Abstract

Especially in the last ten years, Spanish has become a more popular language among secondary and high school students in Thailand. This study aims to investigate the motivations, i.e., the internal and external factors that influence secondary and high school English program students who choose to study Spanish as a foreign language. Thirty-six English program students from Satri Suksa Roi Et School who were studying Spanish as a foreign language participated in the survey. The findings showed that their motivations of learning Spanish, both intrinsic and extrinsic, is moderate (58%). In comparison, the intrinsic motivations play a more important role than the extrinsic (61.8% vs. 54.2%). The most important internal factors that influence the students are that they want to communicate and read in Spanish and that they think that Spanish is one of the most important languages in the world. The external factor that is most often selected is that they would like to travel to countries where people speak Spanish. In conclusion, both secondary school and high school students are interested in studying Spanish because they would like to be able to communicate in Spanish and they recognize that it is one of the important languages in the world. However, according to the results, some external factors, related to Hispanic culture and media (including social media) in Spanish, were not so important as we expected.

Abstract

The present study sought to investigate learning strategies and French vocabulary memorization strategies as well as to examine French vocabulary learning strategies employed among French-majored students at Khon Kaen University with high, moderate and low levels of GPA. In particular, the participants were 89 French-majored students, including second-year, third-year, and fourth-year students. In data collection, the instruments used in this study were a 38-item questionnaire concerning learning strategies and French vocabulary memorization strategies adapted from Schmitt’s Vocabulary Learning Strategies Questionnaire (2000). Statistics used to analyze the collected data included percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The results demonstrated that the most frequently used strategy for the discovery of a new word’s meaning was determination strategies, the most commonly used of which were using a French-Thai dictionary application and guessing word meaning from textual context respectively. Concerning strategies for consolidating a word, the most frequently employed was memory strategies. Pronouncing the word aloud while studying and practicing its spelling were two of the most frequently used strategies. In the meantime, in terms of cognitive strategies, most often employed were written repetition and the use of an application for taking notes and memorizing words. Lastly, regarding metacognitive strategies, most frequently utilized among the students were learning and memorizing words through social media as in Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Comparing strategies employed among the students with high, moderate and low levels of GPA, it was found that the strategy for the discovery of a new word’s meaning most frequently employed among all these groups was using the French-Thai dictionary application. Despite that, the students with a high GPA tended to employ more various vocabulary memorization strategies than those with a moderate and low GPA did.
