Overview

Mixed-methods analysis reveals TBLT improved self-confidence in Japanese EFL students, suggesting a shift towards communicative competence.

Key Points

  • Classroom-based confidence increased significantly due to repeated speaking opportunities and interactive tasks.
  • Closed- and open-ended questionnaires from 93 first-year university students revealed low confidence in spontaneous real-world communication.
  • Qualitative findings suggested a shift in perception of English from a subject to a communicative tool in the classroom context.
  • Effective TBLT tasks require simulating authentic interactions to enhance confidence and language use beyond classroom settings.
