2 INTRODUCTIONRESEARCH METHODOLOGYDATA ANALYSISCONCLUSIONSRECOMMENDATIONS “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” GLOCALL 2010

3 English Language Learning a suitable method is important! to determine the effectiveness of mastering this language Vocabulary Sets is a very crucial element in mastering the four language skills and other language contents GLOCALL 2010 “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence”

4 According to Nunan (1991) adequate vocabulary is important for successful second language use Gairns and Redman, 1986, Lewis, 1993, and Schmitt and McCarthy, 1997 cited in Fowle (2002) also believed that vocabulary learning should be central to the language programs The comparative study between the traditional and multimedia- enhanced read aloud vocabulary instruction found that there was no added benefit of multimedia-enhanced for non- English-language learners (non-ELLs)but there was a positive effect for ELLs on a researcher-designed measure and on a measure of a general vocabulary knowledge (Silverman & Hines, 2009). GLOCALL 2010 “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence”

5 Ronda and Gerald (2001) and their colleagues have developed competencies and technology integration proficiencies in the past decade and assembled within a framework for technology integration GLOCALL 2010 Drenoyianni & Selwood (1998) also state that it is clear that computers promote a student-centred way of learning and that impact the teacher is no longer the key factor of the learning process James (1996), attitudes influence behaviour. In vocabulary learning, for example, by using the computer courseware approach, this could be what learner believes about their role in the learning process or about their capabilities as language learners. “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence”

6  to investigate the effectiveness of learning vocabulary through the use of computer-based courseware  to identify the student’s attitude towards the use of computer-based courseware in learning basic vocabulary sets and the relationship with their academic performance GLOCALL 2010 “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence”  only on the teaching and learning of vocabulary sets  specifically for Form One level  courseware used in the research was limited only to words that are based on the context of relevant vocabulary elements

7 #1 Is the use of Computer-based English Courseware more effective than the conventional classroom instruction in the teaching of basic vocabulary sets to lower secondary school students? “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” GLOCALL 2010

8 #2 What are the students’ attitudes toward the use of computer-based courseware in the teaching of basic vocabulary sets? “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” GLOCALL 2010

9 #3 Is there any relationship between the students’ attitude toward the computer- based courseware approach and their vocabulary skills performance? “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” GLOCALL 2010

10 Quantitative case study an experimental and a survey design Subjects 60 Form One secondary school students at a rural school in Negeri Sembilan 30 students randomly selected from each group (Class 1A & Class 1B) - intermediate to advanced levels based on their Year Six UPSR results in primary schools.  Form 1A -control group 1  Form 1B - experimental group “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” GLOCALL 2010

11 #1 EXPERIMENT to analyze the students’ level of knowledge of the vocabulary sets as a result of being exposed to 2 different methods of teaching Control group = printed handouts Experimental group = English computer-based courseware TESTS 25 items of basic vocabulary sets  similar structured pre-tests and post-tests 1 test =5 basic vocabulary sets (types of occupations, family tree, types of hobbies, types of sizes, shapes and colours and types of inventions) “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” GLOCALL 2010

12 #2 QUESTIONNAIRE measure the attitude toward the use of English computer-based courseware in developing vocabulary skills 3 Sections  student’s profile  English language background  7 statements – vocabulary lessons 4-point rating scale total score of 28 points (4 x 7 items of Part C) =a very positive attitude minimum 7 points = a very negative attitude “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” GLOCALL 2010

13 30 Form One students -same selected school Cronbach Alpha Analysis TEST reliability value for the test r=0.71 -high reliability QUESTIONNAIRE reliability value of r=0.62 - high reliability “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” GLOCALL 2010

14 “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” H1: The use of computer−based English Courseware is not more effective than the use of conventional classroom instructions in enhancing students’ vocabulary skills performance H2: The students do not have positive attitudes toward the use of computer−based English courseware in learning vocabulary sets in the classroom H3: There is no statistically significant relationship between the students’ attitudes toward the use of computer−based courseware and their vocabulary skills performance GLOCALL 2010

15 “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” PAIRED SAMPLES T-TEST H1 rejected students of experimental group performed better than students of control group GLOCALL 2010

16 “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” mean difference of the between pre-test and post-test = -4.10 negative t value for the pre−test < mean value for the post−test *p <0.05 significant difference in the control group GLOCALL 2010

17 “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” mean difference of the between pre-test and post-test = -5.67 negative t value for the pre−test < mean value for the post−test *p <0.05 significant difference in the experimental group GLOCALL 2010

18 “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” 60 respondents scored > 14 points mean score =20.22 standard deviation = 2.14 H2 rejected all students have positive attitudes toward the use of Computer-based English courseware in learning vocabulary sets in the classroom statement 7= 91.7% the English Courseware had made the vocabulary lesson fun and interesting = positive attitude GLOCALL 2010

21 “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” relationship between the students’ attitudes and their post-test achievement scores correlation between the attitudes of students in the experimental group and their post-test scores highly positive at r = 0.682 significant value of p<.005 H3 rejected significant relationship between the students’ attitudes toward the computer-based courseware approach and their vocabulary skill performance GLOCALL 2010

22 # 1# 2 a positive attitude towards the use of computer courseware to learn the Basic English vocabulary sets in the classroom =vocabulary lesson fun and interesting # 3 a significantly positive relationship between their attitudes and their vocabulary skills performance computer-based English courseware > effective than the conventional classroom instructions in enhancing students’ vocabulary skills performance

23 Back to school multimedia computer-based courseware  potential to raise the student’s motivation in learning the English Language  improve level of student’s achievement  a complement to the classroom learning or teaching process “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence”

24  schools should be provided with better computer facilities  staff development and training  teachers should help the students by guiding them in vocabulary learning  right encouragement and support by the teacher “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” GLOCALL 2010

25  the effectiveness of Computer Courseware for enhancing reading development in the classroom  listening and speaking activities as an additional research  the study of the effectiveness of the language used in the courseware and come out with examples of the use of language in influencing the students to like and understand the lessons better “ Creative & Innovative Towards Excellence” GLOCALL 2010
