Abstract: The efficacy of Technology-Enhanced Speaking Development (TESD) for enhancing second language (L2) speaking abilities was examined in this study. To determine the digital resources and instructional activities utilized in TESD, 58 research publications were examined. The study discovered 19 distinct learning activities that are employed in TESD and can be divided into four categories: guiding the use of speaking methods, facilitating speaking practice in spoken interactions, supporting speaking abilities in activities, and enhancing speaking knowledge. The results of the examined literature demonstrated that learner perception and academic achievement are typically improved by TESD interventions. Furthermore, a framework known as the Cognitive Schemata for Speaking Skills was put forth to direct the creation and execution of TESD initiatives. The study also noted difficulties with student motivation, instructor preparation, and access, and it suggests future research paths to deal with these problems.

Keywords: L2 speaking, TESD, digital resources, learning activities, and cognitive schema paradigm
