ABSTRACT
This study was carried out to investigate students’ and teachers’
attitudes towards applying group discussion to promote speaking English in
the class of non-major English intermediate students of An Duong Vocational
School. The study was designed to answer the two following questions:
1. How will the group discussion (GD) model under the cooperative
learning instruction in the EFL classroom help the teacher– researcher to
enhance the first year students at An Duong Vocational School to speak
English?
2. What can the researcher learn from implementing the GD model
under the cooperative learning instruction to improve EFL teaching speaking
skill for the students of An Duong Vocational School?
A detailed questionnaire was used as the measuring instrument. Data
for the study is gathered by the survey questionnaires. 100 copies of survey
questionnaires are delivered to the students to learn about their opinions
toward applying group discussion approaches in speaking class. And 7 other
copies are also distributed to teachers of English to find out the difficulties
and achievements when using group discussion to enhance their students’
English speaking in the English class at the same time. The findings show
that students are interested in speaking English in group discussion because
they can feel confident to communicate and share the ideas in groups. And
the findings also indicate some problems teachers of English meet in using
group discussion besides the advantages it brings about. All of them are
presented in the main part of the study.
Basing on such findings, some practical recommendations for the
students, the teachers and the administrators at An Duong Vocational School
were proposed to develop students’ ability to communicate successfully.
It is hoped that this thesis will help the other teachers of English be
aware the usefulness of group discussion techniques and apply it in their
English-speaking teaching.
