Abstract
This study aimed to describe students' perceptions of using PowerPoint presentations to enhance their speaking skills and to explore the specific benefits of this tool in improving their speaking abilities. Using a qualitative method approach., data were collected from students in the English Language Education program at University PGRI Delta Sidoarjo during the 2023/2024 academic year. A Likert Scale Questionnaire was used for structured responses, and an Open-Ended Questionnaire provided detailed insights. Data were analyzed descriptively. Findings revealed that students perceived PowerPoint presentations as highly beneficial for enhancing their speaking skills. PowerPoint helped them structure ideas more clearly and logically, improving speech coherence and organization. Multimedia elements like images and videos made presentations more engaging and visually appealing, maintaining audience interest and supporting spoken content. Additionally, students reported increased confidence due to PowerPoint serving as a visual aid, reducing the need for memorization and decreasing speaking anxiety. The interactive nature of PowerPoint facilitated better communication and audience interaction, further improving speaking abilities. The study highlighted the significant role of PowerPoint in enhancing students' speaking abilities, aiding in structuring ideas, honing delivery techniques, and presenting information succinctly. The incorporation of multimedia elements improved the learning experience, catering to different learning styles and aiding in better retention and understanding of the material. Despite the benefits, there was a lack of comprehensive research on students' views regarding PowerPoint's role in enhancing speaking skills. This study addressed this gap, providing valuable insights into the advantages and challenges of using PowerPoint as an educational tool, underscoring its effectiveness in fostering better communication and comprehension among students.
