    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Dirección de Posgrado. Maestria en la Enseñanza del Idioma Inglés como Lengua Extranjera, 2018-12) Zambrano Acosta, Elizabeth Jaqueline; Encalada Trujillo, Edgar Guadia
    This research work focused on the vocabulary as the main factor for the English as foreign language learning and production applied to the twelfth and thirteenth BGU levels at Unidad Educativa Cusubamba during the academic year 2017 – 2018. The theoretical framework was centered on Quizlet Application, English teaching technology strategies and tools, ICTs (Information and communication Technologies) in education, English vocabulary, English language levels and components, English language teaching, and learning process. The investigative work was developed through a documentary – bibliographic investigation with a descriptive point of view, based on the quasi-experimental, quali-quantitative paradigm on which a pre-test and post-test were applied to two groups of students. One group was considered the control group and the other the experimental group. As a result, it was possible to identify the students’ deficient English vocabulary level. However, after applying the Quizlet technology tool to the experimental group and evaluating them for the second time, it was possible to appreciate that they undoubtedly developed their English vocabulary level. On the other hand, the students from the control group who continued working with the traditional methods stayed in the same level. Consequently, it was possible to conclude that the integration of Quizlet technology tool in vocabulary learning significantly increased the students’ lexicon level as well as their English language performance.
