Keywords:
demic vocabulary, using intermediate and upper-intermediate vocabulary, strategies, advanced vocabulary.words:Abstract
In light of these insights provided by developing writers, the following applications are proposed to raise learner awareness and provide meaningful and engaging practice. Though they have been designed in light of the needs and goals of learners preparing to enter the university, some are relevant to other populations, such as international students already pursuing a degree in an English-speaking country and high school students. For learners in matriculated classes, the extent to which they are able to make use of these techniques may depend on their instructors and their own ability and motivation to work autonomously. A wide range of activities and games are highly recommended to help learners develop academic vocabulary use in all four skills.
