Overview

Dive into the world of teaching through games and playful activities with this book!

Games are a beloved cultural pastime with untapped educational potential. But which games should you use, and how can you seamlessly integrate them into your teaching? 

Instead of prescribing a one-size-fits-all game, we offer a flexible approach. Drawing from our extensive teaching experience, we provide hundreds of teaching examples while guiding you in discovering and implementing games that will suit your unique teaching contextβ€”a ludic language pedagogy approach.

This book not only emphasizes pedagogically sound game usage but also helps you to find the freedom to play within the constraints of your teaching environment. Consider your classroom not just as a learning SPACE, but as a playground where you create the ideal setting for your students to learn through playful pedagogical choices.

The book also unpack three essential literacy skills: ludic literacy (exploring games and playful activities), literacy ABOUT literacy, and pedagogical literacy. Armed with this knowledge, you’ll be ready to design and refine your own educational playgrounds, considering methods, materials, and mediation techniques.

Finally, the book extends an invitation to join our vibrant community of teachers and researchers exploring ludic language pedagogy. Are you ready to play and transform your teaching?
