THE INFLUENCE OF TECHNOLOGY-BASED TEACHING METHODS ON SPEAKING ABILITY IN ENGLISH LEARNING IN SECONDARY SCHOOLS

Abstract

This research examines the influence of technology-based teaching methods on speaking abilities in English language learning in secondary schools. Literature study is used as the main approach in analyzing previous research findings. The results of the literature study show that the use of technology in learning English can increase students' learning motivation, enable the development of more active speaking skills, and support students' learning independence. Additionally, technology facilitates measuring and monitoring student progress more efficiently. However, challenges such as uneven availability of technology access and data security issues also need to be addressed. This research aims to provide practical guidance for teachers and educational policy makers in integrating technology in English language learning and to increase understanding of the role of technology in education.
