Abstract

The present study examines students' perceptions of the utilization of English movies for vocabulary acquisition. This study employed a mixed-method research design, combining both quantitative and qualitative approaches. The study included students from the English Study Program at FKIP Universitas Riau, who were in batch 2021. The researcher employed questionnaire and interview methods to gather data regarding students' perceptions of the efficacy of using English movies as a medium for vocabulary acquisition. The questionnaire consisted of 27 items, each containing 3 indications. The highest score for the indication is achieved by students' personal attitude and the acquisition of a new language, both of which are classified as very high criteria for both indicators. The study determined that the mean score of the pupil's perceptions of the use of English movies for vocabulary acquisition is 4.0, which falls under the high criteria category. Based on the interview data, the researcher discovered some reactions from the respondents to the application of English movies for vocabulary acquisition. The interview findings indicate that English movies provide students with an opportunity to encounter terms in authentic contexts. Additionally, the students assert that they make an effort to incorporate the new vocabulary they come across in English movies into their everyday conversations.

Abstract

The research aims to find out vocabulary learning strategies used by male and female students. It uses quantitative methods. The research population involved second-grade students at MTs Darul Hikmah Pekanbaru. The research sample was 100 students. The researchers used questionnaires to collect data on vocabulary learning strategies. There were 34 items with 5 strategies. The result of the data showed that male and female students employed more than one strategy in learning vocabulary. Those strategies were determination, social, memory, cognitive, and meta-cognitive strategies. There are differences between male and female students using vocabulary learning strategies. The most common strategy used by male students was cognitive strategy. While, the most common strategy used by female students were cognitive, memory, determination, and meta-cognitive strategy.

Abstract

Vocabulary acquisition is a cornerstone of language proficiency, yet many university students face difficulties in managing their learning autonomously. Self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies offer potential for greater independence, but their actual implementation in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) contexts remains underexplored. This study examines the lived experiences of EFL students in applying SRL strategies for vocabulary learning, focusing on how they adapt these strategies to their individual goals, contexts, and challenges. A qualitative phenomenological design was employed, involving semi-structured interviews with 14 second-semester English Study Program students at Universitas Riau. Data were analyzed through thematic analysis, guided by Zimmerman’s SRL model. Three themes emerged. First, students flexibly applied SRL strategies by adapting Zimmerman’s framework to personal goals, moods, and contexts, though systematic goal-setting was often absent. Second, digital tools such as Duolingo, TikTok, and YouTube shaped personalized learning ecosystems that blended formal study with informal media, underscoring both creativity and the need for digital self-regulation. Third, students reported difficulties in sustaining consistent SRL due to challenges in time management, emotional regulation, and transforming receptive into productive vocabulary. The study highlights how EFL learners adapt SRL in dynamic and non-linear ways, extending Zimmerman’s model to digital and affective dimensions of vocabulary learning. Pedagogically, findings underscore the need for structured support to help students bridge the gap between strategic awareness and consistent application, while offering directions for future research on fostering resilient autonomous learning habits.
