The study specifically aimed to find out (a) the most and the least frequently used VLS, and (b) the most useful VLS. A total of 105 nursing students who attended a virtual exchange program during the odd semester of 2021/2022 academic year participated in this study. This was ex post facto research which used a vocabulary learning strategy questionnaire to collect the data. To answer research questions, the collected data were analyzed by using SPSS statistics 25.0, including the descriptive statistics. The overall findings revealed that in terms of five categories, determination strategies were reported to be the most frequently used strategies and social strategies were the least ones. In terms of individual strategies, the most frequently used vocabulary learning strategies were using bilingual dictionaries either print or electronic, guessing word meaning through the context, and learning new vocabulary items through vocabulary videos. The least frequent ones were asking the words synonym to the teacher and communicating with native speakers. Furthermore, the participants assumed that using bilingual dictionaries either print or electronic and taking notes of new words as the most useful strategies. Considering the results, both students and lecturers must be more aware of the effective learning strategies to achieve better results.

This research indicates that determination strategies are the most frequently employed by Indonesian virtual exchange students, while social strategies are the least used.The preference for determination strategies is likely due to the independent learning environment and the need for efficient vocabulary acquisition during the virtual exchange program.Furthermore, students recognize the usefulness of bilingual dictionaries and note-taking, suggesting a need for educators to emphasize these strategies.These findings highlight the importance of understanding students preferred learning strategies to optimize their language learning experience in virtual exchange settings.

Based on the findings, future research should investigate the impact of explicit instruction in underutilized strategies, such as social strategies, on students vocabulary acquisition in virtual exchange programs. Additionally, exploring the correlation between students language proficiency levels and their preferred vocabulary learning strategies could provide valuable insights for tailored pedagogical approaches. Finally, a longitudinal study tracking the long-term effects of different vocabulary learning strategies on students overall language competence and intercultural communication skills in virtual exchange contexts would be beneficial. These investigations should consider the unique challenges and opportunities presented by virtual exchange environments, focusing on how to best support students in developing effective vocabulary learning habits and maximizing their language learning potential through collaborative and interactive approaches. Such research will contribute to a more nuanced understanding of vocabulary learning in virtual exchange and inform the development of more effective pedagogical practices.
