Group Work as a Means of Getting Students to Participate

This project intended to help shy students to improve their oral production. Activities selected for that purpose were: games, role-plays and interviews that had to be carried out in groups. Students' difficulties expressing their ideas fluently rather than accurately were confirmed by means of a questionnaire, then the activities listed above were piloted and the results of their effectiveness were measured by a teacher observer, by my own field notes and by interviews as well as a final questionnaire applied during and at the end of the piloting stage.
