Abstract

The study aims to find out if there is any effect of using Facebook on students' performance in vocabulary development. Vocab-Developer (a Facebook webpage group created by the researcher to implement the experiment to the EG through uploading educational videos and audios, drills and other educational materials) group has been assigned to the experimental group to check the progress of lexical competence while they take the treatment. Whereas the control group students are presented to the traditional way in language teaching. A mixed-methods have been implemented including pretest-posttest design and a questionnaire. After applying the intervention, the researchers found statistically significant differences between the experimental group and the control group in their vocabulary development. This means that the students who took the treatment had better vocabulary development compared with those who were assigned to the traditional way of teaching. It can be inferred that using Facebook in the educational settings can serve as a beneficial and useful device for language learning and teaching.
