Summary: | This study investigates the causal relationship between the form students who have passed in School-Based Oral
Evaluation (SBOE) with communication apprehension. The participants are 302 of form four male and female students
from the government secondary schools in Putrajaya Federal Territory, Malaysia. The purpose of this study is to
determine the effectiveness of SBOE and its relationship with communication apprehension. This study is an
explanatory sequential mixed method design in which quantitative and qualitative [11] data were collected in
sequential, analyzed separately, and then explained. The quantitative data were collected by using FLCAS, SBOE
results and the qualitative data were collected from the semi-structured interviews with the English teachers. The
quantitative data were analysed by descriptive analysis (SPSS) and the qualitative data were analysed by content
analysis. The results revealed that the students had scored high results in SBOE in the mid-term examination 2017.
The findings from the quantitative and qualitative methods showed that students experience low level of
communication apprehension. High oral performance affects communication apprehension. This study recommends
a new oral-based English curriculum for the secondary schools. |
