| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research investigated the effects of shadowing (repeat model audio right after it is heard) and elicited imitation (repeat the whole sentence after a three-second pause) on the complexity, accuracy and fluency of spontaneous speech of lower intermediate level English learners. The results indicate that fluency and sentence length improved significantly while the accuracy remained the same. This means that oral practices for beginning level learners do not necessarily have to be communicative; practices like these without much interaction can improve fluency and complexity.
