frequently-used vocabulary learning strategies acquired by non-major first year students of English at University of Education – Thai Nguyen University (TNU) and effective strategies employed by these students This introductory chapter will first present the rationale and context of the study, and then the aims of the study and research questions, the scope of the study and the significance of the study are highlighted, followed by a brief description of the structural organization of the whole paper 1.1 Rationale of the study lu “Without grammar very little can be conveyed, without vocabulary nothing can be an conveyed” (Wilkins, 1972, p 111) Vocabulary plays an important role in learning va n foreign languages It's the essential think about communication with people (Krashen gh tn to & Terrel, 1983) Each reading and listening comprehension are also powerfully associated with vocabulary information Laufer (1991) found vital correlations ie p between vocabulary tests and reading success of second language learners Although nl w several variables have an effect on reading, the performance associated with the oa variable of vocabulary is considered the most important prediction of reading d comprehension (Anderson & Freebody, 1981) Hu (1999) conjointly found that lu va an students with textual vocabulary or background information perform higher on u nf listening comprehension than those without such knowledge ll In the second language or foreign acquisition, it is widely acknowledged that m oi vocabulary is vital and important a part of the four language skills For second z at nh language (ESL) or foreign language (EFL) learners, vocabulary is one in every of the vital language components that supports the abilities of speaking, listening, z gm @ reading and writing According to McCarthy (1990), although the learners can produce sounds perfectly, if there is no word to precise a wider vary of meanings, l m co communication simply cannot happen in any significant way Several researchers realize the variations between smart language learners and bad language learners and an Lu look for the reason why good learners have better achievement than bad learners va http://lrc.tnu.edu.vn n Số hóa Trung tâm Học liệu Công nghệ thông tin – ĐHTN ac th si Thornburry (2002) believed that good learners savvy to be told, reach a live of autonomy and develop their own techniques or methods However, in Asian countries, vocabulary appears to be very little stress within the university program (Fan, 2003) Being attentive to vocabulary learning has been indicated as important Doczi (2001) believed that vocabulary learning strategies will help the students in finding out the meaning of new words and consolidating them once it has been understood Therefore, it is very crucial to understand the strategies that consciously or unconsciously applied by good language learners Many common strategies such as mnemonic devices, vocabulary notebooks, guessing meaning from lu context, and verbal and written repetition are applied in learning vocabulary The an awareness of vocabulary learning methods can facilitate second language learners to va n enhance vocabulary learning and enhance lexical competency Moreover, knowing tn to the factors that square measure influencing the employment of vocabulary learning ie gh methods will facilitate learners and researchers to style applicable materials and p activities (Thornburry, 2002) nl w In the Vietnamese context, English is a foreign language, and is used for various oa purposes, ranging from academic advancement, career advancement, traveling d abroad to international integration (Viet, 2016) To cope with the growing local and lu va an international demand, a number of efforts have been made to boost Vietnamese learners’ English competence One of the noticeable efforts is evidenced by the u nf ll National Foreign Project 2020 project which aims at improving the English language m oi competences of average Vietnamese nationwide Although many studies have z at nh revealed that Vietnamese students’ levels of English proficiency in writing, reading, listening and speaking are still low and need improving, fewer researches really focus z @ on vocabulary teaching and learning, especially the vocabulary learning of students l gm In University of Education – Thai Nguyen University (TNU), the National Foreign Project 2020 which requires students to achieve the level A2 of English competence m co as (Common European Framework of Reference - CEFR) upon graduation In an A2 an Lu test as the format of KET (Key English Test), students’ level of English proficiencies va http://lrc.tnu.edu.vn n Số hóa Trung tâm Học liệu Công nghệ thông tin – ĐHTN ac th si CHAPTER CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS This chapter concludes that study with a summary of major findings, its significance, limitations and implications of the study The chapter confirmed vocabulary learning strategies frequently used by non-major first year students of English at University of Education – Thai Nguyen University The chapter also made suggestions for the teaching and learning of English language skills in general as well as the teaching and learning English vocabulary in particular However, due to the limited time and scope, the study was conducted on a small scale with a small number of participants It is hoped that the findings of this study can be more powerful with further studies lu using quantitative research approach or mixed research approach to provide more an insights into the vocabulary leaning strategies in Vietnamese universities in general va n as well as at University of Education - TNU in particular gh tn to 5.1 Conclusions In the present study, vocabulary is seen as an important ingredient of language and ie p vocabulary learning is an essential part of second or foreign language learning nl w Language learners need a wide variety of target language words to be able to tackle oa successfully both production and comprehension activities in the second or foreign d language One way to help learners to enhance their knowledge of L2 vocabulary is lu va an through equipping learners with a variety of vocabulary learning strategies u nf The results of the study indicate an overall medium use of vocabulary learning ll strategies of students in University of Education – TNU Although data from the m oi questionnaire indicates that learners use all most every strategy given, the frequency z at nh is not really high Some strategies are reported to be applied frequently such as “using monolingual dictionary”, “written repetition”, “choosing the important words by z gm @ themselves and remembering them”, “ask their teacher to translate new words into Vietnamese”, “stick word lists on objects around” The other strategies are used with m co l low frequency or even rarely used In reality, students are usually expected to learn vocabulary on their own, mostly by an Lu mechanical memorization, without much guidance from teachers One out of va http://lrc.tnu.edu.vn n Số hóa Trung tâm Học liệu Công nghệ thông tin – ĐHTN ac