The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of two multimedia CALL programs on vocabulary acquisition. Samples of the study were 86 intermediate level English as a second language (ESL) students. They were randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups. Students in group one viewed a program with Motion Graphics and text. Students in group two viewed a program that had Still Graphics and text. Their task was to study ten names of hand and power tools. Both groups took the pretest, viewed the video on the tools, and had an immediate posttest and a two-week delayed posttest. Both Motion Graphics and Still Graphics were found to be effective in vocabulary learning in this study. Learning occurred significantly in both groups. However, students in the Motion Graphics group performed significantly better than students in the Still Graphics group in the delayed posttest. Lastly, further research in the use of various graphic formats in a CALL environment is very much needed. 2005 thesis https://ir.upsi.edu.my/detailsg.php?det=558 https://ir.upsi.edu.my/detailsg.php?det=558 text eng N/A openAccess Masters Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris Fakulti Bahasa dan Komunikasi N/A
