摘要：This paper focuses on whether computer technologies could help to create a betterlearning environment for FL vocabulary learners in China, activating their utilizationof various vocabulary learning strategies and thereby enhancing self-directedvocabulary learning (SDVL). A vocabulary learning system called LearningVocabulary In Domain was developed especially for this research purpose. In thejudgmental analysis, students’ satisfaction levels to the vocabulary learning conditionsunder the computer-based mode and paper-based mode were statistically comparedand discussed. As a result, the CALL mode was more favorable to the students duringtheir self-directed learning. The superiority of CALL was further reinforced by theempirical analysis of comparing the students’ vocabulary performances under the twolearning modes
