| dc.description.abstract | This study investigates the use of audio description (AD) and metaphors in enhancing foreign language learning. Data collection involved a convenience sample of 25 students who provided metaphorical descriptions of their AD experiences through a single-item questionnaire. The data analysis employed content analysis to categorize and interpret these metaphors. The findings underscore metaphors' cognitive and emotional benefits in making abstract concepts tangible, thereby enhancing the language learning process. The examination of the metaphors elucidates how students harness metaphorical constructs to explicate various facets of change within their English language learning trajectory. Encouragingly, affirmative responses are discernible within the metaphors, particularly pertaining to themes such as knowledge production, creativity, value, the transmission of knowledge, wisdom, and animacy. The utilization of metaphor, as delineated within this discourse, fosters an ongoing process of scholarly inquiry and comprehension. Future research should continue exploring these tools to further validate and refine their application in diverse educational settings. | |
