Abstract

Technology has significantly assisted ESP vocabulary development and reading comprehension, an aspect confirmed and validated by several research projects. The majority of research has focused on assessment outcomes. However, student input must be addressed to enhance the use of technology and its influence on learning. This study intends to assess the usefulness of technology in this sector in terms of student views, attitudes, and preferences to boost technology acceptance and usage in English vocabulary learning and reading comprehension. 31 students were asked questions about using multimedia tools to learn English. The responses were then compared and examined. The results showed that ESP learners had a good attitude regarding the apps. Furthermore, they prefer to employ a variety of technology instruments.
