Research Article | TV and Film as Didactic Tools in Teaching Italian Language and Culture
Abstract
The study reviews existing practices that use TV and film in the teaching and learning of Italian in the University through qualitative meta‑analysis. The studies were selected through keyword collocations, inclusion and exclusion criteria, and time restrictions which yielded to ten articles. Two central themes emerged: the use of TV and film for developing linguistic competence and for improving intercultural communication. Results revealed that TV and film as didactic tools offer relevance in real‑world contexts, snd that success in learning calls for student empowerment and independence. Recom‑
mendations include replication of similar studies and the creation of an open‑access comprehensive database for audiovisual clips in the Italian language.
