Dalat Without students’ participation, the communicative approach and learner-centered approach which are dominant in foreign language teaching and learning in Vietnam cannot come into play as much as we wish In addition, improving students’ participation means encouraging students to bring both mind and heart into service, welcoming their power of originality, ability of autonomy, and responsibility in language learning However, in reality, many students have not actively participated in EFL classes though they seem to be aware of the importance and benefits of their participation in EFL classes, which is accounted for the rationale of the study The study is conducted with the main instrument of questionnaires in combination with interviews and experimental teaching The data for the study is processed by the SPSS, a useful software for statistics The study is involved with 678 students of all classes of Grade 10 and Grade 11, and English teachers at TPHS Through the study, three important points relevant to students’ participation, namely factors affecting students’ participation, measures to improve students’ participation, and benefits of students’ participation in language teaching and learning are examined and analysed The findings reveal that many students have not participated in EFL classes because of some factors such as lack of vocabulary, poor English competence, poor background knowledge and so on Additionally, the study recommends some viable measures such as “Merry” teacher, careful lesson plan with variety of activities, diversity iv of classroom responses to improve students’ participation in EFL classes at TPHS TABLE OF CONTENTS Pages Chapter I INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background to the study 1.2 Statement of purpose 1.3 Research questions 1.4 Significance of the study 1.5 Definition and abbreviation of terms 1.6 Assumptions 1.7 Delimitations and Limitations 1.8 Organisation of the study 10 Chapter II 11 LITERATURE REVIEW 2.1 Approaches to language teaching 11 2.1.1 Communicative approach 11 2.1.2 Learner-centered approach 14 2.2 Classroom interaction 16 2.3 Students’ participation in EFL classes 18 2.3.1 Participation 18 2.3.2 Factors affecting students’ participation 21 2.3.2.1 Factors relating to students v 21 -
