Abstract

Vocabulary has been at the pinnacle of language learning since vocabulary mastery helps in communicating language. However, learning vocabulary yields problems prevalent among learners of this new digital era such as low participation and difficulties to keep learners attentive to lessons being learned. Deploying classroom action research, this study aims to depict the implementation of Quizlet in learning vocabulary at the tertiary level and to elicit learners' responses to Quizlet utilization in the classroom. In this regard, observation and interview were triangulated to get an enhanced portrayal of what occurred during the learning. These instruments resulted in findings that Quizlet to some extent helped in fostering learners’ engagement, as well as persistence in vocabulary learning and that the learners enjoyed learning vocabulary in Quizlet and considered Quizlet as useful and beneficial tool for their learning development, particularly in vocabulary learning. Hence, it is suggested that teachers make use of Quizlet to provide learners with a new way of learning that is interesting, innovative, and probably improving learners’ learning experiences, eventually fulfilling the learners’ demand of the 21st century.Keywords: Vocabulary learning; Quizlet; learner engagement; CALL

Abstract

Writing has always been beneficial for those who master it. Albeit its virtues, it is subject to investigation due to issues concerning its derisory tasks, its complexity, and its arid learning activities. Based upon the issues, this study is aimed at portraying how English teachers teach students writing recount texts by integrating Padlet into their classroom. Involving one English teacher and a class of 25 students, this study obtained the data through observation of four class meetings. The data were then analyzed qualitatively to depict thoroughly the teaching practice of the teacher as Padlet was deployed in the classroom. The analysis resulted in findings vis-à-vis the integration of Padlet and the teacher’s ways of integrating Padlet, that the integration of technology is categorized into some levels. The findings to some extent conform to previous studies that the integration of technology has been prevalent among English teaching in general. It is therefore suggested that teachers maintain the integration of technology while keep on fostering the accompanying capability of integrating it. Keywords: writing; recount texts; Padlet; technology integration; digital teaching media.

Abstract

Vocabulary is one of the elements of language that is crucial. Lack of vocabulary can lead to students’ inability to listen, read, write, and speak well. The aims of this study are to investigate students’ responses on the implementation of Virtual Reality in teaching vocabulary. The participants of this study were six students in eighth grade of a Junior High School in Cianjur. This research applied a qualitative method using questionnaire as an instrument for gaining the data. The findings show that Virtual Reality was perceived variously by the students. The students declared virtual reality as a supportive device, a user-friendly application, and provision of an immersive experience which make them learn vocabulary authentically. However, the students faced some challenges during the learning process including the limitation of supportive device and the negative physical effect such as feeling dizzy and getting headache.
