Effect of Computer-Mediated Technology on Vocabulary Skills at Elementary Level

Abstract

This paper aims to investigate the impact of CMT (Computer-Mediated Technology) on the vocabulary skills of ESL learners at the Elementary level. Computer technology is used in education worldwide, but in Pakistan, no attention is given to CMT for education purposes. In his study, it has been examined that if CMT is helpful in the Pakistani context. Two groups were managed at the elementary level to conduct this study. The first group is the control group and the second group was the experimental group. The Control group was taught through the traditional method of teaching, whereas the experimental group was taught through CMT. Pre-tests and Post-tests were conducted before the teaching process and after teaching. It was noted that the experimental group's performance was much better than that of the control group. So, it is explored that CMT has a positive impact on the vocabulary skills of ESL learners at the elementary level, and the use of CMT must be encouraged.