th si teachers said that because of limited time in each period, little effort has been made to teach students strategies to improve their vocabulary learning However, merely giving students lists of words to learn does not result in effective learning, despite the growing awareness on the part of learners of the important of enhancing their communicative competence of the target language and the recognition that a much larger vocabulary is needed to this end Based on these findings of the study, two following options which might be helpful for EFL teachers and learners are recommended Firstly, teachers should choose some typical vocabulary learning strategies such as using English – English dictionary, lu using notebook which are highly beneficial and could be introduced as early as an possible Learners can write the words they encounter on their notebook and add va n translation or other knowledge they gradually acquire about the words such as tn to collocation, synonyms and antonyms Learners can be reminded to go through their ie gh notebooks regularly in order to add more information The vocabulary notebook p could then serve as a valuable resource Secondly, learners should be given opportunities to examine the effectiveness of their vocabulary learning strategies w oa nl Teachers can provide learners with different vocabulary exercises so that students’ d vocabulary learning strategies will be exposed Hence, learners will discover which lu va an strategies are suitable for them In general, teachers play an important role in making students aware of vocabulary u nf ll learning strategies’ value Moreover, teachers need to decide what framework and m oi strategies they should choose based on their students’ needs and requirements z at nh Vocabulary learning strategy training, therefore, is necessary for both learners and teachers Learners should be trained to realize which strategies they lack and teachers z 5.2 Recommendations l gm @ should be trained to think of the most appropriate method to introduce the strategies m co Firstly, teachers should introduce first year students to a variety of vocabulary learning strategies This finding provides evidence that the use of vocabulary learning an Lu strategies might contribute to vocabulary learning However, the results in the study va http://lrc.tnu.edu.vn n Số hóa Trung tâm Học liệu Công nghệ thông tin – ĐHTN ac th si also show that students did not use vocabulary learning strategies very often It is possible that students are not aware of these strategies very well It seems that vocabulary learning strategies have not been overtly taught by teachers Most teachers leave vocabulary learning to students themselves Therefore, it is important for teachers to help students become familiar with various vocabulary learning strategies and encourage them to try these strategies Secondly, teachers should pay more attention to deep strategies There has been little guidance to the learners who ask questions such as: How I memorize vocabulary better? However, the results in the present study indicate that first year students favor lu shallow strategies, which process words at a superficial level and mostly focus only an on the form of a word This might be due to the fact that deep strategies are more va n complex or not familiar to non-major first year students of English Therefore, tn to teachers should teach some deep strategies in order to help students to remember ie gh vocabulary better p Thirdly, teachers should encourage students to use more verbal repetition than written nl w repetition In addition, research has provided evidence that verbal repetition, as oa opposed to written repetition, could contribute more efficiently to the retention of d words Hence, teachers should place more emphasis on verbal repetition, which could lu va an be more effective in vocabulary learning than written repetition u nf Finally, teachers should present new words in context when teaching vocabulary ll With vocabulary, the meaning of a word occurs in context, namely, context m oi determines the meaning of a word In addition to making a word - meaningful context z at nh provides more information about a word and thus contributes to the retention of a word This argument is supported by the findings of the present study z 5.3.1 Limitation l gm @ 5.3 Limitation and suggestions for further research m co A number of limitations can be discerned in the study due to the time constraints and the researchers’ limited ability and experience Firstly, mistakes could take place an Lu when researcher translated questionnaires into Vietnamese according to Schmitt’s va http://lrc.tnu.edu.vn n Số hóa Trung tâm Học liệu Công nghệ thông tin – ĐHTN ac th si taxonomy Misinterpretation of strategies was highly probable Secondly, although Schmitt’s taxonomy is the most comprehensive available, it cannot embrace all the existing vocabulary learning strategies Thirdly, when interviewing, interviewer can be confused because interviewee could not make their ideas clear 5.3.2 Suggestion for further studies This study investigates vocabulary learning strategies as a whole Future researches can investigate other variables; for example, learners’ cultural background, traditional schooling, the demands of the vocabulary learning strategies Furthermore, this study only focuses on the use of vocabulary learning strategy among Vietnamese college lu students; therefore, in the future, studies investigating the frequency of vocabulary an strategy can be done with junior or senior Vietnamese high schools n va p ie gh tn to d oa nl w ll u nf va an lu oi m z at nh z m co l gm @ an Lu va http://lrc.tnu.edu.vn n Số hóa Trung tâm Học liệu Cơng nghệ thơng tin – ĐHTN ac th si REFERENCES Anderson, R C., Freebody, P (1981) Vocabulary knowledge in J T Guthrie (ed.): Comprehension and Teaching: Research Reviews International Reading Association 77-117 Bac, V D (2015) The use of pair work in speaking lessons in large classes: An action research study on the first year non- English major students at Thai Nguyen University of Education Master thesis Hanoi University Bialystok, E & Sharwood Smith, Michael (1985) Interlanguage is not a state of mind: An evaluation of the construct for second-language acquisition Applied lu Linguistics 10.1093/applin/6.2.101 an Cambridge Advance Learner’s Dictionary Third edition, Cambridge: Cambridge va n University Press gh tn to Gu, P Y & Johnson, R K (1996) Vocabulary Learning Strategies and Language Learning Outcomes Language Learning, 46(4), 643-679 p ie Gu, P (2003) Vocabulary learning in a second language: Person, task, context and nl w strategies Teaching English as a Second Language Electronic Journal, d oa Retrieved from http://tesl.ej.org/ej26/a4.html an lu Heyde, A (1979) The relationship between self-esteem and the oral production of a va second language University of Michigan ll u nf Hornby, A S (2000) Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary Sixth Edition Hong oi m Kong: Oxford University Press 41, 235-253 z at nh Hyland, K & TSE, P (2007) Is there an academic vocabulary?
