영문 초록

The purpose of this study was to explore how the mobile-based vocabulary learning positively affected learners’ lexical competence, language learning strategies and motivation on vocabulary learning. While taking a language program as an elective module, forty three university students participated for a semester. The students were guided to conduct their vocabulary learning through their mobile devices with given lexical items that were provided by their teachers during the data collection period. They were also asked to take vocabulary assessment through both online and offline as well as participating in the survey on the mobile-based language learning activities. The results indicated that mobile-based vocabulary learning affected learners’ positive improvement of lexical competence and their own language learning strategies, and motivated them on vocabulary learning. Moreover, the mobile-based vocabulary learning behaviors cultivated independent and self-regulated learning style with the support of technology. As a suggestion of the future study, more data on teachers’ scaffolding behaviors on learning lexical items should be collected and analyzed in order to maximize learners’ successful vocabulary learning.
