dc.description.abstractAbstract The present dissertation aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the use of podcasts in developing learners' pronunciation and to explore students' and teachers' viewpoints regarding the issue. Pronunciation is considered one of the main obstacles to learning English as a second language as pronunciation mistakes will lead to a misunderstanding that can affect communication breakdown. This study was conducted through a qualitative descriptive method to answer the research questions and confirm the hypothesis, which assumes that the use of podcasts can enhance pronunciation skills. To confirm the validity of the hypothesis, questionnaires were administered to a sample of fifteen second-year EFL students, and an interview with six oral expression teachers at the Department of English at Abbas Laghrour University during the academic year 2023/2024. The findings claimed that podcasts are effective instruments to increase pronunciation. In light of these findings, the hypothesis was successfully confirmed, so that the use of podcasts develops pronunciation. As a consequence, podcasts are highly recommended to be used in EFL students' classrooms. keywords: pronunciation, podcasts, EFL students, questionnaire, interview
