摘要
本研究的主要目的是探讨严肃手游《Jumo The Jumper》对小学英语学生词汇习得的影响及其对英语课程的态度。本研究的主要研究设计为准实验设计,非等效对照组包括前测组和后测组。实验组的20名学生玩了为期四周的旨在教授“动物”单元英语词汇的严肃手机游戏,而对照组的20名学生则接受了传统的基于课程的教学。独立样本t检验分析表明,在小学课堂上使用严肃手游《Jumo the Jumper》对学生词汇习得的影响显著高于传统教学。另一方面,严肃的手机游戏对学生的英语课程态度没有显著的影响。
The Effect of Serious Mobile Games on Students’ English Vocabulary Acquisition and Attitudes toward English
The main aim of this study was to explore the effect of the serious mobile game Jumo the Jumper on the vocabulary acquisition of primary school English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students and their attitudes toward an EFL course. The main research design of the study was a quasi-experimental design with nonequivalent control groups that included pre-test and post-test control groups. Twenty students in the experimental group played the serious mobile game aimed at teaching English vocabulary about the “animals” unit for four weeks, while 20 students in the control group received traditional, curriculum-based tuition. Based on the analysis of the independent sample t-test, the use of the serious mobile game Jumo the Jumper in primary school classrooms had a significant effect on the vocabulary acquisition of the students compared to traditional instruction. On the other hand, the serious mobile game did not have a significant effect on the students’ attitudes toward the EFL course.
