Abstract

This paper aims to investigate the impact of the integration of technological approaches, particularly English online conversation rooms on Google Meet and English chatting, in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) with particular reference to the enhancement of students' English communication skills. A mixed-method approach was adopted with 120 EFL freshmen at Van Lang University (VLU) participating in an experimental study, followed by an interview for some of them. A mixed method of both quantitative and qualitative was employed to collect data. The result is that learning Speaking via the Google Meet platform and English texting can substantially enhance their English communication abilities. In addition,  texting in English and practicing with friends via the online-based app are effective ways to revise their English communication skills during the COVID pandemic with social distancing requirements.
英语聊天室与聊天的结合,提高英语学生的英语沟通能力
本文旨在探讨技术手段的整合,特别是Google Meet上的英语在线聊天室和英语聊天,对英语作为外语(EFL)的影响,特别是对提高学生英语沟通技巧的影响。本文采用混合方法对Van Lang University (VLU) 120名英语新生进行了一项实验性研究,并对其中一些新生进行了访谈。采用定量和定性相结合的方法收集资料。结果是,通过谷歌见面平台和英语短信学习口语可以大大提高他们的英语沟通能力。此外,在新冠肺炎疫情要求保持社交距离的情况下,用英语发短信、通过在线应用与朋友练习是锻炼英语沟通能力的有效方法。
