Abstract
This paper tries to examine the merits and shortcomings of an internet lecture teaching English conversation through various movie clips. This paper is also intended to help redesign and develop the class through theoretical supplementation and students’ assessments and responses. The class materializes many theories researched in the academic area, including those related to meaningful learning theory, authentic expressions and context, the advantages of movies for repetition and memorization, various subtitle activities. However the class developed as an internet lecture has the difficulty of interaction between the teacher and students and among students themselves. The internet lecture was made in an animation format, so the movie clips as well as the lecture itself adopted animation pictures rather than the original movie scenes, which were originally intended for the taste of the students. It was found, however, that the animation scenes reduced the realistic effect of the movies and students’ interest as well. Students’ responses show that the program has some weak points. The responses also indicate that the program should develop more practical and useful scenes for the English conversation lecture. The lecture, however, has some advantages such as its role play parts and the use of a subtitle changing device.
