Rush  \nKinki University, Japan [tom.rush.w@gmail.com](tom.rush.w@gmail.com)  \nRegular Paper  \nRecent research has shown that pairedassociate learning is an effective way to acquire second language vocabulary. However, much research in the field has measured small-scale vocabulary learning. This is due to the methods which learners used to conduct paired-associate learning: paper flash cards. This project sought to measure vocabulary growth over one academic year to determine what can be learned through an online flashcard website. Using three groups, one control and two twohour treatment groups, learners completed vocabulary size pretests at the beginning of the study and posttests after one year of weekly online flashcard site use. The gains were statistically significant, and suggest that weekly flashcard site use may increase vocabulary sizes as measured using the Vocabulary Size Test (Nation & Beglar, 2007).  \nintroduction  \nPaired-associate vocabulary learning has long been considered a valuable method to quickly learn large amounts of second language meaning-form relationships (Elgort, 2011) . Paired-associate vocabulary can take different forms such as word lists, paper word cards, and electronic word cards. Traditionally, learners do deliberate study of vocabulary using word cards. Word cards usually have the second language word written on one side and the first language meaning on the other. Learners use the cards to learn and review vocabulary very quickly. However, there are some limitations of paper word cards. To address these issues, educators and researchers use computers to assist learners with learning and  \n79  \nThe jalt call Journal 2013: Regular Papers  \nreviewing new words. This paper examines the learning achieved when using a computer assisted paired-associate learning program.  \nLearners may have many language learning goals: grammatical accuracy, clear pronunciation, pragmatic goals, as well as vocabulary goals. Vocabulary is important because it is the foundation of language competence; as Beglar and Hunt (2005) assert “...vocabulary acquisition is a crucial, and in some senses, the central component in successful foreign language acquisition”(p. 7). A large functional vocabulary enables learners to access a broad range of texts, both spoken and written. Ideally, learners become as functional as native speakers with the second language. Goulden, Nation and Read (1990) suggest that educated native speakers know about 20,000 word families, however, this is a very large number for many second language learners. Therefore, the question of what size vocabulary is necessary for successful performance of second language activity becomes important. Reading, writing, listening and speaking are the four main language performance activities which second language learners do. The vocabulary demands of each skill will depend on the purpose and topic of the language use. Therefore the following section will outline the vocabulary requirements to successfully participate in an academic environment using each skill.  \nLaufer (1989) found that 95% of vocabulary in a written text needs to be known for successful comprehension. Hu and Nation (2000) conclude that around 98% of the words in a text need to be known for both adequate comprehension and also to be able to guess unknown words from context successfully. This 95–98% of vocabulary coverage depends on three factors: 1. the type of text 2. the length of the text and 3. the homogeneity of the text (Nation, 2001). Defining the level of vocabulary control necessary for unassisted reading depends on the ab","cbCainNnAMUl8lwU","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainNnAMUl8lwU","pdf",285619,"English","# Introduction\n## Vocabulary coverage and comprehension thresholds\n## Vocabulary needs across language skills\n## Writing and listening vocabulary demands\n## Vocabulary selection principles (frequency and usefulness)\n## Incidental vs deliberate learning","[{\"question\":\"What learning approach does the study focus on for acquiring second language vocabulary?\",\"answer\":\"The study focuses on paired-associate vocabulary learning, which links meaning-form relationships and is used through flashcard-based word cards.\"},{\"question\":\"How was vocabulary growth measured in the project?\",\"answer\":\"Learners completed vocabulary size pretests at the beginning and posttests after one academic year, using weekly access to an online flashcard website.\"},{\"question\":\"What do the results indicate about using an online flashcard site?\",\"answer\":\"The gains were statistically significant and suggest that weekly use of the online flashcard site can increase vocabulary sizes as measured by the Vocabulary Size Test.\"}]","Vocabulary learning through an online computerized flashcard site - Regular Paper | PDF"]
