英文摘要 | The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of movie clips with auxiliary subtitling in combination with the provision of advance organizers on listening comprehension for college students. Seventy-nine freshmen and sophomores participate in this research. Forty-eight of these participants have passed the Intermediate Level (reading & listening) of the GEPT (General English Proficiency Test), whereas others have not. All participants are randomly assigned into one of the two different groups: the group with English caption only (or Group A), and the group with both Chinese and English subtitles (Group B). In the experiment, both groups first receive a Chinese translation and explanation of the vocabulary and phrases, and then they are shown two 20-minute clips of The Perfect Match. After the movie, the participants are asked first to take a series of comprehension tests, second, to fill out questionnaires, and third, to give written feedback. The findings are as follows: (1) group B performs significantly better than group A in the comprehension tests; (2) no significant difference is found between the participants who have and have not passed the GEPT in group B; (3) 94.94% of the participants believe that the advance organizers facilitate their comprehension, although the speed of the dialogue and captions is considered fast for them. The results reveal two reminders for teachers: (1) it is important for teachers to consider the proficiency levels of students before deciding on teaching material; (2) advance organizers are an effective and efficient tool for English teachers. |
