Social constructivism emphasizes the creation of everyday social reality through communication and activity particularly in crisis situations. This theory aligns with the collaborative nature of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in education which enables students to collectively build knowledge through digital platforms. Collaborative learning encompasses various instructional approaches such as cooperative learning and project-based learning in small groups. Furthermore vlogs or video blogs enhance students oral communication skills by providing a platform for them to express themselves clearly and effectively through digital media. This study focuses on the creation of a video blog (vlog) project with an emphasis on fostering a supportive learning environment that integrates technology for elementary-level students. The aim of this research is to assess the effectiveness of combining classroom learning with real-world experiences by evaluating vlog projects based on predetermined criteria. Additionally recognizing the importance of both numerical and descriptive information this study explores the full potential of collaborative vlog initiatives in teaching English as a Foreign Language (EFL) and their impact on students English language skills within the classroom context. The findings of this research indicate that the integration of vlogging projects can significantly improve the speaking skills of secondary school students as reflected in increased post-test scores and positive feedback from students. Vlogging not only enhances language proficiency but also fosters the development of technical skills and teamwork underscoring the value of multimedia and collaborative approaches in language learning. Despite some challenges related to coordination students reported increased participation and self-confidence. These findings suggest that incorporating vlogs into the curriculum can effectively support language development encourage active participation and improve essential communication skills in the context of modern education.
