ABSTRACT

This study examined the effects of different captioned video modes on secondary vocational school students' English oral performance in terms of story-retelling tasks. Two English oral tests were adopted to explore the effects of Chinese Captioned Video Mode, English Captioned Video Mode, and Chinese & English Captioned Video Mode on the participants' English oral fluency, accuracy and completeness. The 108 art students, randomly selected from four parallel classes in a secondary vocational school in Nantong, were divided into three groups and assigned to view the video clip with different caption modes. The findings showed that English Captioned Video Mode exerts the most positive effect on the participants' English oral fluency; Chinese & English Captioned Video Mode is the most conductive to the participants' English oral accuracy while both of them have a more positive effect than Chinese Captioned Video Mode on the participants' English oral completeness in terms of story-retelling tasks.
