THE ROLE OF DIGITAL MEDIA IN IMPROVING VOCABULARY OF YOUNG LEARNERS AT SCHOOL LEVEL

Abstract

Any language, and English in particular, relies heavily on a strong vocabulary to
ensure fluency. For many Indian students, English is a tough language in which to
communicate effectively, and as a result, they struggle to find the right words to
convey themselves when they talk. As a consequence, many Indian students are afraid
to speak English in front of others. Conversely, a strong vocabulary may provide
pupils the self-assurance they need to begin communicating fluently in English. As a
result, enhancing the pupils' vocabulary is an essential aspect of teaching English.
Vocabulary building via digital media has the potential to be a formidable tool in the
toolbox of language instructors everywhere. In light of this, this study explores how
digital media may be used to help students at the high school level improve their
vocabulary via reading and writing in the classroom.
