Miêu tả:This study explores the effects of using sitcom videos subtitled in English to help students build their English vocabulary in a group of low-proficiency students from a B1 level course of the English major at a Costa Rican public university. Eight students from this course participated in the investigation. The participants were divided into two subgroups of four students each: the control group which received standard instruction and the experimental group which received the treatment. The results obtained from both the pre-tests and the post-tests indicate that the experimental group showed more substantial improvements in terms of lexical gains. Nevertheless, further evidence is recommended to establish with greater confidence the potential of using sitcom videos subtitled in English as a more effective resource for enhancing students’ vocabulary compared to more traditional approaches to learn lexical items in the English as a Foreign Language classroom.
