The Flip Chart to enhance EFL learners’ vocabulary
This research aimed to analyze the effectiveness of the flipchart to improve the vocabulary of English as a foreign language for students between 10 and 12 years old in the El Carmen La FAE neighborhood. The problem of this research was the monotonous use of the blackboard, generating low performance in the student's acquisition of vocabulary in the English language. The researcher used a mixed approach and a quasi-experimental method. The population was students aged 10-12 years from the El Carmen La FAE neighborhood, with level A1 in English, at the 2024-2025 academic level. Participants were selected through convenience sampling, aimed at accessible people in the area, consisting of 15 students. Multiple choice questions helped to collect data for pre test and post test. The research results demonstrated that the flip chart combined with the ERCA method proved an effective and dynamic tool for teaching vocabulary. The previously analyzed literature also helped with information for the correct implementation of the teaching resource with the following scores obtained in the pre test without the flip chart at 64% and after with the flip chart in the post test at 97%. Furthermore, the application of the flip chart had a significant improvement of 33.12% and a maximum score of 100%.
