Abstract
This chapter investigates the impact of storytelling on second language (L2) vocabulary recall among secondary school students. Increasing learners' command of vocabulary is a crucial factor in learning foreign languages. One way to increase effectiveness of vocabulary learning is through the use of storytelling. The study used a within-subject design, and the participants (n=45) were tested on their vocabulary learning in three conditions: digital storytelling (use of animated videos), storytelling (audio narration only), and explicit vocabulary learning with the use of word list and definitions. Quantitative analyses of students' vocabulary test results revealed both audio-based storytelling and digital storytelling to be effective techniques of learning new words in the L2 classroom.
