Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to present and discuss the potential of different measures of speaking and conversational activity in Second Language teaching from the perspective of Applied Linguistics Research. The author briefly presents the goals and the specificity of the evaluation of speech production from the viewpoint of the teacher, examiner and researcher. He focuses his attention on the two types of oral evaluation: quantitative and qualitative, widely used in studies on first language acquisition and, to a lesser extent, in Second Language Acquisition. He indicates various measures that can help to objectify the process of speech evaluation, and assesses the suitability of individual measures for scientific research. He emphasizes that particular techniques and speech efficiency measures should be selected, taking into account the specific objectives of the study.
