摘要：The ability to communicate fluently and accurately is becoming one of the most important components of language elements in Malaysia. Some of the factors that cause to the inability to speak eloquently are low self-confidence, inadequate practices and less exposure to the language. Henceforth, this action research aimed to discover the potential use of integrating Instagram features and task-based learning activities to develop speaking skills and identify the level of pupils' motivation. In this study, an observation and semi structured oral interview were conducted as methods for data collection. Hence, eight pupils from an urban pre-school in Selangor and low level of English proficiency in a rural primary school in Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia were selected.

It is concluded that incorporating of Instagram and task-based learning activities are aligned with the needs of 21st Century learning and teaching strategies together with the potential to engage and motivate pupils in developing their speaking skills.
