Extensive Viewing involves learners regularly watching films in the L2.  Extensive Viewing helps students improve vocabulary retention, listening comprehension and listening fluency.

The Narrow Viewing approach involves learners regularly watching films on one topic or of one genre in the L2. As students get to hear the same language forms related to a familiar topic or genre, Narrow Viewing helps students improve vocabulary retention, listening comprehension and listening fluency even more.
