learning grammatical concepts and syntax of a targeted language have been a considerable research gap in digital game-based language learning (DGBLL). In particular, the development of a digital game that leverages DGBLL affordances has yet to be done in the context of the Japanese language. This paper aims to develop a digital game that facilitates second language learning of Japanese grammatical concepts based on the N5 and N4 levels of the Japanese language Proficiency Test (JLPT). The resulting digital game, named Bunshiki, is a role-playing game with shoot 'em up elements. It features gameplay mechanics that are consistent with the goal of facilitating Japanese grammar acquisition while leveraging affordances of DGBLL apps and approaches based on the two major philosophies of grammar pedagogy, namely, focus on forms (FonFs) and focus on form (FonF). A quasi-experimental test in the form of pretests and posttests was done to test the effectiveness of the game. Additionally, a usability test: the game User Experience Satisfaction Scale (GUESS-18) was also completed by the participants. The first test has shown an improvement in their level of knowledge on JLPT N5 and N4 grammatical concepts based on the participants' pretest scores and posttest scores. The usability test, meanwhile, boasted above average ratings across most of the categories tested.

Former literature reviews or research syntheses on digital game-based learning have provided important results, but little is known about the use of digital games in specific learning domains, with language education being one fertile area for additional research. While the use of digital games for educational purposes varies in different contexts, understanding the emerging trends of how digital games are currently implemented in language learning can inform both language educators and researchers of game use for learning, and thus help to improve their professional practices. Accordingly, the current review aims to identify emerging trends of digital game-based language learning (DGBLL) articles published during years 2010 to 2014. Major findings of this review indicate that: 1) Only 4% of the articles are identified as related to DGBLL within the reviewed corpus, 2) most DGBLL researchers employed mixed methods, 3) higher education learners were the most frequently examined group of participants in DGBLL studies, 4) English was the target language studied by the majority of DGBLL researchers, and 5) Off-the-shelf digital games, particularly the type of Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing games (MMORPG), are the most commonly implemented games in the DGBLL literature. This review provides a panoramic overview of the trends in DGBLL research and draws attention to areas where there are prominent gaps within the literature.

Incidental L2 pragmatics learning through playing a massively multiplayer online role-playing game

COMPUTER ASSISTED language learning 2025年

作者： Zhang, Ying Univ Utah Dept Linguist 255 Cent Campus Dr Salt Lake City UT 84112 USA

A limited body of research has investigated the influence of playing vernacular games (commercial games that are not designed for educational purposes), such as massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs), on second/foreign language (L2) pragmatics acquisition. Furthermore, prior studies have revealed mixed findings regarding the utility of incidental L2 pragmatics learning through playing MMORPGs in fostering L2 learners' pragmatic competence. By using a pretest-immediate-posttest-delayed-posttest design and employing the interactionist approach, this study explored the effectiveness of playing an MMORPG (World of Warcraft [WoW]) in developing L2 learners' pragmatic competence in making suggestions and further investigated the affordances (target-language input, other players' feedback, L2 output) of playing WoW for L2 pragmatics learning. Intermediate English learners (N = 169) from a college in China played WoW with American players for four weeks. The results of written discourse completion tasks showed that the L2 learners preferred to adopt direct strategies (e.g. obligation statements like "You should & mldr;") for making suggestions in long-social-distance contexts on the pretest. In contrast, they tended to employ indirect strategies (e.g. modal verbs like "could") for providing suggestions in long-social-distance settings on the immediate posttest and the one-month delayed posttest. These findings suggest the advantages and lasting effectiveness of playing WoW in enhancing English learners' L2 pragmatic competence in making suggestions. Possible reasons, such as suggestion-related input and verbal implicit feedback (clarification requests) provided by the American players during gameplay, might have contributed to these L2 learners' improved suggestion-making performance in English.

While the study of serious games has received due attention, few studies have investigated their potentials of simultaneously offering a route to both content and language acquisition. Understanding the interdisciplinary educational affordance of serious game play is significant, as it might provide game designers and teachers with insight into how to best design and implement serious games. In our study, the serious game Saving Lives was used to teach healthcare knowledge and English vocabulary to Iranian nursing students in an experimental group (N = 80), while control group students were taught healthcare knowledge and English vocabulary using traditional methods (N = 80). Using a mixed-methods approach (pre- and post-tests, an open- and closed-ended questionnaire), intentional content learning, incidental vocabulary acquisition, and learners' perceptions of digital game play were investigated. Results showed statistically significant improvement in participants' healthcare knowledge and incidental vocabulary acquisition in the experimental group compared to the control group. Vocabulary and content knowledge gains in the experimental group were the result of students' positive attitudes toward game play, the multimodal contextual clues provided during game play, and repetitive exposure to target words in the game instructions. Using serious games to integrate content and language teaching for specific purposes, such as nursing, was found to be both a viable option for teachers and a preferable medium for fostering students' learning and engagement.

