thus, teaching vocabulary is also important Nevertheless, it has not received much recognition it deserves in the classroom at Ha Long Gifted High school The students here tend to think grammar is important but vocabulary is not and they feel like learning grammar more than vocabulary There are many methods and approaches applied to teaching vocabulary; however, choosing one way to teach new words effectively is not easy When I studied for my Master‟s Degree in TESOL, I was taught things like „communicative language teaching‟, „methodology of English language teaching‟, „approaches to language teaching‟, etc, and I really care about Form- Focused Instruction theory as it emphasizes the importance of communicative language use and learnercenteredness Another reason is that classroom setting especially that at high school is often overlooked in favour of a more theoretical focus As a teacher of English at a high school, I want to comprehend more about applying Form-Focused Instruction theory to English teaching with focus on teaching English vocabulary to high school students Thus, this study attempts to explore form- focused instruction in an ESL classroom from the perspective of high school teacher cognition This study is conducted to investigate current situation of teaching vocabulary at Ha Long Gifted high school The study attempts to cast some light on the FFI theory in vocabulary teaching that teachers find effective in practice and tries to draw some LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com implications for applying Form-Focused Instruction to improve teaching vocabulary at Ha Long Gifted high school Aims of the study The study aims at: o Investigating the current situation of teaching and learning English vocabulary at Ha Long Gifted School o Identifying the difficulties and obstacles that the teachers and students at Ha Long Gifted School often cope with when teaching and learning vocabulary based on Form-Focused Instruction theory (Research Question 2) o Making some recommendations for applying Form- Focused Instruction to teaching English vocabulary effectively at Ha Long Gifted School Significance of the study The study, once completed, will serve as part of continuous research on the teaching of vocabulary with the intention to provide teachers of English at Ha Long Gifted high school with a deeper understanding of applying Form-Focused Instruction- a modification of Communicative Language Teaching- in teaching vocabulary In addition, it is hoped that the study will be of great significance in helping students to be aware of their vocabulary learning problems; the teachers will also benefit from the findings of the research in working out an effective way to assist their students in communicative vocabulary learning Scope of the study The notion of Form-Focused Instruction has been applied in teaching grammar, pronunciation, speaking and writing However, this study only investigates the application of Form –Focused instruction in teaching and learning vocabulary Besides, due to the limited time and small scale of the research, it is only conducted in the context of Ha Long Gifted High school with the participation of only English teachers and 80 students LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Research questions The research paper seeks answers to the following questions: Research question 1: What is the role of vocabulary in language teaching and learning at Ha Long Gifted School? Research question 2: How is vocabulary taught and learned at Ha Long Gifted School? Research question 3: What should be done to apply Form-Focused Instruction to teaching and learning vocabulary effectively at Ha Long Gifted High school? Methods of the study Both quantitative and qualitative methods are used to carry out the research First of all, to form Theoretical Background for the research, theories, materials from different sources including journals, books and internet are collected and analyzed, synthesized and evaluated Then, survey questionnaire including open-ended and closed- ended questions is used in collecting data for the study due to its unprecedented efficiency in terms of research time, research effort and financial resources (Hoang & Nguyen, 2006:10) While closed questions are useful for obtaining quantitative information and are easier to analyze, open-ended questions can be useful for gathering qualitative information and for discovering new variables in response Thanks to survey questionnaire, the researcher can collect a huge amount of information in a short period of time and “with well-constructed questionnaire, processing data can also be fast and relatively straightforward” (Gillian, 2000) Thus, there are two sets of questionnaires employed The first containing 11 open-ended and closed- ended questions is for 80 students, the other containing 11 open- ended and closed- ended questions is for six teachers at Ha Long Gifted High School The qualitative method is used in the interview Semi-structured type is chosen since “it gives the interviewee a degree of power and control over the course of the interview […] and the interviewer a great deal of flexibility” (Hoang & Nguyen, LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com the limited English proficiency of both teachers and students, as well as the poor teaching and learning conditions, which partly explains the reason why although the significance of FFI in teaching vocabulary has been recognized, it is not applied at HLGS as much as expected Implication 2.1 For teachers In