A1 Mezied, Sawsan Khalil A2 Keshta, Wafaa Ibrahim AB This study aimed at investigating the effectiveness of using of an electronic environment based on active learning in improving eighth graders' English vocabulary learning. To achieve the study aims, the researchers designed a vocabulary achievement test consisting of (30) items. The sample study consisted of (64) students from Rafah Preparatory B Girls’ School in Rafah Directorate of Education 2017-2018. The electronic environment based on active learning was used in teaching the experimental group (32) students, while the traditional method was used with the control one (32) students in the second term of the school year (2017-2018). The experiment lasted for six weeks. The study findings revealed that there were significant differences at (α = 0.05) in the mean scores of the vocabulary test in favor of the experimental group, there are statistically significant differences at (α = 0.05) in the achievement level in vocabulary between high achievers of the experimental group and their counterparts of the control group. The findings also pointed out that there are statistically significant differences at (α =0.05) in the achievement level in vocabulary between low achievers of the experimental group and their counterparts of the control group. This was attributed to the electronic environment based on active learning in teaching vocabulary. In the light of the study results, the researchers recommended adopting the electronic environment based on active learning in teaching English, enriching the Palestinian English Language curriculum with different activities which enhance learning and practicing English inside and outside the classroom, supplying schools with the necessary equipment for employing electronic learning such as enough computer labs, interactive smart boards, multi-media resources and internet access.
