Abstract

In this study, we proposed the development of smart application for English speaking effectively. First, to develop English learning application, we applied the TTS feature to record your own sounds and learning theory repeated listening and speaking that is the basis of English learning. To analyze the effectiveness of the application, we applied a lesson to elementary students for 4 months. In the test result, we found that all students have advanced to the English speaking ability and the test results of the affective factors showed a positive response to most students.

본 연구는 초등학생의 영어 말하기 능력 신장을 위한 스마트 앱의 개발을 목적으로 한다. 영어 학습 앱을 개발하기 위해 말하기 듣기의 기초가 되는 반복말하기와 자신의 소리를 녹음하여 듣는 TTS기능을 적용하였다. 개발된 앱의 효과성을 분석하기 위하여 4개월간 수업에 적용하고 말하기 능력 검사와 정의적 영역을 검사를 하였다. 검사결과, 말하기 능력에 있어 4-6학년 초등학생 모두 능력이 신장된 것을 볼 수 있었다. 정의적 영역에서도 대부분의 학생들이 긍정적인 반응을 보였다.
