Abstract

It is suggested beginning learners with limited abilities of listening and reading cannot effectively capitalize captions because the speed of presentation of the captions is too fast for them to read. Also, it has been indicated beginning learners are not good processors of three information modes, picture, sound and caption. Previous studies have shown captions are often distractive to beginning learners. In the meantime, advanced learners can use the modes in a quite effective way to enhance understanding. Why does this happen? What goes on in their processing? In order to investigate the viewing process, analysis of eye movement is considered to be a reasonable and effective way. In this article, visual literacy models of an advanced learner and a native English speaker in viewing captioned video are introduced with analysis of their eye movement. The triangular pattern of information processing by an advanced EFL learner, the poligonal pattern by a native English speaker, the native speaker's established reading pattern, different fixation time between advanced and beginning learners are introduced with a brief review of related literature.
