学生对电影作为 ESL 教育媒介的兴趣很高。然而，兴趣不足以在传统的课堂环境中促进理解。需要一种更实用的互动方法来通过电影学习第二语言。通过在线互动练习学习电影中的语言和文化，学生能够更好地理解电影中使用的语言。本文概述了利用在线互动练习和电影开发的一门课程，用于研究语言和文化。该课程融合了多种现代技术，使学生能够在学习中发挥积极作用，并提高学生认为对未来有价值的领域的技能，即听力、阅读和演示技能。自动反馈功能让学生和教师能够不断监控他们的进度。这些技术可以更有效地利用课堂时间，并允许学生更深入地了解电影的内容，尤其是文化方面。通过本课程，学生能够增强自信心和动力继续通过电影学习语言和文化
Student interest in films as a medium for ESL education is high. Interest, however, is not enough to foster understanding in a traditional classroom environment. A more hands-on interactive approach to studying a second language via film is needed. By using online interactive exercises to study the language and culture in film, students are able to gain a better understanding of the language used in the film. This paper outlines a course that was developed using online interactive exercises and film to study language and culture. The course incorporates several modern technologies to allow students to take an active role in their learning and to increase their skills in areas that the students perceive to be of value in the future, namely listening, reading, and presentation skills. Automated feedback functions let the students, as well as the instructors, constantly monitor their progress. These technologies allow a more efficient use of classroom time and permit the students to go into the content of the film – especially the cultural aspects – much more deeply. Through this course, students are able to boost their confidence and their motivation to continue the study of language and culture via films on their own
