Developing listening and speaking skills through song and ICT-based tasks.

The aim of this didactic proposal is to explore the use of English songs and ICT as strategies for the development of meaningful tasks which strengthen listening and speaking skills in tenth and eleventh graders. For this purpose, sixty-one students provided information through which the need to work on listening and speaking exercises based on musical genres and themes of their preferences was identified. It offers an alternative to improve students’ low performance in these skills, especially in the oral proficiency, which has not been prioritized in the curricula unlike reading and writing, as well as students’ unfavorable perception of English learning. Therefore, the Task-based methodological framework is adapted to present an interactive web page in which students can comprehend, produce, and interact in the target language throughout five sessions in a dynamic and motivating way.
