Abstract:
ABSTRACT The relationship between second language vocabulary and listening comprehension has been barely explored, and in most cases with inadequate instruments. This study intends to bridge those gaps by examining the contribution of the language learners’ vocabulary size to their listening ability. The vocabulary size of 284 learners of English was assessed with both an aural and a written vocabulary test. A standardized listening test was used to assess their listening ability. Data were analysed with the Rasch model to determine the participants’ abilities and the item difficulties. Evidence from data analyses supported the following findings: L2 vocabulary knowledge and listening comprehension are strongly and positively related. Aural and written vocabulary knowledge are two clearly different dimensions. Aural vocabulary knowledge predicts listening comprehension better than written vocabulary knowledge, especially among weaker listeners. Based on these results, more emphasis could be placed on learners’ aural vocabulary knowledge to improve their listening. KEYWORDS: EFL; second language teaching; L2 vocabulary; L2 listening; RESUMEN La relación entre el vocabulario y la comprensión oral en una segunda lengua ha sido poco explorada, y en la mayoría de los casos con instrumentos inadecuados. Este estudio pretende llenar esos vacíos investigando la contribución del tamaño del vocabulario de los estudiantes de lenguas en su capacidad de comprensión oral. El tamaño de vocabulario de 284 estudiantes de inglés como segunda lengua fue valorado tanto con una prueba oral de vocabulario como con una prueba escrita. Una prueba estandarizada de comprensión oral fue utilizada para valorar su capacidad de comprensión oral. Los datos fueron analizados con el modelo Rasch para determinar las capacidades de los participantes y las dificultades de los elementos de las pruebas. Las evidencias provenientes de los análisis de datos apoyaron los siguientes hallazgos: El conocimiento de vocabulario y la comprensión oral en una segunda lengua están relacionados de forma clara y positiva. El conocimiento de vocabulario oral y escrito son dos dimensiones claramente distintas. El conocimiento de vocabulario oral predice mejor la comprensión oral que el conocimiento de vocabulario escrito, particularmente entre quienes tienen peor comprensión oral. Con base en estos resultados, se podría poner un mayor énfasis en el conocimiento de vocabulario oral de quienes aprenden una segunda lengua para mejorar su comprensión oral. KEYWORDS: inglés como lengua extranjera; enseñanza de segunda lengua; vocabulario de segunda lengua; comprensión oral de segunda lengua;

Abstract:
Students must begin learning vocabulary after it has been presented and often before it has been practiced. While practicing and applying vocabulary is an important part of the learning process, students often require time to process a vocabulary item. The first step is to figure out how to record various aspects of the word - What do words mean? to get an idea of how difficult it is to know a word. It is critical to keep a word somewhere accessible or to keep it in mind. In teaching English vocabulary to students through vocabulary classification techniques, we can group words and develop their learning and use of meanings more easily through classification techniques.

Abstract:
This study developed questionnaire items that can identify elementary learners’ vocabulary comprehension based on CEFR basic user level. This study also analyzed the use of textbooks’ vocabulary definitions based on CEFR basic user level. Vocabulary comprehension analysis was conducted on 141 students in 3rd through 6th grades for 33 vocabularies. As a result, Korean elementary learners’ vocabulary comprehension corresponded to CEFR basic user. Usually, A1 was higher than A2 in each vocabulary’s meaning comprehension. CEFR EVP(English Vocabulary Profile) classifies a single vocabulary’s various meanings to different levels. According to this study, 33 vocabularies have 2-4 meanings in CEFR basic user. In contrast, the Korean textbook wasn’t more varied in meaning usage compared to CEFR basic user’s. Specifically, A1 meanings were used more often than A2’s in textbooks. Since this study analyzed textbooks actually used by learners, there could be a relationship between learners’ vocabulary comprehension and textbook vocabulary meaning use. This study suggested a method of developing items according to CEFR level based on textbooks and curriculum vocabularies. The spectrum of vocabularies in the curriculum can be expanded with studies of learners based on CEFR level. Also, it is necessary to expand the vocabulary definitions in textbooks according to learners’ vocabulary comprehension.

Abstract:
Acquisition of word meanings, or vocabulary, reflects general mental ability (psychometric g) more than than do most abilities measured in test batteries. Among diverse subtests, vocabulary is especially high on indices of genetic influences. Bloom's exposition of the psychological complexities of understanding words, involving the primacy of concepts, the theory of mind, and other processes, explains vocabulary's predominant g saturation.

