English Language Teaching, 2025, vol. 18, issue 1, 56

Abstract: This study investigates the effects of visual annotation and collaborative strategies on junior high students' language learning, contrasting these innovative approaches with traditional teaching methods. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, the research reveals that students who engage with visual and collaborative techniques experience a significant enhancement in their language comprehension and application. This is evidenced by a remarkable increase in test scores from 47% to 78% over a two-year period. The findings advocate for a pedagogical shift towards more interactive and visually driven instructional methods, emphasizing the potential of these strategies to improve both linguistic proficiency and student engagement. Furthermore, the research suggests that integrating visual and collaborative tools into language education could substantially benefit learning outcomes. Ultimately, this study recommends a reevaluation of current instructional practices to incorporate these dynamic methods, highlighting the importance of adapting teaching approaches to foster a more effective and engaging learning environment for all students.
