Due to lack of English language proficiency being the primary reason for lots of form one students poor writing scores it may also lead to further complicated problems like weak in vocabulary knowledge. In current education environment learners in Malaysia face learning challenges mainly because they lack vocabulary, that is, they fail to acquire and comprehend words in English.To explain further that majority of form one students perceive vocabulary learning as boring especially by students who highly depend on digital usage.(Umazah 2009). Furthermore in a study, when lower secondary students were requested to choose their favoured learning English skills, vocabulary learning was one of the least preferred among the students list (Teh Chee Seng, 2004). Moreoever,form one students with poor or limited vocabulary in English are more likely to be unable to express their thoughts and ideas in their Descriptive essays.
Hence to motivate our learners to improve their vocabulary I used technology integrated teaching and it worked. I would love to share my resources with teachers. My resources are some websites that provide good vocabulary materials to guide and assist teachers in teaching and learners in learning.
