Uncovering Students' Extensive Reading Experiences For Vocabulary Mastery
Vocabulary was an essential component of effective communication, both spoken and written, especially in language learning. However, limited vocabulary often posed significant challenges for students. Extensive reading, a learning method that emphasized a wide range of reading experiences, emerged as a promising strategy for improving vocabulary mastery through exposure to various texts. This descriptive qualitative study explored the positive and negative experiences of six English Education students in utilizing extensive reading to enrich their vocabulary. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, analysis of reading logs, and student reflections. The findings showed that extensive reading provided positive experiences by offering opportunities for students to acquire new vocabulary both incidentally (through repetition and contextual variation) and intentionally (through dictionary use and note-taking). Nevertheless, negative experiences such as lack of motivation and time constraints often hindered the learning process. To overcome these issues, participants implemented motivation enhancement and time management strategies. These findings highlighted the importance of combining incidental and intentional learning in vocabulary acquisition through extensive reading, as well as the need for maintaining reading motivation and a regular schedule to enhance learning effectiveness.
