Abstract
Abstract –Learning English as a foreign language (EFL) and computer technology are two fundamental skills for learners majoring computer science and control engineering not only for the use in academic fields but also for the means of communication worldwide. Among language skills, speaking is a core output element that all learners wish to achieve. This research looked into TPACK (Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge) model with an aim to de-sign an online English speaking course for non-English majored learners using VoiceThread as an instrument. Twelve Japanese students participated in the study over 12 weeks. The researcher used internal-service speaking criteria and a self-designed course satisfaction questionnaire based on TPACK model dimensions to collect quantitative data analyzed by R-studio software. Qualitative data were collected and analyzed by content analysis from interviews. The results of this study were discussed in terms of the learners’ progress as well as their satisfaction and the perceptions about using VoiceThread via Zoom and Google Classroom online learning platforms. The TPACK model suggested an effective teaching approach for teachers that can enhance non-native learners’ English speaking performance
