Enhancing Second Language Acquisition in 10th Grade Students Through Strategic Use of Audio-Visual Aids

Abstract

This action research study explores the impact of audio-visual aids on second language acquisition among 10th grade students. The study aims to investigate how audio-visual aids can improve cognitive engagement, linguistic skills development, and technological integration in language learning. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining time log observation sheets, surveys, and focus groups. The findings indicate a significant positive effect of audio-visual aids on student engagement, comprehension, and self-confidence. The results suggest that strategic use of audio-visual aids can create a more immersive and effective learning environment, leading to improved student outcomes and increased motivation. The study contributes to the field of language education by highlighting the potential benefits of incorporating audio-visual aids in second language acquisition.
