VERB VOYAGE: TENSE QUEST TBT

About the Project

English verb tense proficiency is often hindered by learners' anxiety and the inherent difficulty of the topic. Verb Voyage: Tense Quest, TBT, an interactive educational game based on the Theory of Variation, addresses this by offering an engaging, low-pressure learning environment. Designed around engagement, meaningfulness, and social interaction, the game provides the necessary cognitive stimulation to enhance learning. Survey results indicate that its targeted exercises heightened learners' awareness of verb tenses, successfully improving their understanding, application, and confidence. Ultimately, the game demonstrates the importance of developing theoretically grounded instructional tools that align with cognitive processes and preferences to promote effective learning.
