Description
1. INTRODUCTION When a student is asked to write an essay of 200 words in length, he/she could easily come up with one that is longer. However, when the student is asked to speak for two to three minutes on a topic in a group discussion or in front of the class, he/she may face some difficulties in expressing his/her opinions. The student may feel anxious to express his/her views verbally in contrast to writing an essay whereby he/she can eloquently express his/her views on an assigned topic. Some students' apprehension towards speaking activities in class may pose a problem for them as some course assessments require them to verbally express their opinions as for example in the MUET (Malaysian University English Test) speaking examination and a course in public speaking.
