| description | Kinetic typography is a unique form of typographic art and technique of arranging text
in animation to make the auditory aspects of a language visible. It expresses meaning of
content in a unique and dynamic way. Past studies in this area often centers on the various
applications of kinetic typography, but there are limited studies on the application of
kinetic typography as a visual aid to represent the auditory aspects of English prosody,
particularly in intonation and stress.
This research aims to explore and ascertain the effectiveness of kinetic typography as
a visual learning aid for English intonation and stress. This study hypothesize that kinetic
typography can help ESL students to capture the auditory variations in English intonation
and stress more effectively. To validate the hypothesis, a pre-experimentation design has
been assigned to acoustically analyze the correlation between the visual in kinetic
typography and auditory in English speech. Typography characterization scheme
designed by Wong (1995) has been adapted to match the two and used to develop a
preliminary structure of kinetic typographic visual aid in an experiment. Twenty-five ESL
college students have taken part in the exercise. The t-Test analysis result showed
significant differences in the treatment of kinetic typography in learning English
intonation and stress. However, due to the limitation of the research, many of the statistic
cited and suggestions presented in this thesis are not complete solutions to the question
considered. Rather, they are to be recognized as carefully formulated hypotheses, which
need to be further investigated by other researchers. |
