FERNANDES MONTEIRO, Carla Cristina. The development of oral communicative competence: A systematic review of didactic intervention programs. []. , 33, 2, pp.95-115.   31--2020. ISSN 0871-9187.  https://doi.org/10.21814/rpe.18912.

The present systematic literature review focuses on the effect of pedagogical interventions with children aged 11 to 14 years, with the aim of improving oral communicative competence (OCC). Based on the research questions, articles published between 2009 and 2019 were searched in SCOPUS database. Fulfilling the established selection criteria, full and freely available scientific articles were included; original research or literature review articles that report intervention in the field of oral language, in L1 and L2 classrooms. The studies used at least one standardized instrument. Data analysis was performed through critical reading and selection of results, having only two articles met the inclusion criteria. Both have positive results in the students' oral expression, associated with the use of intervention programs that combine the promotion of variables involved in OCC. Both studies aimed to improve the results in the students' oral expression, but also in students’ reading and writing skills, based on the practice of metacognition and metacommunication strategies in the classroom. Studies focusing on the exercise and evaluation of the OCC are residual, being urgent to carry out research in the field.
