Abstract | As a public basic course, College English in higher vocational colleges nowadays is faced with many problems like students’ low quality and lack of interest in English. Vocabulary learning, as a crucial part in College English, is especially obsessed by such problems. Considering the limited time in class, the low efficiency of learning and the increasingly popularization of portable electronic devices and smart phone, it is urgent to carry out a new pattern of vocabulary learning based on mobile micro learning to solve these problems. Thus, this study attempts to combine vocabulary learning in higher vocational colleges and mobile micro learning, design and carry out several mobile learning platforms, and find out the best ways to apply these mobile platforms to class teaching and to improve students’ interest in English learning and raise their scores. The author hopes that this study will realize the wider promotion and application of this pattern. Introduction Nowadays, the rapid development of Internet, the wide promotion of intelligent terminal and the increasingly rich learning resources greatly promote the development of mobile micro learning, as a newly emerging learning pattern. Recently, the Internet Plus Initiative boosts the development of Internet education, which starts a trend of the combination of technology and education. More and more teachers apply the mobile micro learning pattern into class teaching, especially in vocabulary teaching and learning. [1] However, confined by kinds of reasons, English teaching in higher vocational colleges nowadays has difficulty in improving class teaching, reforming class teaching and promoting experimental results. According to some research data, in more than two thirds of the class time, teachers focus on the transfer of the knowledge in textbooks and then check students’ recitation by exercise and quiz. Thus, the reformation of English teaching in vocational colleges is imperative. It is the same with the application of mobile terminal and the improvement of students’ ability of mobile learning. And the reformation of traditional English vocabulary learning should follow this trend. Based on the similarities among network platform, social platform, audiovisual technology, vocabulary learning in mobile library and mobile micro learning in this study, they can all adopt this learning pattern. Hence, this study attempts to find out how to make students read the required texts in fixed time and how to keep their long-term vocabulary mobile learning. [2]The author hopes that the research on the study situation of students adopting mobile micro learning pattern is theoretically and practically important to improve their learning outcome and meet their learning needs. Mobile micro learning Definition of mobile micro learning Mobile micro learning, a newly emerging learning pattern, combines mobile learning and micro learning and embraces advantages of both patterns. It means that learners can take fragmented learning in their fragment time by virtue of mobile terminal.
