I will explore the use of game-enhanced (not designed specifically for world language learning) vs. game-based (games specifically designed for world language classroom use) technology games. I used both in my classroom and surveyed students on effectiveness and usability. Games can be an area where we can really enhance student motivation and time-spent on world language learning outside the classroom. I will give examples of games that can be used and explain how I integrated them into class. I will also cover how I graded participation and show the benefits to students/teachers of using this approach.Terri Wright, Millard Public Schools, tlwright@mpsomaha.org
