Popis: Since English has been deemed a foreign language in Indonesian schools, how EFL students learn and acquire English vocabulary has been a hot topic. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the impact of WLI on Indonesian EFL students’ vocabulary gains and to discover how students feel about the usage of a web-based method in language instruction. Students were randomly assigned to one of two groups: the Experimental group (EG = 30), which used free vocabulary learning webpages on the IELTS English language learning site each day for 12 weeks, and the control group (CG = 30), which got regular classroom teaching every session. This was done to make sure that the groups were homogeneous. By introducing web-based training into the curriculum, it seemed that students perceptions of language acquisition had improved. The findings showed a considerable disparity in vocabularies among EG and CG. The vocabulary of EFL students improved as a result of WBL education. This study results might have some benefits on how languages are taught and learned.
