چکیده

به کارگیری رو به رشد ابزارهای فناورانه در یادگیری زبان، بررسی سودمندی آن‌ها و تعیین میزان تاثیر ویژگی‌های زبان‌آموزان بر اثربخشی‌ آن ها را ضروری میکند. با توجه به این نگرانی‌ها، پژوهش حاضر به دنبال بررسی رابطة بین یادگیری واژگان انگلیسی از طریق تلفن همراه و ویژگی‌های شخصیتی زبان‌آموزان است. شرکت‌کنندگان در این مطالعه 100 زبان‌آموز انگلیسی به عنوان زبان خارجی بودند که در دانشگاه زنجان، ایران به تحصیل زبان انگلیسی مشغول بودند. تعداد 60 اصطلاح زبان انگلیسی از طریق یک کانال تلگرام به مدت 6 هفته و در قالب آموزش زبان به‌ کمک تلفن همراه در اختیار شرکت‌کنندگان قرار گرفت. یک آزمون پیشرفت ،طراحی‌شده توسط محقق، برای ارزیابی یادگیری واژگان زبان‌آموزان از طریق تلفن همراه به اجرا درآمد. مقیاس پنج بزرگ (جان و همکاران 2008) برای سنجش تیپ شخصیتی زبان‌آموزان به کار گرفته شد. تجزیه و تحلیل داده‌ها همبستگی معناداری را بین متغیرها نشان نداد؛ با این حال، رگرسیون چندگانه همزمان، برون‌گرایی را به عنوان پیش‌بینی‌کننده معنادار منحصر به ‌فرد ارائه کرد. نتایج نشان داد که یادگیری زبان به کمک تلفن همراه نه تنها زبان‌آموزان را از محدودیت‌های زمانی و مکانی رها می‌کند، بلکه دخالت احتمالی ویژگی‌های زبان‌آموزان را در فرآیند یادگیری زبان به حداقل می‌رساند. اهمیت یادگیری با استفاده از تلفن همراه در کاهش اثر ویژگی‌های شخصیتی بر یادگیری واژگان توسط دانش‌آموزان دستاوردهای مهمی برای معلمان و دست اندرکاران آموزش به همراه دارد.
