This study investigated the superiority of computer-based glosses in comparison with traditional glosses. 80 participants were divided into two groups(computer-based gloss group and traditional gloss group).Computerbased group received instruction through computer. i.e. new words were presented with their pictures and L1 translations and traditional group received instruction on the paper only with L1 translation. The results (pre and post-tests) were analyzed using a t- test. The results indicated the superiority of computer-based gloss group over paper-based gloss ones.
