Thus represents lack of empirical evidence about the efficiency of group work activities for the development of the oral interaction in the Algerian context. In addition to this, few detailed descriptions of the patterns of oral interaction in EFL classes are known The objective of this study is to explore the effect of group work on EFL learners’ oral interaction developmentand how the use of group work activities influences the development of oral interaction inside and outside classroom situations
