This study reports the results of an action-based study conducted in an EFL class to examine whether digital video recordings would contribute to the enhancement of EFL learners’ oral fluency skills. It also investigates the learners’ perceptions of the use of digital video recordings in a speaking class. 10 Turkish EFL learners participated in this study. To determine the impact of digital video recording on EFL learners’ oral performance, the speaking module of IELTS was modified as pre- and post-test. In addition to the analysis of the scores assigned to the learners by two raters using an analytic scale, an analysis of learners’ discourse in pre- and post-test was undertaken to determine whether measures of fluency in learners’ output differ as a result of the video recording. The results suggest that the incorporation of digital video recordings into speaking classes improved the learners’ overall speaking proficiency; however, it did not lead to a significant improvement in learners’ oral fluency. Yet, the analysis of the qualitative data showed that the utilization of digital video recordings may not only bolster the learners’ self-confidence, but also encourage them to take risks with the target language.
