Baek, Joeun; Park, Hyekyeong
International Association for Development of the Information Society, Paper presented at the International Association for Development of the Information Society (IADIS) International Conference on Educational Technologies (6th, Hong Kong, Feb 8-10, 2019)
The purpose of this study is to design a Minecraft game where players can learn a language by negotiating meanings and constructing knowledge together with other players. In order to achieve this purpose, related theories are explored and an instructional design theory was adopted to provide a background for a game building. After the game was designed, it was implemented to test its feasibility. A further suggestion for re-design of the game as a next step was made. [For the complete proceedings, see ED601080.]
