This research aimed to find out whether ghost definition is effective or not in teaching vocabulary at the first semester of FPBS IKIP Mataram in academic year 2013/2014”. The research design used was experimental research by using post-test design only. The population of this research was 80 students, which consist of 3 classes. Then, the researcher took only 2 classes or 52 students as the sample. In collecting the data, the researcher used the data obtained from the posttest given after treatment. By analyzing the data, researcher can find out the differences between the result of post-test of the control group and the experimental group before and after the treatment. The analysis of results may be subdivided into descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. The finding show that the mean score of experimental group was higher than control group (X1 73.28 > X2 62.66) while, the score of t-test was 2.16 and t-table was 2.00856 (t-test 2.16 > t-table 2.00856) with 50 degree of freedom and the confidence level of 0.05%. Thus, conclusion of this research showed that ghost definition was effective in teaching English vocabulary. It can be concluded that the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted. Based on the findings, it is suggested that the lecturer expected to apply ghost definition in teaching English vocabulary at any time and then the students always practice to be more active in memorizing new words.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of memory strategies (MSs)in improving students' ability to recall and spell newly learned vocabulary items. The researcheronly considered three types of MSs: grouping, placing new words in to a context and structuredreviewing. In addition, the study used a questionnaire that explored students' attitudes towardsMSs in general, and towards the specific MSs that they have been trained to use, as well as therelationship between MSs and motivation and between MSs and anxiety. intact groups (63 students in total) were selected from level three of the College of Languages and Translation (COLT) at King Saud University (KSU), Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The two groups were assigned to the experimental group (36 students) and the control group(27students). The control group received traditional instruction that depended on the textbook without any MS training, whereas the experimental group received a combination of traditional instruction and MS training. A pre- and post-test were administered to both groups before and after the experiment to examine students' ability to recall the meaning of vocabulary items and their ability to spell them correctly. The experiment lasted for fourteen weeks through which the participants received seven MS training sessions. The study found out that MS training was effective in improving students' ability to recall the meaning of vocabulary items when needed and their ability to spell them correctly. Moreover, the results showed that the subjects of the experimental group showed positive attitude towards MSs and most of them agreed on the positive effect that MSs had on raising their motivation and reducing their anxiety while learning vocabulary.
