Abstract:

The present book explores how modern board gaming and language
teaching can be beneficially combined to achieve optimal impact.
Modern board games have a lot to offer language learners and teachers,
and they should play a much more significant role in what has been
labelled "Content and Language Integrated Learning" or CLIL.

Modern board games require cooperation, problem-solving, active
discovery, interpretation and analysis. Most importantly, modern board
games allow students to explore a hypothetical environment without the
risk of language errors. The key ingredient of the present book is
"game-based learning and teaching theory", or GBLTT, a theoretical
framework which measures learning outcomes based on gaming and
learning procedures. GBLTT is focused on balancing information and
gameplay as well as putting a focus on the ability of each learner to
retain language competence and to put their subject to realistic
situations.
