Technology for allowing me to carry out this study and thank my colleagues and all the students in class KT 19-05 for their participation in the study process Finally, an honorable mention goes to my families and friends for their assistance and support for me in completing this thesis ii z ABSTRACT Vocabulary plays an important role in second language learning process However, for most of Vietnamese students in general and learners at Hanoi University of Business and Technology (HUBT) in particular, vocabulary seems to be one of the most difficult problems in learning English As a result, the researcher planned to conduct an extensive reading program as a mean of vocabulary improvement for first-year students at HUBT The study was carried out in the form of an action research study on 30 students of class KT 19-05 Before the implementation, a questionnaire was used to collect information from the students to identify the problem and the causes of the problem The collected data were analyzed to confirm the assumption that the lack of vocabulary really existed, and the cause of this problem was due to students‟ limited reading in class as well as at home Inspired by positive results in studies about extensive reading, the researcher created a plan of action in which graded readers were used for extensive reading The action plan was implemented in 10 weeks‟ time Then, the data were collected from various sources, including questionnaires, a pre-test, a post-test and book reports from students The findings from the study showed that extensive reading had a positive effect on learners‟ vocabulary acquisition and that there was a significant change in the students‟ attitude towards extensive reading Based on the findings of the study, some discussion and limitations were presented along with some important pedagogy of implications Despite the limitations, it is hoped that the study can be used as a reference as well as a source of useful information for other teachers who wish to utilize extensive reading in their class concrete context iii z

PART I: INTRODUCTION Rationale of the study Founded in 1996 with the original name of Hanoi Private University of Management and Business, Hanoi University of Business and Technology (HUBT) has grown considerably in recent years and is becoming one of the most prestigious private universities in Vietnam At present, the university offers courses in three educational levels: College, Bachelor and Master with 15 different academic areas including Business Management, Trading Business, Tourism Business, Finance, Banking, Accounting, Information Technology, and Architecture and so on The university continues to pursue the goal of providing its undergraduate and graduate students with a practice-oriented education Every graduate with an HUBT degree is expected to master their professional knowledge, be proficient in using computer and especially be able to communicate in English in daily life situations as well as in business environment In order to meet the above demand, the university management board has put much emphasis on the teaching and learning of English, which is one of the crucial factors contributing to the success of both students and the university Consequently, HUBT spends a large volume of time teaching English for students from the first year to the third year The first-year students are expected to gain A2 level based on the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) after finishing the second term, before learning ESP (English for Specific Purposes) and TOEIC (Test of English for International Communication) For this reason, the first year students are required to learn at least 240 compulsory periods of English in the first and second terms at the university Every week, the students have eight periods of English lessons; each is 45 minutes long The major course book used for students is Market leader (Elementary– 3rd edition by David Cotton, David Falvey and Simon Kent, the 2013 edition) Each unit of the book includes a wide range of activities: Vocabulary, Reading, Listening, Language review (Grammar) and Skills, and Case study (Speaking)
