SUMMARY:Gamefulness: A Framework for Language Learning and Teaching with Jonathon Reinhardt
DESCRIPTION:This event is in Link Classroom 6 (Bostock 060)\n\nAs language 
 teachers increasingly recognize that digital games motivate learners\, 
 scholars argue that some games incorporate mechanics that offer noteworthy 
 affordances\, or opportunities\, for language learning (Gee\, 2007\; Sykes 
 & Reinhardt\, 2012\; Reinhardt\, 2019). However\, not all games are 
 designed equally\, and employing games in the language classroom 
 effectively requires knowing which ones might be well-suited and why\, how 
 they might be adapted and supplemented for formal instruction\, and how 
 learner gaming experiences and dispositions towards “gameful” learning 
 play a role in their reception. How can digital games be used for the very 
 serious activity of language learning? Insight comes from research on 
 gameful teaching and learning as well as from analysis of “learnable” 
 L2 gaming practices in the Internet wilds. Grounded in these insights\, 
 this talk will present a framework of “gamefulness” for the design\, 
 evaluation\, and implementation of digital games for language learning and 
 teaching.\n\nJonathon Reinhardt\, Ph.D. (Penn State) is Associate Professor 
 of English\, Applied Linguistics and Second Language Acquisition and 
 Teaching at the University of Arizona. His research centers on the 
 relationships between the theories and practices of technology and 
 computer-assisted language learning (CALL) and teaching\, especially with 
 emergent technologies like social media and digital gaming. He is the 
 author of “Gameful Second and Foreign Language Teaching and Learning” 
 (2019\, Palgrave-Macmillan) and is the current president of CALICO\, the 
 Computer-Assisted Language Instruction Consortium.
