The study looked at the effects of using digital stories on the understanding of spoken English by a group of 6-year-old Spanish learners in Madrid. A quasi-experimental research study was launched in six state schools in Madrid. Findings indicated that the experimental group outperformed the control group in the final test administered. These results raise interesting issues related to the use of technology in the context of foreign language learning.

This could be a great article to include on the foreign language page. It supports the use of DS to teach foreign language.
