Abstract
Employing a descriptive survey design, this study explored the implementation of the Lexical Approach (LA) by Thai tertiary EFL teachers in the state universities in the upper Northeast of Thailand. It sought to answer the research questions on whether the teachers implemented the LA or not, and if yes, to what extent. 140EFL teachers chosen by convenient sampling from 9 state universities in 8 provinces in the region took part in the study. A close-ended questionnaire with a 4-point-Likert rating scale was used to collect the data which were then analyzed for descriptive statistics using an SPSS program. The results revealed that the teachers did implement the LA, but the implementation was at a medium level. The results were discussed in relation to the time-consuming and arduous nature of the LA, indicating its narrow popularity. Implications for further implementing the LA in an EFL classroom setting and recommendations for future research were provided.
