ABSTRACT. This study aims to unearth whether extensive reading can help university students on the development of
vocabulary. Two research groups - the experimental group who has read more materials chosen by the researchers apart from
in-class readings (95 minutes for class activities and 40 minutes for extensive reading) over the period of 10 weeks and the
control group who has absorbed classroom activities only - involved in the experiment. The results, which were collected
from three methods of test, observation and interview to evaluate the vocabulary gains of the participants, showed that an
improvement on vocabulary of the both groups was found but the experimental group performed their use of vocabulary
range in reading, writing, and speaking better than that in the control group.

Extensive reading is; moreover, designed to replicate
difficulties that students may experience in reading activity
and materials together with their attitudes towards the
differences between intensive and extensive reading.
Furthermore, with extensive reading conducted, it is a
substantial chance to explore whether the extensive reading
usage can bring excellent outcomes on glossary
enhancement to university students. The research is among
a minor number of studies of applied extensive reading
occurring at the university level.
On deliberation of the abovementioned facts the authors
have attempted to deal with answers to the following two
research questions:
1. To what extent can extensive reading be regarded as
an effective treatment for students’ vocabulary
enlargement?
1. INTRODUCTION
Teaching skills in learning the English language is a great
art which needs great approaches. It is obvious that gaining
a certain amount of vocabulary is the most crucial in foreign
language learning in general and in English in particular. In
fact, Boutorwick et al. (2019) highlighted that reading and
vocabulary are reciprocal.
The author of the article claimed that learners would feel
less stressed to comprehend the passages in the texts
because of knowing a lot of vocabulary. If not, the learners
fail to understand the texts fully.
Actually, it is the authors’ contention that the
insufficiency of vocabulary leads to bad outcome of all
language skills on L2 (second language) learners acceptance
of L2, for they fail to create L2 successfully. To deal with
the fact of shortage of vocabulary, the researchers came to a
daring choice of uniting extensive reading in the current
curriculum with the expectation of supporting learners’
vocabulary development efficiently, resulting in better
communication in four language skills in EFL.
There are abundant amounts of varied explanations of
extensive reading (ER) approved by many researchers.
However, a stimulating summary of ER made by Waring
and McLean (2015) showed that extensive reading involved
in the understanding of a large variety of texts with the aim
of meaning.
2. What remarkable differences, if any, do extensive
reading and intensive reading have in the influence on
students’ vocabulary improvement?

