Abstract

In the era of 5.0, English students are required to have a much larger vocabulary and good vocabulary comprehension to be involved in presentation and discussion activities. However, there is a need for an integrated vocabulary learning resource that combines authentic spoken input, academic vocabulary, pronunciation support, and interactive exercises to support academic speaking. Therefore, this research aims to design and develop an Electronic Vocabulary Book (E-Voock) based on TED Talks through Language Reactor for Academic Speaking. Employing a methodology of research and development with the Borg and Gall, the current research involves the creation of E-Voock with repetitive improvement. The development process included validation by material and media experts to ensure the feasibility of the content, language, and presentation of the e-book. This study collected data through interviews for need analysis, expert validation, and questionnaires from one lecturer and 30 English students for field tests. Meanwhile, the study used the Research and Development (R&D) method from Borg and Gall (1996). The research findings showed that, following the expert validation and field test, E-Voock met the “valid” criteria, indicating that it was ready for implementation to help students improve their vocabulary comprehension for academic speaking. Aside from that, E-Voock provides a nice-looking appearance, selected TED Talks videos with captivating presentations, updated vocabulary material, a list of OPAL (Oxford Phrasal Academic Lexicon), audio pronunciation, and exercises that help students enhance vocabulary comprehension. The current research provides several important recommendations for students to use E-Voock to support their vocabulary learning. English lecturers are recommended to use this app in the learning process of enhancing English vocabulary comprehension for academic speaking.
