Abstract

This article presents the specific functions of multimedia in the process of English language teaching and learning with the active addition of Post-Method techniques. An experiment was conducted with two groups of learners in order to prove or reject the hypothesis. One group used textbooks throughout the entire time of the experiment whereas the other one used both the textbooks (the first two weeks) and the selected Post-Method techniques (the second two weeks). The statistical elaboration of the results showed that the multimedia tools, alongside the selected Post-Method techniques, delivered better learning and teaching results.
