To discover whether digital flashcards are a suitable and effective way of promoting vocabulary learning among Omani GFP students, the study investigated the effects of digital flashcard use on independent vocabulary learning and student perceptions of digital flashcard use, and whether designing flashcards using intralingual or interlingual strategies had any effect on learning. It was a quasi experimental study that employed mixed methods of research, gathering quantitative data using a pretest/posttest design and gathering qualitative data through interviews over a seven-week period. The findings of the study revealed that having Anki as a resource did not have a significant impact on vocabulary learning. However, despite their low usage, participants' opinion of Anki as a learning tool were largely positive.
