This study examined self-recorded video-speaking tasks of 48 Korean university students in an online English for Special Purposes (ESP) course to determine the task’s contribution to learners’ self-regulation while learning English as a foreign language (EFL). Students selected and researched topics in science and engineering, self-recording three-to-five-minute speaking videos and sharing them via a learning management system (LMS) with unsynchronized question-and-answer (Q&A) peer interaction. Then, they submitted self-reflections on their course experiences. I analyzed speaking videos and self-reflections to examine self-regulation. The results showed positive speaking proficiency but less sufficient pronunciation and grammar than other components (fluency, vocabulary, and content), suggesting that EFL learners in ESP courses require more effort in learning technical terms in their natural spoken language. Also, they intertwined components of Zimmerman and Moylan’s (2009) three-phase self-regulated model into their tasks. They linked subsequent goal-setting to motivation and self-efficiency. The self-recording process provided opportunities to rehearse pronunciation, fluency, and organization; an imagery process helped cognitive memory for fluency and vocabulary. Technology was a good helping tool to support self-taught learning. However, instructors should guide speaking with a camera on or not simply reading from pre-written manuscripts for better self-regulated learning.

The goals of Asia TEFL are to promote scholarship, disseminate information, and facilitate cross-cultural understanding among persons concerned with the teaching and learning of English in Asia. In order to accomplish this, Asia TEFL will pursue the following goals:
1. To link ELT professionals in joint research on issues and concerns regarding English teaching and learning in the Asian context.
2. To publish an academic journal, The Asia TEFL Journal, as an internationally recognized journal in the field of English language teaching.
3. To host conferences and seminars addressing important issues concerning ELT in Asia.
4. To develop proficiency guidelines and assessment methods designed for the needs of the Asian context.
5. To develop programs for Asian learners and teachers of English to build their English language proficiency and cultural understanding and provide them with the skills required to be efficient English teaching professionals.
