Abstract:

Speaking is an essential tool for communicating. In the

classroom, improving the speaking abilities of students has always been a
concern. In the fast developing 21st century various innovative technologies are
being introduced to teach speaking skill in the classrooms. Technology is the
vehicle to get access with this modernized world. More than the process of
communication, trade and transactions,

today technology is widely used in

educational sectors.

Keywords:

Modern technologies, Internet, communicative skill, method.

However, today's world requires that the goal of teaching speaking should

improve students' communicative skills, because, only in that way, students can

express themselves and learn how to follow the social and cultural rules
appropriate in each communicative circumstance. In the preliminary stage,
teachers used tape recorders as a technological device to instruct the students,
which later evolved as communication laboratory. The integration of technology
into language teaching which was started in the early 1960s and 1970s, assisted
teachers to teach second language learners how to speak in the best way
possible. Every day teachers are getting access to some new technologies, which
join hand with English teaching. As the conventional teaching method such as
the chalk and talk method seems to be outdated, the modern technologies can be
used as a supplement to the classroom teaching method to have a lively
atmosphere in the classroom. New technologies in language learning by multiple
intelligence and mixed abilities replace with old methods of teaching.

Technology can stimulate the playfulness of learners and immerse them in a
variety of scenarios. Technology gives learners a chance to engage in self-
directed actions, opportunities for self-paced interactions, privacy, and a safe
environment in which errors get corrected and specific feedback is given.
Feedback by a machine offers additional value by its ability to track mistakes
and link the student immediately to exercises that focus on specific errors. When

Modern technologies available in education today are: Communication lab,
Speech recognition software, Internet, TELL (Technology Enhanced Language
Learning), Pod casting, Quick Link Pen, Quicktionary. Communication labs are
available to develop speaking skills. By incorporating suitable software through
computers the students will play it again and again with their own interest and
try to improve their speaking skills, which are most essential in this modernized
IT world [3, p.473]. The usage of headphones in the lab makes the students to
have interest over the subject and induces them to repeat again and again
instead of feeling boredom. Speech recognition software also helps improving
the students speaking, this can convert spoken words to machine-readable
input. The device recognizes the accuracy of what was read and then provides a
positive reinforcement like “You sound great!” or gives the user an opportunity
to try again, in this way the learner can figure if he is reading well or not. As the
user’s skill improves, the technology reads less material so that the learner reads
more. This software also evaluates and provides scores of grammar,
pronunciation, comprehension and provided with the correct forms, for
examples if a student mispronounces a word, the learning tool can immediately
spot it and help correct it. Internet is a commonly acknowledged

term and widely used by people throughout the world. Students now use
Internet in the class to learn English. Online teaching inside the classroom seems
to be interesting and makes the students to find out the suitable materials for
them. Internet is a commonly acknowledged term and widely used by people
throughout the world. Students now use Internet in the class to learn English.
Online teaching inside the classroom seems to be interesting and makes the
students to find out the suitable materials for them [4, p. 281]. TELL is the use of
computer technology including hardware, software and the internet to enhance
teaching and learning of languages. It allows the students to get access with all
the technologies available for the enhancement of English learning. Students are
allowed to use online dictionaries, chat, and to view the various happenings
around the world. Podcasts can be uploaded or downloaded, this audio help the
learner familiarize with the target language and teachers can use them as useful
audio material that can be used in class for activities like discussions, besides, in
the web. Podcast undoubtedly

help learners in speaking. Pod casting is the integration of audio files where we
can

feed our own materials and ply it inside and outside of the classroom. Students
use ipods to hear their favorite music files. In the same way they have their
education in the form of entertainment. Podcasting allows students to use their
tech-based entertainment systems for educational purposes. Using technology in
learning English language has become a real necessity nowadays. This paper has
reviewed briefly how technology can be utilized in developing the speaking skill
of the learners. Different methods for using technology in improving speaking
skill were discussed thoroughly.
