Popis: Background: The use of technologies for developing the oral communicative competence in the English language constitutes an effective tool for the communicative exchange among people supported by the benefits of using the technological devices in the foreign languages students’ initial training process. Objective: To implement didactic procedures for the development of the oral communicative competence in the English language through the efficient use of technological devices. Methodology: A pre-experiment was applied from September 2018 to July 2019 in Foreign Languages Major from José Martí University. The sample was composed of 18 students from first year class. Six professors participated in the research process, who taught Integrated English Practice I and II subjects. Results: The initial diagnosis confirmed the low level of the proposed indicators and an insufficient integration of the technological devices for the development of the oral communicative competence in the English language. The implemented didactic procedures were effective; the results were corroborated in the final stage of the research process. Conclusions: The integration of the technological devices on Integrated English Practice I and II courses contributed to the efficient development of the oral communicative competence in the English language.
