Abstract
This study investigates the effectiveness of communicative language teaching in enhancing interaction in language classrooms. The research examines two groups of learners: one group received instruction through communicative language teaching methods, while the other was taught using traditional grammar-based approaches. The results indicate that the group exposed to communicative methods demonstrated significantly higher levels of interaction and engagement during lessons. These findings suggest that incorporating communicative techniques in language teaching can improve learner participation and foster a more interactive learning environment. This research contributes to the understanding of effective language teaching methodologies and highlights the need for further exploration in this area.
