The Important of Vocabulary
Learning
Adequate vocabulary knowledge is crucial for
language proficiency and academic success.
However, many high school students struggle to
acquire the extensive and complex vocabulary
required.
This literature review examines the effectiveness of
Digital Extensive Reading Programs (DERP) in
enhancing vocabulary learning among senior high
school students.
 The Role of Vocabulary in
Language Proficiency
Vocabulary acquisition plays a crucial role in
language proficiency and academic success. A rich
vocabulary helps students comprehend academic
texts, express ideas clearly in writing and speech,
and prepare them for higher education and future
careers.
However, many high school students struggle to
acquire the extensive and complex vocabulary
required.
 The Benefits of Extensive
Reading
Extensive reading, defined as reading large
quantities for general meaning, has long been
regarded as an effective approach to vocabulary
development.
Research has shown that extensive reading
contributes to steady, long-term vocabulary growth.
 The Integration of Digital
Technology
The integration of digital technology into extensive
reading programs offers innovative opportunities to
engage students in meaningful and personalized
vocabulary learning experiences.
Digital extensive reading programs leverage the
accessibility and interactive capabilities of digital
platforms to engage students in reading activities
that are both extensive and varied.
 Key Components of DERP

Digital reading materials, digital platforms, tracking

and monitoring, and interactivity and engagement
