Abstract
Language learning has long been regarded as a daunting task, often accompanied by tedious textbooks and monotonous grammar drills. However, it doesn’t have to be that way. In recent years, the concept of gamification in education has gained immense popularity, making language learning not only effective but also enjoyable. In this article, we’ll explore how to make language learning a fun and engaging experience through gamification, providing practical examples along the way.
