ASSIGNMENT 1 (individual)
Research Title: The effects of extensive reading to promote vocabulary learning of the FFL's
freshman at IUH.
CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION (300 - 500 words)
1.1. Rationale

In practically every industry, Vietnam is now attempting to integrate into the global market.
English is regarded as an excellent communication tool all over the world in order to achieve
long-term collaboration. In this context, the use of English as a second language by
Vietnamese people, particularly students, is becoming increasingly vital. In reality, many
Vietnamese youngsters now have early access to English, and many of them select English as
their future job.

That seems to be a positive indicator for our country at this time. However, many English
majors have insufficient vocabulary, which has a direct impact on the ability to learn and
communicate. Vocabulary is an essential aspect that connects the four language skills and
plays the most crucial role in foreign language learning, it is regarded the biggest obstacle for
students majoring in English. Students must learn an adequate amount of words and know
how to use them correctly and appropriately to communicate effectively in a foreign
language.

In this regard, we chose to do research on the issue of " The effects of extensive reading to
promote vocabulary learning of the Faculty of Foreign Language's freshman at Industrial
University of Ho Chi Minh City ." The goal of this project is to obtain a better knowledge of
1
the issues that English majors may encounter in their learning process and to come up with
practical ways to help them increase their vocabulary.

1.2. Research Objectives

- The general objective is to test and evaluate the vocabulary of the freshmen English majors
at the Industrial University of Ho Chi Minh City.

-The specific objectives of the study are:

+To more profoundly understand about difficulties that English-majored freshmen may
encounter in their learning process.

+To find out the solutions to help English-majored freshmen enhance their vocabulary

1.3. Research Questions

-What is the extensive reading?
- What are the positive of improving English-majored freshmen’s vocabulary through
extensive reading?
- What are the negative of improving English-majored freshmen’s vocabulary through
extensive reading?
- What solutions to learn vocabulary effectively through extensive reading?
1.4. Scope of the study

To achieve the aims of the study, we need 200 freshmen studying English language major, in
the Faculty of Foreign Language at Industrial University of Ho Chi Minh City to participate
in our investigation. They may come from different classes and their ages are from 18 to 20
years old. In addition, we also need to invite 2 teachers working here to take part in the
research.
For the research methodology, a questionnaire including 15 questions is prepared and given
to participants on hard copies or online (Microsoft Forms). Then, we collect and summarize
all responses to find out the popular problems and give solutions for these.
Another methodology used in this paper is interview. This aims to get more ideas to find out
practical and suitable solutions that help students improve their vocabulary.