order to apply FonF instruction effectively, teachers should take into consideration the following things: Firstly, a well-planned lesson is always necessary to contribute to the effectiveness of FonF instruction Teachers should consider the following main issues in their vocabulary lesson: the goal of the lesson, the number of lexical items and communicative activities in a lesson Preparing materials is also needed for the lesson and pointing out teaching procedures is also worth considering These preparations will not only provide the lexical items that are needed for students to learn, but it also affords the teachers a tool to guide their instruction based on both curriculum standards and students‟ interests Moreover, the teachers must have high level of language proficiency to be able to recognize the students‟ form-based errors and provide them with the correct ones To correct errors in students‟ written or spoken lexical items, teachers should help them to notice and learn from their errors Teachers should provide their students communicative tasks for written and spoken output and interaction in their class and give students praise and positive feedback on their work, whether it is oral (in class) or written (in homework) In addition, teachers must be careful when designing communicative activities for students to learn vocabulary In the context of focus on form instruction in teaching vocabulary, one common challenge of the teachers is that they should think of activities that involve students‟ attention to form while retaining meaningful communication The teachers should consider the purpose and organization of the activity, the length of the lesson and the language competence of their students 39 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Lexical items might be more easily recalled and effectively used by students if they relate forms to the context of communication where they learn them Lastly, teachers should know their students and a simple in-class needs analysis to decide what, how and how much to teach to cover most of the students‟ needs because learners come to English classes with varying communicative needs, learning styles and preferences Understanding students‟ expectations about learning vocabulary to communicate, and to satisfy their needs, teachers can choose suitable teaching methods to motivate the effectiveness of teaching and learning vocabulary 2.2 For students The most important thing to deal with students is that they should be made aware of the benefits of communicative language teaching in general and communicative activities or tasks in learning vocabulary in particular Once they consider studying languages for communication, they will have motivation to acquire and use the target vocabulary Furthermore, students should express their needs and expectations to their teachers in their vocabulary lessons Instead of being passive in the class, they are expected to join all the activities conducted by the teachers actively They should also hold English club by themselves, or create communicative situations for learning their vocabulary 2.3 For administrators To assist teachers in their teaching, administrators are recommended to form smaller classes and place students of the same level into one class This would create more teachers‟ efficiency in their jobs Besides, it is necessary for administrators to organize training courses, workshops for teachers to improve their English proficiency, teaching method and management skills Teachers can also exchange their knowledge and experience with each other by that way 40 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Last but not least, it is suggested that administrators should support teachers with teaching conditions and teaching aids If the classrooms are well-equipped and teachers are supplied with various and interesting teaching materials, students will be more excited and feels easier to participate in the lessons Limitations of the study Despite having been completed, this study remains some unavoidable limitations Because of the limited time, knowledge of the researcher as well as the limited size of a minor thesis, the study was only conducted in a limited setting of a high school with a small number of teachers and students If the research were conducted over longer period of time with various intakes, it would give more valuable, reliable and valid data The validity of the findings and the reliability of any implications and recommendations would also be maximized if the researcher could employ more research instrument like classroom observation In addition, the investigated matter in the study was also limited This research only found out overally whether vocabulary was taught and learned toward FonF or FonFs instruction at HLG High school as well as the difficulties that teachers and students met It hasn‟t yet investigated the effectiveness of applying FonF instruction in teaching and learning vocabulary at HLGS Recommendations for further studies Based on some limitations, the writer would like to suggest some recommendations for further research Firstly, regarding the current research‟s limitation on number of participants, later one on the same topic may need the involvement of more respondents Besides, further research should be carried out to figure in detail how FonF instruction is applied in teaching and learning vocabulary and how effective it is 41 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com REFERENCES Anthony, E M (1963) Approach, method and technique
