Резюме:

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of using mobile devices to support vocabulary learning in the English language teaching of students. The mobile devices include smartphones and tablets. The mobile application used is designed as a web interface for the teacher and as a smartphone application for the learners. It enables the sharing of learning resources, an analysis of the vocabulary learning process, quick feedback on progress, and each learner’s ability to choose the vocabulary to learn by themselves. The effectiveness of this mobile application for learning English vocabulary is analyzed after having used it with the learners for ten weeks. The results show an improvement in vocabulary learning of over 80%, and a 71% increase in learning motivation among students. The increase in this motivation from using mobile applications is due to the opportunities to receive immediate feedback from the practical use of the learned words and phrases in different contexts, as well as due to the more accessible use of the applications to review already learned vocabulary compared to textbooks. The main benefits of mobile devices include improving learners' cognitive capacity, motivation to learn vocabulary in formal and informal environments, autonomy and confidence, and the possibility of personalized learning and helping low-achieving students achieve learning goals.
