| dc.description.abstract | I suggest rewriting the abstract like this ‘The main objective of this study was to investigate the impact of using synchronous TikTok videos to improve the speaking skills of the students who study the course English for the Workplace at an-Najah National University. Students were asked to create two videos by using lip-syncing. To achieve this objective, a quasi-experimental approach was used with two groups: experimental and control. The study population consisted of all students who studied the course English at the Workplace at An-Najah National University in the summer course 2023 /2024. On the other hand, the study sample involved (54) male and female students who were randomly distributed into two groups ( controlled (26) and experimental (28) who were at their BA level studying at the Faculty of Economics and all of them had finished more than 90 hours of their studying program. To achieve the objectives of the study, pre and post-speaking skills tests were constructed as data collection tools after reviewing some previous research on the topic. To ensure the validity of the tests, they were rated by five specialists in the field of testing and evaluation at Al-Najah National University and Al-Quds Open University. Their suggestions and comments were taken into consideration to modify and improve the content and the wording of the tests by omitting, adding, or rephrasing items that needed modification. The tests' reliability was calculated by using the Chronapach Alpha test which was (0.589) for the students’ responses. Results of the study indicated that there is a relatively slight impact of using synchronous tiktok videos on improving EFL students’ speaking skills at An-Najah National University. Furthermore, the results revealed that there are statistically significant differences in the impact of using synchronous TikTok videos on improving students’ English-speaking skills in the English for the Workplace course at An-Najah National University on the pre-and post-evaluation of the experimental group. The significant value was (0.000) which is less than (0.05). The differences were in favor of the post-evaluation. The improvement in scores was (1.80357) which was in favor of the post-evaluation. In light of the findings, the researcher recommended using synchronous TikTok videos in the to improve students’ speaking skills and presented some recommendations for EFL teachers, researchers, and other stakeholders. | |
