group. This indicated that the program had a good impact on developing EFL speaking skills and increased the motivation of the participating students. Therefore, it is concluded that using gamification is effective in developing EFL speaking skills for secondary stage students and increase their motivation towards learning speaking. Key words: Gamification- EFL Speaking Skills –Motivation. | ||
