A study is described, which compared the benefits of two different training approaches in the use of metaphor-based vocabulary guessing strategies for foreign language learners. A group-based, step-by-step approach was compared with a more autonomous approach. The findings suggest that the type of training received affects the students' ability to use these strategies, but not their tendency to use them. The students who participated in the autonomous approach were significantly more successful at using metaphor-based vocabulary guessing strategies than the students who had received the group training. The difference was particularly marked in terms of their successful use of interactive images. É descrito um estudo que compara os benefícios de duas abordagens diferentes de treinamento no uso de estratégias de adivinhação de vocabulário baseadas em metáforas para estudantes de línguas estrangeiras. Uma abordagem passo-a-passo, de grupo, é comparada com outra, mais autônoma. Os resultados sugerem que o tipo de treinamento recebido afeta a capacidade dos alunos usarem essas estratégias, mas não sua tendência em usá-las. Alunos que participaram da abordagem autônoma foram significativamente melhor sucedidos no uso de estratégias de adivinhação de vocabulário baseadas em metáforas do que os alunos que receberam treinamento em grupo. A diferença foi particularmente acentuada em relação a seu sucesso no uso de imagens interativas

What kind of training is required to help language students use metaphor-based strategies to work out the meaning of new vocabulary?
