Abdallah Ahmed Baniabdelrahman

Abstract
This quasi-experimental study aimed to examine the effect of using shared online oral diaries on the EFL Saudi First year university students’ speaking proficiency. It used one male and one female EFL Saudi First year university students classroom sections to represent the experimental group and one male and one female classroom sections to represent the control group. An equivalent speaking proficiency test, developed by the researcher, was applied on the control and the experimental groups before the study started to ensure their equivalence; and was also used as a post-test. The results of the post-test revealed significant differences between the mean scores of the experimental group and the mean scores of the control group in favor of the experimental group.