This paper explores the integration of a digital game, Cipher, into language learning. It emphasises the balance between maintaining a playful game approach and ensuring robust pedagogical foundations. Motivating learners, especially for endangered languages (in this case Irish), can be challenging, but digital game-based learning offers an effective solution. The game has evolved via a pragmatic, pedagogically informed, learner-oriented game design approach. The game includes key elements such as levels, power-ups, scoring system and life mechanism all of which are important in maintaining the game ethos, in challenging the player and maintaining interest and to avoid the chocolate-covered broccoli scenario. The game framework, derived from an existing model, is modular and designed to be language independent. This enables the game to be adapted to the local culture, language and context. Crucially, the co-creation process, involving feedback and insights from teachers and learners, has driven the game's refinement through multiple iterations, resulting in enhanced content and features. This semi-agile approach enabled the evolution of the game through various stages to the current iteration, featuring more appropriate texts, improved game components and planned enhancements including AI-generated audio, images, and other innovative features. Cipher serves as a valuable asset for low-resourced languages, fostering inclusivity by catering to individual learning speeds and diverse learner needs. This paper outlines an approach centred on reuse/repurpose, pragmatism, and co-creation, which holds promise for application across various other contexts.

This paper investigates the impact of the classroom uses of a digital hidden object game in which students should match visual objects with their English vocabulary equivalents. The essential features of this game are similar to conventional classroom uses of pictures to help learn new English words, so this study investigates whether playing a hidden object game fosters English vocabulary learning and learning motivation. The 57 subjects studying at a junior high school (i.e. seventh-graders) in Taiwan were carefully assigned to form an experimental (N=28) and control group (N=29) and the only teaching variable between the two groups was controlled by the treatment with or without a hidden object game in class. It is revealed that compared with control group, the students in the hidden object game group significantly outperformed regarding vocabulary recognition. However, even though the experimental group also showed relatively higher learning motivation, there was no significant difference between two modes.

Effects of playing the video game Her Story on multiple dimensions of creativity in EFL writing - An international replication study

引用

RECALL 2023年第2期35卷 193-210页

作者： Huertas-Abril, Cristina A. Muszynska, Barbara Univ Cordoba Cordoba Spain Univ Lower Silesia Wroclaw Poland

This international replication study demonstrates how playing a video game is related to multiple dimensions of creativity in foreign language writing. In this research project, university students were asked to interact with a commercial murder mystery video game, Her Story, and produce a piece of creative writing, which was a replication with a new data collection of the original study by Lee (2019). The reason for using this digital game was to provide an authentic learning opportunity for students and analyze whether digital game-based learning facilitates creativity in EFL writing. This replication, involving 25 university students from Poland and 25 university students from Spain, is a media transfer study based on the students transforming one media format (video game) into another (writing). The results demonstrate that the use of a video game with an ambiguous storyline prompts discovery (specific curiosity) and could be the determining factor for producing original, quality ideas in writing even when holding a negative view of one's creativity. The findings also indicate that the choice of genre and a viewpoint in writing may influence the level of elaboration in the texts produced by students.

Technological progress has enhanced classroom gamification in a number of learning contexts. Kahoot! as a digital game-based learning platform is being increasingly integrated into teaching environments to facilitate effective classroom learning. The research focused on Chinese students' perceptions of using Kahoot! in classroom teaching in order to ascertain whether games can contribute to students' classroom learning and how it works. Eighty freshmen students from an international university in mainland China participated in this research. All of them completed an anonymous questionnaire and thirteen students were selected for a face-to-face interview. The results indicated that Chinese students perceive Kahoot! as a useful game-based application that can enhance learning motivation, classroom engagement, learning effectiveness and classroom interaction. Therefore, it is suggested that teachers may use Kahoot! as a facilitator to support learners' EFL learning. The findings of the study are of relevance to the teaching pedagogy not only in the Chinese higher education context but also in extended circumstances where learners tend to sit and listen rather than interact and communicate.

RECALL 2019年第3期31卷 238-254页

作者： Lee, Sangmin-Michelle Kyung Hee Univ Global Commun Seoul South Korea

This qualitative study investigates a media transfer project in which a digital game was used to promote student creativity in an English as a foreign language (EFL) class. The paper first addresses the potential of opportunities for stimulating student creativity and motivation. Creativity has been highlighted as a core competency and has garnered considerable interest in many fields in recent years;however, creativity and creative writing are rarely cultivated in EFL writing classrooms. This study uses a digital game and designs a creative writing project to provide an authentic learning opportunity through which students were able to develop their creativity, use the target language in a meaningful way, and enjoy learning. A murder mystery game, Her Story, was selected because it provides a springboard for creative writing due to its fragmented and ambiguous narrative. based on the game plot, 25 Korean university students reimagined the narrative in creative writing projects of their own. The study analyzes the students' writing according to three constructs in Torrance's model of creativity: originality, flexibility, and elaboration. The results demonstrate how the students' writing exhibits considerable creativity in all three constructs. Student reflection papers and surveys indicate that participating in the project enhanced the students' motivation for and engagement in learning.
