Abstract

This research article delves into the impact of Flipgrid, a digital application, on students' oral proficiency and overall learning outcomes in EFL settings. Through a thorough analysis of existing research, including studies by Amirulloh, Damayanti, & Citraningrum (2021), Syahrizal & Pamungkas (2021), and Difilippantonio-Pen (2020), this work evaluates Flipgrid's effectiveness, benefits, challenges, and overall influence on oral communication skills. It also investigates students' perceptions and attitudes towards Flipgrid, drawing insights from Lainez's (2022) study at Universidad Estatal de la Península de Santa Elena in Ecuador, to provide a comprehensive and inclusive overview of Flipgrid's role in enhancing oral skills for A2 level students for educative purposes.
