| Summary: | Motivation has long been believed to be one of the key factors that havea great impact on success and failure of second/foreign language learning. In an attempt to increase students’ motivation in English speaking activities at Phuong Dong University, the researcher aims to find out the causes of students’ low motivation, theimportance of using information activities to motivate students to speak English, and the suggestions for teachers to apply information gap activities at Phuong Dong University. To find the answers to these questions, an action research was carried out through several steps, using a combination of 3 data collection instruments (questionnaire, observation, pre-tests and post-tests). The results showed that the students’ motivation increased significantly when the intervention was implemented. Hopefully, this study will make a small contribution to the implementation of Information Gap Activities in improving speaking skills for students at Phuong Dong University |
