English, as the lingua franca, is considered a soft skill that every sector, including nursing, needs to focus on to work towards global development. Nursing candidates are expected to be accustomed with terminology and vocabulary related to their major in English. However, the available learning materials are not always suitable for vocational students and their syllabi are often still too general. As a result, many students experience language barriers in understanding specific terminologies and vocabularies within the scope of nursing. This study aimed to develop discipline-specific vocabulary in the form of a visual dictionary for nursing students. The ADDIE model was employed, and questionnaires and interviews were used to gather the data. The findings of this study are expected to support the needs of students related to their major and future career. Keywords: visual dictionary, nursing students, supplementary material  ER -
