摘要:The implementation of oral examination in tertiary level in most courses is an appropriate tool
to determine the students’ ability to communicate ideas in coherent and verbal sentences. This enhances the
speakers’ communicative competence and other conversational skills. Oral examination has been implemented
in the College Department of Franciscan College of the Immaculate Conception (FCIC) for the midterm and
semi-final quarter. Thus, the study determined the level of implementation, the effectiveness of the oral
examination to the communication skills, and the difficulties encountered during the implementation in the
College Department of Franciscan College of the Immaculate Conception, Baybay City, Leyte, Philippines on
the Academic Year 2016-2017. Two separate questionnaires were administered to randomly chosen 21
teachers and 379 college students. The level of the implementation of oral examination was effective to some
students, except those who had problems in dealing with the oral examination. There was a significant
difference among the level of effectiveness on the implementation of oral examination in terms of
communication skills which implied that oral examination was an effective means of enhancing the speaking
skills of some students but not on others. Further, there were difficulties encountered by the teachers and
students during the implementation of oral examination.
