insights into learner engagement and strategy use. Statistical analyses such as
                   ANOVA,  t-tests,  and  regression  models  are  applied  to  examine  differences
                   between  groups  and  identify  significant  gains  in  vocabulary  knowledge.
                   Qualitative data, when collected, are coded thematically to explore learners’
                   perceptions and experiences related to the tasks.
               4.  Task-Based  Vocabulary  Learning.  The  effectiveness  of  task-based  learning
                   strategies  in  vocabulary  acquisition  has  been  well-documented  in  applied
                   linguistics     research.     Task-based       learning      emphasizes        meaningful
                   engagement  with  language  through  purposeful  activities,  encouraging
                   learners  to  actively  process  vocabulary  within  relevant  contexts  rather  than
                   passively  receive  definitions.  This  approach  has  been  shown  to  deepen
                   learners’  understanding  of  target  words  and  their  lexical  networks,  thereby
                   enhancing  retention  and  productive  use.  One  common  and  effective
                   application involves incorporating exercises immediately following a reading
                   task..
                   Example of Task-Based vocabulary exercises following a reading task.
                   Suppose students read an authentic short article about climate change that
            includes target vocabulary such as mitigation, emission, sustainable, resilient, and
            biodiversity. The teacher might design a series of exercises like the following:
                   1. Matching Exercise (Lexical Features Focus):  Match each target word with its
            definition, a synonym, or an example sentence.
                   - Mitigation
                   a) The act of making something less severe;
                   b) An increase in something harmful;
                   c) The use of fossil fuels.
                   2.  Collocation  Identification:    Identify  words  from  the  reading  that  naturally
            collocate  with  the  target  vocabulary.  For  example,  phrase  pairs  like  “carbon
            emissions,” “sustainable development,” or “resilient communities.”
                   Students underline or highlight these collocations in the text, then use them
            to create their own sentences.
                   3. Sentence Completion with Context Clues: Fill in blanks within meaningful
            sentences using the target words.
                   - “The government has implemented new policies aimed at _____ greenhouse
            gas emissions.”
                   - “Protecting _____ is vital for maintaining ecological balance.”
                   In  addition  to  text-centered  tasks,  “pictorial  representations”  or  “dual
            annotations” enhance vocabulary learning by providing visual context that supports
            comprehension and memory. For instance, accompanying the word “emission” with
            an  image  of  factory  smoke  rising  into  the  sky  helps  learners  form  a  clear  mental
            association. Dual annotations might include the word, its definition, a picture, and an
            example sentence all on one card or digital flashcard.
                                                                           11

                   RESULTS AND PREDICTIVE RESULTS
                   Studies examining the effectiveness of task-based learning strategies following
            reading  tasks  consistently  demonstrate  significant  improvements  in  vocabulary
            acquisition among ESL learners. Quantitative data from pre- and post-tests reveal
