ABSTRACT
Speaking skill is considered as one of the most important skills for English
learners when speaking to a long presentation, a conversation with others. Many
forms have been applied to motivate and improve students’ speaking skill, one
of them is online learning. Online learning has been around for a long time, but
it only has become popular recently when it greatly has assisted students' online
learning. This study aims to research on studying speaking skill online for the
2nd year English major students at Hai Phong Management and Technology
University. Preliminary results of the study show that students are interested in
learning online speaking skill and it has also brought many benefits to students
in the learning process, especially to support learning traditional speaking skill.
After the study, some suggestions on applications to support teachers in teaching
and help students in learning is presented. Finally, there is some helpful advice
for students to improve their speaking skills through online learning.

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
1. Rationale
Currently, with the development of society, English is an indispensable
subject for students, especially students at the universities where they are always
taught about the different skills of English. Among them, speaking skill is one of
the most important skills. Moreover, the impact of the global epidemic COVID
19 leading to social isolation, online learning method has also become popular in
universities. They are applied with different forms to support the learning
process for students in addition to traditional learning. Therefore, a combination
of online learning and learning to speak English is really necessary for students.
According to the Fe-Con E Group (Fundamentals of e-learning), the virtual
learning world was noticed in 1999. When combining technology and education,
online learning is brought to life. Many people believe that online learning is an
essential methods, because online classes can bring education to anyone,
wherever you want.
Furthermore, unlike the traditional education, online learning is the
flexibility in time and in place. In the simplest of terms, with online learning, all
you need is your computer or your phone, in connection with the Internet and a
registered online course, then you are free to learn anytime you want, anywhere
you feel comfortable with studying.

CHAPTER 2: LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1. An overview of Online Learning
2.1.1. Definition of Online Learning
There is no Academy of Science or Technology that provides an ‘official’
definition of online learning. It is what people say it is, so I can only give you
my personal definition, which is as follows: "Online learning is any form of
learning conducted partly or wholly over the Internet."
There are a number of definitions for online learning found within the
literature. One of the earliest, Khan (1997) defined online learning as the
delivery of instruction to a remote audience using the Web as an intermediary.
Carliner (1999) defined online learning as educational material that is presented
via a computer. However, as the practice has grown in scope, the definition
seems to get less precise. Oblinger and Oblinger (2005) avoid the issue by
simply describing online learning as “wholly online learning”.
Some prefer to focus on tying direct connections between distance
education practices prior to the implementation of the web and specific
technologies now available. In essence, they focus on how technology has
changed the delivery of the instruction rather than the how technology might
change the instruction itself. (Rekkedal, et al. 2003; Volery and Lord, 2000). As
online learning has become more pervasive, the learning theories around it have
evolved. Most authors (Benson, 2002; Carliner, 2004; Conrad, 2002, Ally, 2004)
define online learning in terms of the access to learning experiences but also on
the potential for flexibility and participant interaction.
There are also documents for that: "online learning is education that takes
place over the Internet. It is often referred to as “elearning” among other terms."
However, online learning is just one type of “distance learning” the umbrella
term for any learning that takes place across distance and not in a traditional
classroom. Distance learning has a long history and there are several types
available today, including:
4
CORRESPONDENCE COURSES:
Conducted through regular mail
with little interaction.
TELECOURSES:
Where content is delivered via
radio or television broadcast
TYPES OF “DISTANCE
LEARNING”
CD-ROM COURSES:
Where the student interacts with
static computer content.
ONLINE LEARNING:
Internet-based courses offered synchronously
and/or asynchronously.
MOBILE LEARNING:
By means of devices such as
cellular phones, PDAs and digital
audio players (iPods, MP3 players).
Nowadays, the most popular
approach is online learning.
According
to
the
Sloan
Consortium, online enrollments
continue to grow at rates faster than
for the broader student population
and institutes of higher education
expect the rate of growth to
continue increasing. Some of the
key findings:
Over 1.9 million students were
studying online in the fall of
2003.
Schools expect the number of
online students to grow to over 2.6
million by the fall of 2004.
Schools
expect
online
enrollment growth to accelerate —
the expected average growth rate
for online students for 2004 is
24.8%, up from 19.8% in 2003.
The majority of all schools
(53.6%) agree that online education
is critical to their longterm strategy.
5
A majority of academic leaders believe that online learning quality is
already equal to or superior to facetoface instruction. (The “no significant
difference” phenomenon).
Thus, online learning is similar to elearning, is another form of teaching. It
is a distance learning training system where the progressive Internet innovation
is used to encourage the instructor to teach the intrigued students. They oversee
student instructor cooperation's and convey course materials online. The
students don't have to go for their classes physically but just signing on to their
system gives them enough motivations to think about.
2.1.2 Online classes versus traditional classes
With the age of technology everything has become available. With the
massive development of technology, a new way of education emerged beside the
traditional classes, which is the online classes. Both prepare students for their
career choice and give the same result. Nowadays, we have two choices of
attending classes, either online or traditional. Some people prefer the online
classes, while others still find the traditional classes are much more appropriate
to attend. The comparison between the online classes and traditional classes has
many similarities and differences.
2.1.2.1. The similarities between online classes and traditional classes
Online classes and traditional classes have certain similarities as below:
Both have instructors for guiding the students and giving them the
directions that should be followed to qualify for success.
Also, they both need reference materials. Resources are very helpful when
it comes to learning. Whether studying online classes or traditional classes, the
6
teacher will require specific resources for students to use for improving their
knowledge and helping them to earn high grades.
Quizzes, tests, assignments and group presentation are required with
studying online classes as well as traditional classes. Assignments are a huge
part of the learning experience. Teachers usually evaluate the students’
performance depending on these requirements regardless of which class method
is selected.
Both online learning and traditional learning require a great amount of
work.
Giving and receiving feedback is important in both environments.
The challenges and rewards are the same in each environment.
Both require that students manage their time wisely.
Both online and the traditional classes will provide the educational
requirements needed to obtain a college degree and opportunities in the work
field.
"While some studies show online students slightly outperforming their
traditional classroom counterparts, most indicate that there is little difference in
overall performance between the two formats, according to the American
Sociology Association". (Morgan, 2016)

In addition to the similarities, online classes and traditional classes also
differ significantly, they shown in the table below:
