The present research aimed at investigating the effect of using electronic mind maps strategy in teaching English on developing vocabulary learning among primary stage pupils. The research adopted the quasi-experimental design with two-groups; a control group that studied English vocabulary using usual teaching methods and an experimental group that studied English vocabulary using an electronic mind maps program. A stratified random sample of eighty fifth-grade pupils were selected from Osama ebn Zaid primary school, Assiut city, Assiut Governorate, to participate in this research and they were divided equally into two groups; an experimental group and a control group. The researcher prepared and used a fifth grade English vocabulary list and pre-post vocabulary learning test. The results revealed a statistically significant difference at (0.01) level between the mean scores of the control and the experimental groups in the post-administration of the vocabulary learning test, favoring the experimental group. The results indicated a positive effect of using electronic mind maps in teaching English to develop vocabulary learning among primary stage pupils. These findings lead to some recommendations and suggestions for further researches to integrate electronic mind maps in teaching English.