The Test de Vocabulaire en Images (the French version of the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test) and the Columbia Mental Maturity Scale were administered to 44 persons with mental retardation who were aged 6.8 yr. to 18.2 yr. Analysis indicated a significant influence of chronological age on the Test de Vocabulaire en Images Mental Age. This influence of chronological age probably explains why receptive vocabulary tests consistently overestimate the IQ of persons with mental retardation.

Abstract:
Vocabulary’s relationship to reading proficiency is frequently cited as a justification for the assessment of L2 written receptive vocabulary knowledge. However, to date, there has been relatively little research regarding which modalities of vocabulary knowledge have the strongest correlations to reading proficiency, and observed differences have often been statistically non-significant. The present research employs a bootstrapping approach to reach a clearer understanding of relationships between various modalities of vocabulary knowledge to reading proficiency. Test-takers ( N = 103) answered 1000 vocabulary test items spanning the third 1000 most frequent English words in the New General Service List corpus (Browne, Culligan, & Phillips, 2013). Items were answered under four modalities: Yes/No checklists, form recall, meaning recall, and meaning recognition. These pools of test items were then sampled with replacement to create 1000 simulated tests ranging in length from five to 200 items and the results were correlated to the Test of English for International Communication (TOEIC®) Reading scores. For all examined test lengths, meaning-recall vocabulary tests had the highest average correlations to reading proficiency, followed by form-recall vocabulary tests. The results indicated that tests of vocabulary recall are stronger predictors of reading proficiency than tests of vocabulary recognition, despite the theoretically closer relationship of vocabulary recognition to reading.

El presente estudio cuantitativo experimental busco explorar los efectos de la instrucción de vocabulario integrado en el desempeño de la comprensión lectora de estudiantes con nivel A1 de inglés como idioma extranjero en un colegio público rural en Ecuador. Los participantes fueron estudiantes entre 15 y 17 años en su primer año de bachillerato, todos ellos fueron seleccionados por un muestreo a conveniencia. Los participantes estuvieron divididos en dos grupos (tradicional e integrado) y se les solicitó participar en ocho lecciones de lectura. Después de cada clase, los estudiantes participaron en una prueba de comprensión lectora basada en tareas de comprensión literal. Además, las percepciones del grupo experimental fueron analizadas mediante un cuestionario. Adicionalmente, se utilizó una escala de conocimientos de vocabulario (VKS) tres veces para medir el conocimiento previo, el aprendizaje y la retención de palabras. Este estudio encontró que la instrucción de vocabulario integrado mejora la comprensión de lectura de los estudiantes, y es beneficiosa para el aprendizaje y retención de vocabulario. Por otra parte, este trabajo de investigación propone un estudio adicional sobre los beneficios de una instrucción integrada al trabajar con niveles superiores de competencia.

ABSTRACT This experimental quantitative study explored the effects of an integrated vocabulary instruction on reading comprehension performance of A1 EFL learners in a rural public school in Ecuador. The participants of this study were students between 15 and 17 years old in their first baccalaureate year, all of them were selected by convenience sampling. The participants were divided into two groups (traditional and integrated) and asked to participate in eight reading lessons with their designated vocabulary instruction. After each class, they took part in a reading comprehension test based on literal comprehension questions. Moreover, the perceptions from the experimental group were gathered by a questionnaire. Additionally, a vocabulary knowledge scale (VKS) was used three times to measure previous knowledge, learning, and retention of words. This study shows that an integrated vocabulary instruction improves learners´ reading comprehension, and it is beneficial for vocabulary learning and retention. Furthermore, this research work proposes a further study on the benefits of an integrated instruction by working with upper levels of proficiency.

