Title: Learning and Practicing Idiomatic Expressions Using Multimodal Video Materials.

Abstract (English): This study investigated how multimodal video materials, designed to facilitate the learning of idiomatic expressions through the repetition of sentences containing target items, impact the pronunciation accuracy and speech rate of Japanese EFL learners while they are reproducing the expressions orally. We found that learners improved at both aspects, but that pronunciation accuracy improved more. Responses to an open-ended survey question indicated that participants generally had positive attitudes toward the materials. Participants with positive feelings often left comments about idiom learning and retention, while those with negative attitudes often commented on fluency, which might be related to why speech rate improved less.

Abstract (Japanese): 本研究では、慣用表現を含む文を繰り返し発話することで慣用表現の学習を促すよう設計されたマルチモーダル動画教材 が、日本人英語学習者の慣用表現を口頭で再現する際の発音の正確さ及び発話速度にどのような影響を及ぼすかを調査し た。その結果、両面で改善が見られたものの、発話速度に比べて発音の正確さがより大きく向上したことが分かった。自由記述 式のアンケート結果からは、参加者の多くが教材に対して肯定的な態度を示したことが明らかになった。肯定的な態度を示し た参加者は慣用表現の学習や記憶保持に関するコメントを多く寄せていたのに対し、否定的な意見を持つ参加者の大半は 流ちょうさに関するコメントをしており、これは発話速度の改善が相対的に小さかったという量的分析の結果と関連する可能 性がある。 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
