In this way the input acts as a commentary on what is already understood, and so its form can be focused on. The learner is provided with a maximally helpful form-meaning pairing which is most likely to have an impact on the developing inter language system. In addition to this general justification for the role of input, Krashen has drawn attention to the supporting evidence provided by the success of comprehension-driven methodologies in general, and immersion education, in particular. The research was conducted on the hypothesis that an increase in the quantity and quality of the input would produce a similar increase in the quantity and quality of the students' output. Exposure to the authentic language of film was used to increase the quantity and quality of the input. The effects of this exposure were observed by comparing the results of pre and post listening and oral tests done by a student group undergoing the experimental treatment with those of a control group. The results demonstrated that exposure to authentic language alone was beneficial to improve significantly learners' listening skills, while their communicative competence appeared to make only selective gains. A slight significant improvement in the learners' grammatical competence was registered along with a greater lexical range, and a significant increase in the learners' 'internal coherence ' was recorded. This appeared mainly due to greater confidence and the acquisition of formulaic chunks of language or phatic language. This better coherence combined with greater comprehension of spoken text indicated some improvement in the communicative competence component of sociolinguistic competence. External coherence, related to strategic competence was not significantly affected, there being no significant measured improvement in the learners' sensitivity toward the norms of turn taking, or ability to use paraphrasing and compensating strategies. The results of the research were not sufficient to provide the necessary evidence to maintain the Alternative Hypothesis. However they did support the pedagogical value of using film as an effective language- learning tool. The final part of the paper explores the results in the light of language acquisition and offers some suggestion on how to make film viewing a more effective means of instruction.
