Role of Technology in the Enhancement of English Language Speaking Skills of High School Students of Gojal, Gilgit Baltistan

English language, the ‘lingua franca’ of the globalized world necessitates (Jenkins, 2009) even countries where it is not spoken as the first language to institute it as a second language (Caine 2008). Pakistan is also amongst one of the countries where English language is given much importance and is being taught as a compulsory subject from Early Childhood Development (ECD) to graduation level. Literature (Ahmed, 2011; Noreen, Ahmed & Esmail, 2015) says that in Pakistani English as a Second Language (ESL) classrooms, reading and writing are the two main skills that are focused on more, while the two other language sub-skills: speaking and listening are ignored. Experiential data, specifically relating to the rural and far-flung areas of Pakistan, like Gojal, traditional method teaching and learning practices are also prevalent there: due to which the learners of (English language) EL lack in speaking skills.

The data was collected in two phases. In the first phase, semi-structured-interviews were used to collect data from English language teachers. Two Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) were also conducted to obtain data from the students. In the second phase, a mixture of open-ended, 4 and 5 point rating scale questionnaire was developed based on the emerging themes of the first phase and was administered to 116 high school ESL learners. The study findings revealed that technology is perceived as a tool that supports students in the enhancement of their speaking skills. Technologies such as television,
