| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study was to find out the factors that affect the development of students' speaking skill in classroom interaction. To do this, Methods of Teaching, Interpersonal Relations and Affective Elements were the variables selected. To obtain the aim, three different instruments i.e. classroom observation, questionnaires and interview methods were used. Three different Grade 11 sections from different schools were observed. Grade 11 English teachers in those schools were asked to give their opinion for the questionnaires. The English teachers of the observed sections and 5 students from each observed section were interviewed. The resu lts of the study show: Teachers did not balance accuracy and fluency work in classroom interaction. They focused more on accuracy work. Two teachers were more direct than indirect in their influence in the classroom. One was found more indirect. 71.67% and 71 .1 % of the classroom talk was done by two teachers whereas one teacher did 48.33% of the talk. Organising group work has not become practical by the majority of the teachers yet. There was an awareness by both teachers and students that lack of preparation from the teacher's side can lead to unfavourable teacher-student relation. Asking few students only has been found discouraging for the majority. 66.67% of the students who were interviewed responded that they have been deprived of getting the opportunity to exercise oral activities in English in their school years up to now.What the three interviewed teachers believe about speaking activities theoretically and what is seen in the two classrooms practically was contradicting. The teacher who graduated recently has relatively shown a better communicative approach which helped students to use the language in oral activities Based on the findings conclusions have been reached and recommendations are given to minimize the problem and develop students' skill that requires to communicate orally | en_US |
