| Sumario: |
The purpose of this research is to provide innovative methodological strategies that can be used by the teacher to encourage oral activities to improve fluency and interaction in the classroom. It will be implemented in the English classroom of Corazon de Maria High School in Jinotepe-Carazo in the academic year 2015 with a population of 11 students in the eleventh grade.
Using different strategies and tools such as class observations, interviews with the teacher and students, a survey and classes that were implemented, the research reveals that is a challenge for the students to achieve fluency in English classroom due to some factors that affect their second language such as a lack of vocabulary, speaking practice, and confidence as well as pauses when they speak, pronunciation, fillers, etc.
Our classes were implemented to 11 students from Corazon de Maria High School and consisted of: short presentations, role plays, music, warm up‟s related to speaking, and repetitions of short speech in front of cell phone camera. From the results, we could identify that students were enthusiastic with the use of the technology and they got involved to create an excellent final project providing a good speech in the video, collaborating with each other to accomplish a common goal
This is a qualitative research, because we gathered data from the real environment; we observed the problem situation and gave details of the real context. Also it is exploratory, because we used a video recording as a project that is enjoyable and fun to motivate students to develop their abilities and skill through the creations of the video getting everyone involved.