Abstract:
Abstract Introducing vocabulary to students is not always an easy task. Due to music and movies that young people are exposed to today, vocabulary acquisition is more often not taken seriously. Young people can hum or repeat sentences from a movie that impress them and think that they are able to communicate in a foreign language. In an academic environment you realize that each new vocabulary word is like a brick needed to build up a whole wall; is a small step that help you enrich your abilities to speak, write and understand all the English you might need at a certain time in your professional life. Studies have shown that the more words you know in a foreign language the more you can use it in real life situations. In this study we will approach the theoretical studies related to vocabulary acquisition as well as some practical exercises that might be used in class.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to compare the vocabulary learning of monolingual learners of English as a second language with bilingual learners of English as a third language. The study is based on data from 52 monolingual Persian-speaking learners of English and 45 bilingual Azeri-Persian-speaking learners of English. All the participants were females studying English as a foreign language at two universities in Iran. The informants were exposed to two incidental and four intentional vocabulary learning exercises. They were then measured at four difficulty levels using the Vocabulary Knowledge Scale (Paribakht & Wesche, 1997). Variables such as English language proficiency, intelligence, family educational background, gender, age and type of university were controlled. The third language learners outperformed their second language counterparts at all word difficulty levels. The findings are discussed in relation to bilinguals’ higher level of executive and inhibitory control.

Abstract:
This past semester I conducted my dissertation research at Penn Valley Community College (PVCC) in Kansas City, Missouri. PVCC is located in the urban core of Kansas City, Missouri, and its academic English program serves primarily refugees and immigrants, as opposed to the international students that we work with at the Applied English Center. I chose to work with the students at PVCC because my roots as an ESL teacher are within the refugee and immigrant communities, and I enjoy maintaining my connection with these very interesting students.

Abstract:
This article investigates the technique of teaching vocabulary using Beare’s vocabulary charts. The technique helps to improve students’ mastery of English language and widens their passive and active vocabulary based on related word group areas. The relevancy between vocabularies in the charts is the vocabulary used in students’ daily activities. Adopting a Classroom Action Research, this study collected the data by using vocabulary charts, tests, field notes, checklist, and questionnaires. The result showed that the implementation of vocabulary chart has improved semester three students’ vocabulary achievement at Universitas Islam Balitar, Blitar. 77% of the students passed the minimum criteria of success in the first cycle, and 75% of the students passed the minimum criteria in the second cycle. This technique is beneficial to facilitate students in learning English vocabulary. Vocabulary word charts in teaching English vocabulary are thus recommended.

Abstract:
The U.S. currently has wide income and racial achievement gaps in reading. The disparity between African Americans or Hispanics and Caucasians is multiple grade levels; in other words, 13-year-old Caucasians' reading scores are equivalent to those of 17-year-old Hispanics or African Americans (Family Facts 2009). While this reading gap has multiple causes, the vocabulary disparity is one of the primary drivers. These vocabulary differences are present when students begin school and only widen in each successive school year. Additionally, vocabulary understanding is critical for reading comprehension and thus success on standardized tests and ultimately success in high school and college. It is clear, therefore, that if the nationhopes to reduce the reading achievement gap and help boost college completion rates for lowincome and minority Americans, the vocabulary gap must be addressed.

Abstract:
In this article, we describe the pedagogical basis for class vocabulary lists (CVLs) and their implementation using Google Sheets. CVLs allow students to collaborate and build “notebooks” of vocabulary that they feel is important to learn. CVL choices of students (N = 53) in three classes of mixed non-English majors and one informatics class were compared against frequency-based lists (British National Corpus/Corpus of Contemporary American English Word Family Lists [BNC/COCA], New General Service List [NGSL], Test of English for International Communication [TOEIC] Service List [TSL]) using the Compleat Web Vocabulary Profiler (Web VP) to determine the usefulness of the selected vocabulary. An information technology keywords list, constructed using AntConc and AntCorGen, was compared against the informatics group’s CVL to determine if those students were choosing field-appropriate vocabulary. Results suggest that when given autonomy to choose vocabulary, students generally select useful and relevant words for their contexts (e.g, simulation, virtual, privacy, artificial, denuclearization, aftershock, heatstroke) and that CVLs supplement frequency-based lists in beneficial ways.

Abstract:
As one of the core aspects and basic unit in language, vocabulary plays a salient role in improving student’s language ability. Besides, vocabulary learning strategies play an obviously important part in the whole process of language learning. By examining the theories and approach to the vocabulary test, found by linguists locally and abroad, as well as vocabulary learning strategies, this research tries to systematically explicate several vocabulary tests in order to help English teachers design more creditable vocabulary tests to evaluate student’s vocabulary knowledge. At the same time, in hope that through this research, middle school students would be guided to use English vocabulary learning strategies more efficiently, thus enhancing their self-learning ability.
