Abstract

A Gallery Walk is an action that permits students to examine and show their last work around a room much like artists would show their artistic pieces in a “exhibit.” It is a way that learners can share their group tasks or individual responses to a content in a stress-free way with the confirmation of getting some feedback from their learning network. This study investigated the impact of gallery walk technique on Iranian pre-intermediate EFL students' oral execution. Firstly, 60 homogeneous pre-intermediate students from a private language institute were selected and randomly divided into two equal groups, named as experimental and control group. Then they were pretested through a researcher-made speaking test. The learners in the experimental group received gallery walk technique and the control group continued the ordinary program of the classroom; they did not receive any treatment. After the treatment, the researchers administered the modified version of the mentioned pre-test as the post-test. Independent and Paired Samples T-tests were run to analyze the data. The results of post-test showed that experimental group outperformed the control group. The findings indicated that gallery walk technique improved Iranian pre-intermediate EFL learners' speaking ability.
