Abstract

This study aims to describe the integration of technology within the Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) approach in English speaking instruction and to examine how this integrated implementation contributes to the improvement of students' speaking skills at SMA Negeri 01 Anjongan. This study employed a descriptive qualitative method involving purposively selected students from Class XI A. Data were collected through classroom observations and semi-structured interviews with students. The findings indicate that integrating technology into the CTL approach enhances speaking instruction by providing meaningful contextual learning experiences, increasing student engagement, and encouraging active participation in speaking activities. The integration also creates a more authentic and interactive learning environment, which enhances students' confidence and motivation to communicate in English. These findings suggest that the integration of technology within the CTL approach is an effective instructional strategy for developing students' speaking skills at the secondary school level, particularly in non-urban educational settings. This study is expected to serve as a reference for English teachers in designing more interactive, meaningful, and contextually relevant speaking instruction.
