The Effect Of Formulaic Expressions Based Instruction Using Authentic Videos On Oral Fluency Enhancement

Résumé: This paper aims to test the effect of implementing formulaic expressions (FEs) based teaching which stimulates classroom discussions based on authentic videos content. The technique focuses on noticing the FEs contained in the videos, discussing their form, meaning and pragmatic usefulness. It aims to explicitly focus on FEs instruction and then test the extent to which learners will incorporate target FEs in their retellings of the videos content to enhance their oral fluency as measured by speech temporal variables. The study found that this method led to incorporating more FEs and thus enhancing oral fluency through increased speech and articulation rate (SR, AR), longer mean length of runs ( MLR),and reduced formula run ratio (FRR).
