Effectiveness of a Proposed Program Integrating MALL & Reciprocal Listening to Podcasts in Fostering EFL Faculty of Biotechnology Students’ HOTS, Vocabulary Acquisition and Speaking Fluency
The aim of the current study was to develop Egyptian first year EFL Faculty of Biotechnology students’ higher order thinking skills (HOTS), vocabulary acquisition and speaking fluency through a proposed program integrating mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) and reciprocal listening to podcasts. The study followed the pretest/ posttest one experimental group design. The study group consisted of forty students; they were taught by the researcher throughout the fall semester of the academic year 2021- 2022 according to the proposed program. The study tools included a pre- /post- higher order thinking skills test, a pre-/post vocabulary acquisition test, a pre- post speaking fluency test, a rubric for measuring the study participants' HOTS and a speaking fluency rubric. Results indicated that there were statistically significant differences between the study group students' pre-tests and post-tests scores in favour of the post- tests scores. Therefore, it was concluded that the proposed program was effective in developing the study group students' HOTS, vocabulary and oral fluency.
