Abstract

The development of learning media that is interesting and relevant to the education system in Indonesia, although the ability of learners is a barrier today. Various development efforts are always done to complement the process of material oblivion that has been given. Learning methods and learning media are two things that cannot be ignored. Having English skills will add value in the context of human resources. But in an academic environment, English is a foreign language that needs to be mastered not only in communication but also in terms of technology and science. The increasingly rapid technological development takes part in the learning development system. Many learning media are used to improve the ability of information or science. Furthermore, this study uses learning management system (LMS) as one of the technology media to improve students' vocabulary. The study focuses on the effort to improve vocabulary mastery by using learning management system. The subjects of this study were the second semester students from informatics department, Universitas Kanjuruhan Malang. The results of this study show that the students are easier to understand the vocabulary used in technology informatics fields. It can be seen that the results of their average of final score is 85.00 improved higher than the previous score, before the use of LMS in the teaching vocabulary, the score is 65.00. It is expected that the result of this study can be one of the alternative way to help students understand the vocabulary easily.

Enhancing Vocabulary Memorization and Retention through LMS and MultiEx Game Platforms among Thai Tertiary Students

In terms of LMS and vocabulary acquisition, two previous studies with Indonesian university students by Novitasari et al (2018) and Mustafa et al (2019) have been identified. Both studies supported the effectiveness of LMS as it motivated students to learn vocabulary.…”

Effective or Impractical? Discussing Students' Perceptions toward Learning Management Systems in English Language Learning

“…Teaching English has experienced LMS's involvement in developing language skills and language components. The involvement of LMS in the teaching of productive skills, speaking and writing (Seau & Azman, 2021;Sundari & Leonard, 2021;Truong, 2021) and the receptive skills, listening and reading, has improved learners' mastery (Sulistyanto & Imada, 2020), as well as the mastery on language components (Ivanjko & Grubješi, 2019;Novitasari et al, 2018;Safitri & Lestari, 2021). It is also perceived that the involvement of LMS provides learners with autonomy (Zainuddin et al, 2019) where learners study at their own pace and time availability (Manurung, 2005;Rahman, 2014), the teachers become ICT literate (Omar & Yaacob, 2020), and the institutions provide support to facilitate the language teaching (Lalima & Lata Dangwal, 2017).…”
