Teaching

This monograph presents the Integrated Cognitive-based Cooperative Vocabulary Model (IC-CVM), a groundbreaking framework designed to enhance English vocabulary instruction through cognitive engagement and cooperative learning. Grounded in four major educational theories, such as constructivism, differentiated instruction, cooperative learning, and multisensory instruction. IC-CVM offers practical, adaptable strategies for teaching vocabulary in diverse and heterogeneous classrooms. The models feature two interactive sub-models: word webbing, which stimulates semantic mapping and critical thinking, and Fan-n-Pick, which encourages peer collaboration and active language use. Together, these methods support differentiated instruction that aligns with students’ cognitive levels and learning styles. This monograph is a valuable resource for English teachers, language educators, and curriculum developers seeking to implement innovative, inclusive, and research-based vocabulary teaching practices. Through real classroom examples, implementation guides, and reflective insights, readers will gain a clear understanding of how IC-CVM can transform vocabulary learning into a more engaging, effective, and learner-centered experience.
