Audiovisuals in FL Classroom

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to analyze the aspects of audiovisuals use in FL classroom. It is a well-known fact that that audiovisuals are part of our everyday life for many decades, and lately they have been included in the learning process within the communicative approach, under the pressure of a greater importance of pragmatic and authentic communication. There are many benefits coming from their use in the FL classrooms in the neurolinguistic aspect. Recently, many suggestions have been provided on the implementation of audiovisual materials in the foreign language class, some special criteria teachers should take into consideration during the process, but also concrete examples of such materials used in FL classroom generally, and particularly in that of Italian language.
