Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of a game-based approach in developing speaking competence among architecture students within the framework of English for Specific Purposes (ESP). While many ESP courses remain focused on grammar and translation, students in technical disciplines often lack opportunities to practice spoken English in meaningful professional contexts. To address this gap, the present research integrates gamification techniques into ESP speaking instruction, aiming to enhance learners’ motivation, engagement, and oral communication skills.
