Abstract

Speaking competence marks an evident proof of success in the process of second language
acquisition. Hence, the syllabus of speaking has become a burgeoning aspect of many English courses.
Realizing the importance of speaking fluency and accuracy in the target language, language professionals and
instructors have never stopped to find practical ways to enhance the learners’ speaking skill. Reflecting upon
the many sessions of teaching English to students at UiTM Kelantan Branch, more often than not, the students
admitted to having fear in speaking lessons as compared to lessons on other skills. They find it difficult to
express their feelings in the target language as their native language stands as a barrier. This has prompted some
language instructors to put much effort into providing various communicative activities to help students
overcome their fear, among which is through role-play activities. In this study, role-plays are compiled in the
form of video recordings and prepared as supplementary material for both teachers and students to be used in
and out of classrooms. The research’s main objective is to determine the relationship between the effectiveness
of role-play videos and students’ speaking performance. 127 respondents of the interim semester at UiTM
Kelantan Branch were selected as the samples for this research. Simple random sampling was used, and
questionnaires were distributed for data collection. The finding shows that the correlation value between the
effectiveness of role play videos and students’ speaking performance is 0.933 (p=0.000 < 0.05). Thus, this
means there is a significant, strong positive relationship between the effectiveness of role play videos and
students’ speaking performance
