摘要

全球化和我们所处的信息与知识时代要求高等教育培养学生的英语口语能力，以充分应对学术和劳动方面的挑战，同时利用技术提供的各种资源的优势。YouGlish 是一款在线口语词典，其特点可用于培养学生的英语口语能力。本研究旨在确定使用 YouGlish 对英语口语能力在流利程度、语法充分性、发音、交际互动和词汇等子技能方面的影响。研究采用准实验设计，以秘鲁一所国立大学的 19 名学生为对照组和 19 名学生为实验组进行抽样调查。在数据收集方面，对学生的英语口语能力进行了前测和后测，还使用了一份关于 YouGlish 使用感受的问卷。算术平均数表明，与入学测试和毕业测试相比，使用 YouGlish 提高了 35.25 分。结论是大学生的英语口语能力有所提高。

The impact of YouGlish on English speaking competency in higher education

Globalization and the information and knowledge age in which we find ourselves demands that Higher Education develops English speaking competency in their students to respond adequately to academic and labor challenges, taking advantage of the virtues of the variety of resources offered by technology. YouGlish is an online oral dictionary whose characteristics can be leveraged for the development of English-speaking competency. This study aims to determine the impact of the use of YouGlish on English speaking competency on their sub-skills of fluency, grammatical adequacy, pronunciation, communicative interaction, and vocabulary. The research was of quasi experimental design and was carried out with a sample of 19 students in the Control Group and 19 students in the Experimental Group from a national university in Peru. For data collection, a pre-test and a post-test were applied regarding the English-speaking competency, and a questionnaire of perception on the use of YouGlish was also used. The arithmetic mean indicates that it improved by 35.25 points using YouGlish when comparing the entrance and exit tests. Concluding with an increase in the English-Speaking competency among university students.

期刊介绍： JOTSE is an international Journal aiming at publishing interdisciplinary research within the university education framework and it is especially focused on the fields of Technology and Science. JOTSE serves as an international forum of reference for Engineering education. Teaching innovation oriented, the journal will be issued twice per year (every 6 months) and will include original works, research and projects dealing with the new learning methodologies and new learning supporting tools related to the wide range of disciplines the Engineering studies and profession involve. In addition, JOTSE will also issue special numbers on more technological themes from the different areas of general interest in the industrial world, which may be used as practical cases in classroom tuition and practice. Thereby, getting the working world reality closer to the learning at University. Among other areas of interest, our Journal will be focused on: 1. Education 2.General Science (Physics, Chemistry, Maths,…) 3.Telecommunications 4.Electricity and Electronics 5.Industrial Computing (Digital, Analogic, Robotics, Ergonomics) 6.Aerospatial (aircraft design and building, engines, materials) 7. Automotive (automotive materials, automobile emissions).
