الملخص EN

This research aims at designing an electronic learning environment for learning English vocabulary, and exploring its effectiveness on twelfth grand students’ acquisition of English as a foreign language vocabulary.

To achieve the research objectives, a quasi-experimental design with three groups was used.

The first group used the learning materials via m-learning environment, the second studied the same vocabulary using the same learning method but on paper, and the third group were set on a traditional classroom.

57 twelfth grad students in a 12 grade in Riyadh were assigned into the three groups.

Results showed significant differences between the three groups.

The groups which used the electronic design and paper design acquired the vocabulary higher than the traditional group at the three acquisition levels : recalling, understanding, and applying.

Yet those who studied via the mobile environment acquired the vocabulary higher than the paper group at the recalling and understanding levels.

The research recommended using m-learning in vocabulary acquisition.

It also suggested integrating the m-learning environment with paper learning method stressing the importance of applying good design that take into account the current student English skills as a major factor for success.
