It also aimed to explore students’ perceptions toward implementing GOs for vocabulary learning. This study further examined the influence of students’ processes of developing GOs on their vocabulary learning. The participants were 42 students from two intact classes studying in a primary school in North Taiwan. One class was selected to be the control group and the other class was selected to be the experimental group, and both classes were instructed by the same English teacher. The control group, on the one hand, learned their target vocabulary through a conventional learning (CL) approach in which the vocabulary words were taught through English textbooks and the teacher’s PowerPoint presentations. Theexperimental group, on the other hand, learned their target vocabulary words with the help of the GO instruction. During the six-week treatment, several GO patterns (e.g., word maps, word webs, hierarchical, timeline, pyramid, compare and contrast) were introduced to the experimental group (the GO group) to teach the students vocabulary words. In addition, the students also finished an individual project in which they were asked to design their own menus by applying the GO patterns they learned in class. In order to explore the effectiveness of the GO instruction on the students’ vocabulary learning, all the participants in both the CL group and the GO group were required to complete a vocabulary pretest, an immediate posttest, and a delayed posttest which assessed the students’ receptive and productive knowledge of the target vocabulary words. Afterward, ANCOVA and one-way repeated measures ANOVA were used to present the results of the study. As for the students’ perceptions toward the GO instruction, the students in the GO group were also asked to fill out two evaluation surveys, which were given before and after the treatment respectively. Furthermore, with an eye to probing into the students’ development of producing GOs, reflection sheets were handed to the students during the project and a semi-structured interview was adopted after the project. The study further adopted the Bloom’s Taxonomy to analyze the students’ posters, reflection sheets, and the written verbatim of the interview. The results of the study indicated that both the CL group and the GO group showed an improvement in their vocabulary learning, and there was no significant difference between both groups in their immediate posttest. As for the students’ ability to recall vocabulary words after a period of time, compared with the conventional learning group, the GO instruction was found to have a significant effect on students’ vocabulary retention. With respect to the students’ perceptions of using GOs to learn vocabulary words, the study revealed that many students showed a positive change in their attitude toward the GO instruction. Before the treatment, many students disagreed with the fact that using GOs could facilitate their vocabulary learning; however, after six weeks of practicing GOs, the students considered GOs a useful organizational tool to learn and review vocabulary words faster and easier. Most students also deemed it practical and enjoyable to learn vocabulary words through the individual project. Regarding the students’ development of GOs from their projects, the study showed that the students who performed better on vocabulary learning were better at applying correct GOs patterns and organizing the vocabulary words with those patterns while the students who did not perform well on vocabulary learning were unable to apply the GOs to categorize the vocabulary words correctly. Although the study has some limitations regarding the number of participants recruited and the instruments adopted to explore the students’ GOs development, the findings of the study suggest that English teachers should integrate different GO patterns for teaching individual words and reviewing all the words learned during typical English lessons. Additionally, teachers should offer students more opportunities to select and draw their own GO patterns so that GOs can become one of the learning strategies for students to learn and review vocabulary words. In conclusion, it is hoped that the findings of the current study have shed more light on the existing theories behind GOs and SLA research. This study also hopes to offer English teachers more directions to integrate GOs into vocabulary teaching and learning.組織圖單字學習單字長期記憶組織圖創作過程Graphic organizersvocabulary learningvocabulary retentionprocesses of drawing graphic organizers應用組織圖對於提升國小學生英文單字學習之成效The Effect of Using Graphic Organizers on Facilitating Students’ Vocabulary Learning in a Taiwanese Primary School Context
