| Description | By connecting auditory and visual components, focusing on current topics, and using everyday language, youtubers can play an important role in the foreign language learning as mediators of their language knowledge and culture. In our contribution, we will present the results of a didactic experiment that we carried out during the second semester of 2021/2022 with 62 students of Spanish, French and Russian in foreign language courses at the Faculty of Economics and Administration from Masaryk University in Brno, Czech Republic. The research was conducted both quantitatively and qualitatively. As our students are part of the target group of youtubers, we asked ourselves the question if/how/for what purposes students follow them and set the goal to further integrate the use of these video performances into their learning. Through collaboration, students were also guided to observe the similarities between the two languages used and to reflect on the process and outcomes of their learning. |