Nation (2015) claims that learners’ vocabulary can be
absorbed day after day through extensive reading if learners
have an opportunity to dive in words in various texts.
Undeniably, he confidently assumes that the unfamiliar
words become at ease with learners as a result of numerous
contacts in simplified materials for ages. Through his study,
we have acquired the way to facilitate our learners in
indoctrinate tons of words that they have met over and over
in their reading.
Hemmati and Asmawi (2015) figured out that the
acquisition of vocabulary occurred considerably with the
help of reading the graded reader among Iranian EFL
learners, A Little Princess. These authors unearthed that the
participants performed word knowledge of guessing
meaning from the contexts well.
Liu and Zhang (2018) concluded that extensive reading
and intensive reading groups make the same advancement on
the achievement to comprehend, enhance reading
promptness and possess essential words. Nevertheless, great
interests and enthusiasm toward the extensive reading
activities are shown among the extensive reading partakers
even though they were required to finish their materials
(Graded Readers and story books) under the environments of
time constraints (one term) and the absence of reading
competences.
Tan (2016) suggests that vocabulary knowledge can be
both purposely and incidentally learned via broad reading.
This paper is unquestionably true to Vietnamese learning
background, in which language learners are often disposed
to “engraving” vocabulary by referring to dictionaries
deliberately rather than examining words thoroughly.
Chang and Hu (2018) agree that extensive reading permits
students at a higher competency to gain more vocabulary
scope and depth than intensive reading usage. Learners at
minor compacity have a trend to be teacher-dependent in the
acquisition of lexical items as a result of intensive reading.
This is obvious why the junior students engaged in this
research.
of tricky words.
Nonetheless, the students showed serious struggles with
technical lexical items because of the shortage of both
adequate reading approaches and vocabulary capacity. They
passively read as a result of scarceness in technical terms in
readings.
3.1.2 Significance of the study
Upon completion, the research is wished to harvest petty
paybacks in both the teaching and learning of reading in
particular and four skills in general for some reasons:
First, the study will be a model addition to inadequate
suggestions on extensive reading in Vietnam, offering those
of extensive reading
who are concerned with the same zone
with a stimulating perception for the sakes of it and
considering as a study reference source of reading for
interested scholars.
Moreover, the researchers expect to draw attraction from
other lecturers and the School Board’s consideration to the
necessity of some more practical activities given to students
outside the classroom, particularly reading. Students are
able to be in favor of picking their reading texts, receive
more useful approaches on reading and captivate the
benefits of extensive reading. The above decisive evidence
can grow into good references for the lecturers and the
School Board so that a few changes on the current syllabus
of courses or at least on some unnecessary contents of
reading lessons are officially made.
Lastly, the authors hopefully believe that extensive
reading will be a part of learner-centered activity. The
success of extensive reading, in fact, must be totally reliant
on students who play the most vital role in the extensive
additional reading activities due to the fact that they are the
ones who select what materials to read and how these
materials are going to be read, leading to the self-awareness
of prolongation of reading beyon classrooms together with
traditional classroom study.
To be more specific view of the above discoveries, the
authors recognize the common employment of extensive
reading in assistance of gaining words among ESL and EFL
learners. Although it is quite tough to find some materials for
conducting research of reading in Vietnam, the authors
fortunately found out two studies from Truong (2018) and
Tran (2018) who are additional supplements of our paper.
They presume that the terminology development of the
learners goes well day after day owing to the application of
extensive the process of teaching and learning language
skills, especially vocabulary.
3.1.3 Research procedure
To maintain the objectivity and
information for analysis, the research was conducted in
compliance with the following procedure:
a multitude of
Reading materials for the first cycle of an action research
process
In addition to the main New Cutting-edge textbook for
intermediate students prepared by Sarah and Jonathan
(2017), nine out of forty cautiously-selected genuine
reading texts extracted from the Vietnam News were used
as additional texts. These everyday texts perform to provide
to the students a real chance of language use has never been
done before, inspiring them to have great enthusiasm in
reading the texts.
3. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
3.1 Action research
3.1.1 Rationale
The researchers are working as permanent lecturers at
Lac Hong, teaching four skills – listening, speaking,
reading, and writing. In 2019-2020 academic year, they
were appointed to teach four skills of the communicative
program for the third-year students of Mechatronics-
Electronics Faculty majors and they found that most of
students failed to communicate well in English due to
vocabulary shortage. It was compulsory for the students to
read a remarkable number of English texts from their
learning materials, which was estimated as a huge amount
Research time-frame
The 15-week reading unit per semester was set in the
academic year of 2019-2020 in which the first ten weeks was
for conducting class research reading sessions; meanwhile,
the rest five weeks was for revision and learning with
teacher’s notes on how the results of the research could be
implemented for further study. In other words, the research
took place in just 10 weeks of the 15-week course. Details
were listed as follows:

