| Abstract |
ROLL-A-GRAM is a game project which is developed as a teaching tool to
help in the teaching of Grammar topics, specifically Parts of Speech -
Adjectives and Adverbs to students at beginner level. Elements of
competition, rewards and instant feedback provide a fun and interactive
environment for students to learn more about these topics. This helps to
reduce anxiety among students as many students regard Grammar as a
challenging topic in their English class. The contents of this game provide
players the opportunity to compete for the highest scores and also gain
knowledge as they answer the quiz questions. The quiz questions are
developed by lecturers according to contents in the ELC121 language course
syllabus. The advantages of this game are the elements of competition,
interactivity, instant feedback, point scores and grammar knowledge. In future,
this game will be expanded to include more grammar topics to extend the
usefulness. Also, the game will be developed as a mobile app to enable more
students to benefit from the app. |
