Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of a program based on Synchronous Computer Mediated Communication (SCMC) in enhancing EFL 3rd year preparatory students’ speaking and writing skills and their motivation. The participants of the study consisted of (48) third-year preparatory students at Narmar Language School, Giza Directorate. Instruments of the study were an EFL speaking skills checklist, an EFL writing skills checklist, an EFL speaking scoring rubric, an EFL writing scoring rubric, an EFL pre and post speaking test, an EFL pre and post writing test, an EFL speaking and writing Motivation scale, a SCMC Motivation Questionnaire towards Speaking Writing and a program based on SCMC. In this study, pre post-test was used with two groups (Experimental and control, 24 students each). Results of the study revealed that the study group posttests score in both speaking and writing were significantly better than their pretests. Also, their Motivation toward speaking and writing improved considerably. The study group’s gains in these productive skills and the enhancement in their attitude have been attributed to using the SCMC-based program designed and implemented by the researcher.
