3 Components for Developing a Great eLearning Game


As technology has advanced, lots of innovative ideas are being   tried in  the education domain to make the experience of children   pleasurable. Keeping  this in mind, this article focuses on crucial   components for developing a great  e-learning game.


Combining education with  entertainment is not a cup of tea for   ordinary developer. It requires lot of  creativity and patience. The   smooth layouts and graphics add to the visuals of  the game. But the   major purpose of the e-learning game should be to impart  knowledge to the students. But  it is quite   subjective to define a good e-learning game. It is still an unknown    entity which has not been answered properly. This article talks about   different  components which help in developing a great e-learning game.   Let us look at  these components in detail:


     
  • Perfect combination of learning and entertainment: Always   ensure that there is a perfect blend of learning and entertainment   while developing an e-learning game. Care should be taken that the   learning objectives behind developing the game is fulfilled. For   example; for English you can have various word jigjaw puzzles and memory   games to strengthen the memory of the student. Always try to integrate   all the crucial aspects that are important from the learning perspective   to be present in the game.

  •  
  • Give impetus to the students to play the game: Children are the most difficult target audience to attract because they   genuinely like or dislike the game. Hence, it is very important to   provide proper impetus to the students to play the games. For example;   if there are puzzles in the game each level needs to present different   challenge so that children do not get bored with the games and play to   learn something from it. Engagement and attraction are two things which   make children focus on the game.

  •  
  • Target the essential elements of learning in the game: Always focus on the learning aspect in the game. Try to eradicate those   portions wherein the learning aspect gets diverted. For example; if you   are playing a game on grammar which deals with identifying verbs and   nouns from a group of sentences. If you are constantly clicking on the   ground to walk around, examining surroundings to identify boxes and then   picking them up, the verbs that get collected are not of relevance as   they are not part of the learning mechanism.

Context is of prime importance in  an e-learning game. An experienced e-learning  provider would follow the points mentioned above and create extravagant e-learning  games for children.
