One of the core subjects that has been considered for all generations is English. Being able to converse in
English is one of the main objectives of the language. Speaking requires the active production of language,
making it a productive talent (Baker, 2003). Cadets are taught appropriate speech during English language
instruction so they can communicate effectively. The cadets' ability to complete the given language activity and
understand the speaking competency constitutes success in speaking English. As a result, the video conference
implementation for the Speaking for Formal Interactions course at Ivet University's third-semester cadets in
Ship Electrical Engineering has gone off without a hitch. Utilizing different techniques, plans of action, and
extra supporting systems like Quizizz, WhatsApp Groups, Zoom Meetings, and others helps with
implementation. Speaking professors and cadets also mostly benefit from video conferences in terms of
efficacy, ease of connection, technology, and cost rather than experiencing any drawbacks In order to collect the
data, a number of approaches, including observation, interviewing, and a questionnaire, were employed to
collect the data. The human instrument, observation sheet, questionnaire, and interview guide were study tools
at the same time. A technique from Miles and Hubberman (1991) was used to analyze the data that had been
gathered. Additionally, the current study used methodological triangulation, which is the use of multiple data-
collection techniques, including observation, interview, and questionnaire. In addition to using video
conferencing for speaking, the attitudes of the lecturers and the cadets regarding using video conferencing for
Speaking for Formal Interactions were also examined. The 15 items in the questionnaire were divided into four
categories based on factors including video conferencing efficacy, accessibility, cost, and technology.
