Abstract The present study examined the effectiveness of a multimedia instructional approach in enhancing the English speaking skills of ninth-grade students. The study employed a quasi-experimental method using a pre-test–post-test nonequivalent group design. The sample consisted of 80 ninth-grade students selected from a secondary school and divided into an experimental group (40 students) and a control group (40 students). The experimental group was taught through a Multimedia Compilation for English Speaking Skill Promoting (MCESP), while the control group received instruction through the prevailing constructivist activity-based teaching approach. The intervention was conducted over a period of one month comprising 20 instructional sessions. The Analytic Rubrics for Testing Speaking Skill in English (ARTSE) developed by Heera and Arjunan (2012) was used to assess students’ speaking skills before and after the intervention. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential techniques such as paired sample t-test and independent sample t-test. The results revealed that both groups showed improvement in speaking skills; however, the experimental group demonstrated significantly higher gains compared with the control group. The findings indicate that the multimedia instructional approach was more effective than the conventional constructivist approach in enhancing English speaking skills among secondary school students. The study highlights the pedagogical potential of multimedia-based instruction in language classrooms and emphasizes the importance of integrating technology-supported teaching strategies to improve oral communication skills in English.
