AU - El-Sakka, Samah Mohammed Fahim AB - The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of using Collaborative Strategic Reading Strategy (CSRS) on developing the speaking skills of EFL university students. The design of the study was a pre-post quasi experimental design. Instrument was a pre-post speaking test. Participants were fifty EFL freshman university students divided into two equivalent groups: control group (25 students), and experimental one (25 students). The two groups were pre-tested in the dependent variable (speaking skills). The experiment lasted for three months. During this period, the experimental group was taught using the collaborative strategic reading strategy while the control group was taught using the regular method. At the end of the experiment, the two groups were post tested. Significant differences were found between the mean scores of the experimental and the control group students’ in favor of the experimental group. Also, significant differences were found between the mean scores of the pre and posttest of experimental group students’ in favor of the post test. It was concluded that collaborative strategic reading strategy developed the speaking skills of EFL freshman university students.
