Supporting second language reading with picture note-taking

Published: 26 April 2014 Publication History

Abstract

Second language reading is difficult when people are with limited second language proficiency. In this paper, we proposed picture note-taking, displaying semantic-related pictures as notes of keywords in an article to support second language reading comprehension. We prototyped an online reading tool called PicRemarkable and evaluated its effects on English reading with Chinese native speakers. Our result showed that participants performed better at the delay comprehension test when using picture note-taking as support than using Chinese definitions of words as support.
