The expected responses were based on a 5-point vocabulary knowledge scale ranging
in level from 1 to 5 (see Figure 2 above). To keep the study confidential, the students were not
informed about the purpose of the study till they finished with the post-tests and they were not
allowed to use their dictionaries during test administration. Besides, before the administration
of the study the students were reminded that participation was voluntary and there would be
no extra marks or rewards. The collection of all surveys of Group A and B took one class
hour – 45 minutes. The watching of the episodes also lasted nearly 40 minutes for each group.
Afterwards, the participants were given the VKS and were asked to answer the items on it.
The expected responses were placed on a five-point scale indicated above.
