Student Attitudes:Gaming at The College Level
(0) There has been growing interest among second language researchers and educators in harnessing the motivational power of computer games to improve learning outcomes for students.However,the literature is still somewhat sparse when it comes to the integration of educational games into the college-level course syllabus or major curriculum.This paper reveals the features and requirements necessary in order for gaming to be useful at the college level,based on a survey completed by 36 Chinese college students majoring in English or English Translation.Results suggest that students are able to provide thoughtful insights into the possible benefits of gaming for their language learning,which is useful information for game designers,English professors,and English and Translation department chairs to take into consideration when contemplating the integration of gaming into the college course syllabus or the major curriculum.