between two groups. In addition to discovering the answer
to research question 1, observation of sum-ups and essays
may support the researchers in searching part of the answers
to research question 2.
3.3.3 Interview
3.2 Participants
Eight of the participants (four with good marks and the
rest with bad ones) were requested to take part in the
interview for the purpose of figuring out the results of
research question 2. The interview session was recorded and
interpreted.
The setting in which the study was conducted is at Lac
Hong University (LHU), the earliest university in Dong Nai
Province, Vietnam. In LHU, the non-English major students
come across many problems with reading skills due to the
insufficiency of indispensable vocabulary. Accordingly,
integrating extensive reading in the syllabus serves the
purpose of assisting students with the improvement of their
lexical items as well as aid them to deal with reading L2
materials in terms of less struggle and triumph.
The participants were 80 third-year non-English major
students in the academic year of 2019-2020 at Mechatronics-
Electronics Faculty. The participants are all male students
aged between 20-22. They were accidentally designated on
the basis of obtainability and accessibility with forty
partaking in the experimental group and the rest in the
control group. No experiential evidence or test results or
consciousness of their individual vocabulary improvement
will be taken into thought at the beginning of the experiment.
All the partakers in the paper are at the intermediate level
because they become more flexible and teacher-independent
and receive the benefits of intensive and extensive reading
(Zimmerman, 1997).
3.4 Data analysis
In order to discover the differences between the pre-test
and post-test scores, a comparison tool is obviously
necessary. For a trustworthy analysis of the marks from the
data, Microsoft Office Excel 2016 is the selected technique
for analyzing. With the hope that the results of the research
reveal how differently the student’s vocabulary improve
thanks to extensive reading, computing descriptive statistics
of content and mechanics has to be processed based on mean,
standard deviation (SD), t-test. Moreover, the data attained
by portfolio observation were investigated in terms of
percentage and clearly presented in table below followed by
the explanation of the details. Lastly, the data gathered from
the interview was transcribed and classified into two
categories: students’ attitudes and purposes.
4. FINDINGS AND DISCUSSION
4.1 Findings
3.3 Data collection instruments
Data from the tests
The researchers hold to a strong belief in linking
quantitative and qualitative methods to guarantee the validity
and reliability of data collection; therefore, triangulation is
exploited in action research study because “another way that
researchers minimize ambiguity in their findings is by using
triangulation” (Hinchey, 2008, p. 76). In fact, the use of
triangulation involves in lots of methods to reflect one aspect
of the research, leading to deeper and more consistent
understanding on the topic.
The results gained from the pre-test and post-test scores
were put into comparison through t-test in order to answer
research question 1. Table 2 shows the explicit information
on scores of both groups.

the maximum mark was 10. 50 questions in 4 reading texts
were made. And the participants had to choose 1 among the
4 options as the most exact answer to score 0.2 mark. The
pre-test was given on week 1 of the extensive reading
conduct and the post-test week 9. A large number of difficult

They also believed that the use of extensive reading
technique for this semester was really a great action.
Nonetheless, all of them declared that the lecturers should
not ask them to read too much and allow them to pick up
reading materials in accordance with their comforts or
benefits. And more significantly, Nguyet assumed: “I think
the lecturers should help us to choose or they can
recommend reading texts with enough and interesting
information to keep us interested in reading more materials
in English”

I’m lazy to read but I prefer paying more emphasis on
practicing listening and speaking English rather than
reading extensively.”

reached about 50% of vocabulary range; meanwhile, the
experimental group consummated nearly 70%. There was a
vivid enhancement of vocabulary range on writing

to question 1; that is, extensive reading will help learners

5. Do you think learners of different purposes will lead

Time limitation should be taken into consideration as a
problematic issue of the study. The study was carried out
over a 10-week period, making the authors stressed to meet
the school curriculum and generate more novel ideas for the

and beyond, the study addressed a small number of partakers
(80), so forthcoming study with a large number of partakers
is recommended to authenticate the research discoveries.
Not many references on vocabulary growth via extensive
reading were found in Vietnam, creating for the researchers
a problem of finding resources supporting their ideas on the
thesis. The authors also spent a lot of time on producing and
designing extensive reading activities in order to encourage
students to enjoy.

shown that extensive reading facilitated students in
broadening their vocabulary knowledge. It completely

extensive reading with the blending of traditional instruction
(intensive reading) will be more effective in assisting
students in widening their vocabulary.
Implications
Secondly, lecturers who plan to conduct extensive reading
in their classroom should let their students have the right to
select extra reading materials in terms of their desires,
interests, and heights.
Thirdly, it is not desirable to request students to complete
many drills or tests after they finish reading the materials.
Finally, students should be stimulated to read the texts as
quickly as possible for over-all understanding as well as
speed reading enhancement.
Some strengths of the innovation were found in this study.
First, both the researchers and their students got benefits
from the innovation attained by the study. In fact, both the
researchers and their learners were in need for a new change
that blows away boring reading lessons owing to an obsolete
teaching and learning method as well as students’ vocabulary
shortage.
Second, an outward design and rationale set at the
beginning together with a free collection of texts make the
partakers available with great opportunities to have the best
comparison of intensive reading and extensive reading.
Third, the learners found the summarizing activities
