概要

With increasing access to TV and VCR equpment, teachers have more opportunities to use visual materials such as videos and films in EFL classrooms. Moreover, as English captioned films have become available, they are used by many teachers in the belief that English captioned films will strongly motivate learners to listen and watch attentively. By using closed captioned decoders, the spoken dialogue is simultaneously supplemented and reinforced by the written forms. By adding the captions on the screen, films are shown in three media conditions; sound, pictures and captions. Although numerous articles have also been published on using films in two media; sound and pictures, surprisingly few studies have so far been made at examining the effects of using English captioned films. The purpose of this paper is to find the potential of using English captioned films. The results inferred from an experiment by the author suggest that English captioned films are more effective if they are used over the long term than Japanese captioned films or non-captioned.
