Description This article explores the use of vlogging as a collaborative activity in teaching EFL at a Czech secondary school. The use of vlogging for language teaching has been researched abroad, however, the data on its impact on learner collaboration is still scarce and there exists no data on its use in Czech schools. This article presents the piloting results of my PhD research project at Masaryk university in Brno. The results indicated that vlogging activities provided a break from the daily school routine that many students positively appreciated, developing skills that went beyond traditional language learning, promoting student engagement in the classroom, and other benefits.
