Abstract

Precisely selected films in the target language lend themselves to developing foreign language learners’ various skills and competences, in particular their linguistic, social, psychological and intercultural ones in an integrated way (Pegrum, 2008). Various exercises, which are based on the imagination and creativity of foreign language learners, can be attached to films. Fantasy and creativity can facilitate learners to reduce their language-related anxiety and also they are fundamental factors of enhancing language learning motivation and attitudes. The goal of this presentation is to reveal the findings of a smallscale study on students’ perceptions regarding using films and different related tasks in their foreign language development lessons.
