        ثابت شده است که بازی های آنلاین در افزایش نرخ یادگیری زبان تاثیرگذار هستند. بسیاری از جنبه های زبان در پرتو بازی های آنلاین مورد بررسی قرار گرفته، اما واژگان به اندازه کافی در سطوح مختلف مهارت در نظر گرفته نشده است. بنابراین، مطالعه حاضر با هدف بررسی تاثیر بازی های آنلاین بر تقویت واژگان زبان آموزان جوان زبان انگلیسی انجام شد. بدین منظور، در پی یک طرح آزمایشی واقعی، نمونه ای متشکل از هشتاد دانش آموز دختر و پسر در پژوهش شرکت کردند. به طور تصادفی به دو گروه کنترل و آزمایش تقسیم شدند. با استفاده از آزمون OPT همگن شدند. سپس، با استفاده از آزمون آنلاین واژگان، از قبل مورد آزمایش قرار گرفتند. سپس گروه گواه با استفاده از روش های سنتی کتاب درسی و نگارش و گروه آزمایش با استفاده از بازی آنلاین BINGO تحت آموزش قرار گرفتند. پس از آن، گروه ها از طریق یک آزمون آنلاین واژگان دیگر پس آزمون قرار گرفتند. نمرات وارد نرم افزار SPSS شده و آمار توصیفی محاسبه و آزمون t اجرا شد. نتایج نشان داد که گروه آزمایش در تسلط بر واژگان مشخص شده از گروه کنترل بهتر عمل کرد و بین دو گروه تفاوت قابل توجهی وجود داشت. این مطالعه پیامدهایی برای معلمان، طراحان برنامه درسی و دانش آموزان دارد.  Manuscript profile
