Introducción: Deficiencias en vocabulario constituye una barrera importante para dominar el inglés, lo cual conlleva desafíos en la comunicación. La tecnología apoya y facilita el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje, especialmente en la adquisición de un idioma. Por ello, esta investigación investiga el impacto de la plataforma Educaplay en la adquisición de vocabulario en inglés de alumnos de secundaria en Ecuador. Metodología: Se aplicó un diseño cuasi-experimental, con 60 estudiantes de secundaria, seleccionados mediante muestreo intencional. Los instrumentos fueron un pretest, un postest, una lista de verificación de observación y actividades de vocabulario. La significancia se midió con t-student y ANOVA. Resultados: Educaplay demostró ser una herramienta tecnológica efectiva para la retención y mejora del vocabulario, como lo indica el valor p de 4.86e-15 y el valor F (49.000) y los valores p (0.000). Discusión: La implementación de actividades interactivas y atractivas con Educaplay y la guía del docente, permitió a los participantes incrementar su vocabulario y comprender cuándo y cómo usar las diferentes palabras, además de la escritura. Conclusión: Los participantes mejoraron su competencia en vocabulario e incrementaron su motivación para estudiar este idioma. Además, la incorporación de Educaplay en el aula promovió un entorno de aprendizaje productivo e interactivo.
