Abstract

This study aimed at investigating students’ perceptions of the effectiveness of using non-traditional techniques to improve oral communication skills. To answer the questions of the study, a 41-item questionnaire was used to measure the perceptions of 83 students who studied the course Oral Communication at An-Najah University in the first semester of the academic year 2011/2012. The students were given the opportunity to use a variety of non-traditional techniques and resources for the sake of improving oral communication skills. The results revealed that the total score of the students’ perceptions of the effectiveness of using non-traditional techniques was very high. Moreover, the results showed no significant differences at α = 0.05 between the means of students’ perceptions due to students’ level, previous linguistic background and cumulative grade-Average in all domains except the total score.
