While the professional literature abounds with the values of movies in L2 instructions, little research delivered the role of the grammatical competence in teaching movies. Focus-on-form instructions deserve attention to develop grammatical knowledge in using movies. Focus-on-form can be achieved by directing learners' attention to the target linguistic features or grammatical rules through input-based, explicit instructions, output-based instruction or negative feedback in real contexts. This paper aims to develop pedagogical applications and provide suggestions in teaching movies in the framework of focus-on-form. The researchers applied the focus-on-form instructions in teaching movies by demonstrating the examples of lesson plan, procedures, specific activities etc., using the movie, I t's a Wonderful Life (1946). The pedagogical implications were discussed at the end of the paper. |
