  • Evaluated vocabulary learning outcomes and learner perceptions.
  • Assessed the impact on fine psychomotor abilities.
  • Demonstrated feasibility of motor-enriched language instruction for older adults.
  • Supported vocabulary learning in participants.
  • Cautioned against inferring benefits for hand dexterity.

Abstract

Overall, the study indicates that embodied, motor-enriched language instruction is feasible in older adults and may support vocabulary learning, although learner perceptions warrant careful consideration, and benefits for hand dexterity should not be inferred.
