Abstract | For learners of English as a foreign language (EFL), fluency is one of the most difficult aspects to develop within the speaking skills. The Chilean teaching context has witnessed a gradual shift from the traditional grammar-translation approach to a more communicative one, thereby making it necessary to discover new strategies to develop students' speaking skills. This action research was conducted in a technical university in Chile, and it investigated how the use of the 3/2/1 technique influenced students' speaking fluency. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected for analysis. The results of the study indicate that after the implementation of the 3/2/1 technique, there was a small improvement in the students' speech in terms of words per minute (WPM) and pauses made. The majority of the participants found this technique useful for their development of fluency. (As Provided). |
