dc.description.abstractThis research project investigated the impact of the ChatGPT Web Tool on enhancing the speaking skills of CEFR A2 level learners at the University of Guayaquil, Ecuador, addressing the challenge of integrating emerging technologies into English language learning. The study aimed to analyze learners' attitudes and perceptions towards using ChatGPT, provide evidence-based recommendations for its implementation as a teaching tool, and assess its effectiveness in improving speaking proficiency within this educational context. Employing a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative analyses through pre-tests, post-tests, surveys, and interviews, the study found significant improvements in speaking skills, particularly fluency and pronunciation. It revealed positive learner attitudes towards ChatGPT's interactive and engaging capabilities. Although implementing a guide for integrating ChatGPT was initially considered, the focus shifted towards highlighting the importance of such innovative tools in teaching English. The conclusions emphasize ChatGPT's potential as a transformative educational technology, recommending its systematic inclusion in language teaching practices.
