Technology and teaching
vocabulary
• There are many ways for teaching different parts of a language these days.
• Thanks to the technology, people can share their experiences and ideas
faster and easier with each other.We can consider technology not only as
computers, web pages and internet but also as pictures, posters, flash
cards and etc. For teaching the vocabulary, as instance, there are a wide
variety of tools, materials and applications around us for teaching it.
• I would like to introduce a game that is suitable for ages between 6 to 8 and
it is designed to improve the vocabulary knowledge.
Wurdle is a £1.40 vocabulary app for Android
and Apple devices that challenges your students by
allowing them to compete against classmates and
receive rewards for each level they master. The app
can work through Google Game Services as an option
for recognizing student achievement. Your students
can easily see how their vocabulary skills compare
with their classmates and other students online.
Wurdle provides five different grids on a multi-player
platform. Students can easily set a timer and then try
to decipher as many words as possible within the set
time limit. Additionally, there is an untimed mode that
allows students to work at their own pace. The
interface can also be customized with different tile
designs and colors on the grid to provide your
students with a personalized learning experience.
It is a fun, flexible and fast-paced word game. Find and
trace as many words as possible before time runs out.
Can't find any more words? Shake the board to mix up the
tiles! Rotate the board for a different angle! Customize
Wurdle the way YOU like it, and see how you measure up
against your friends and the world with online high scores
and achievements.
The current version of Wurdle features:
· full support for both phones and tablets of any size!
· online leaderboards and achievements via Google Game
Services
· 4x4, 5x5, 6x6, 7x7, and 8x8 grids
· customize your display with different colors and tile
designs!
· set timer, minimum word length and more
· untimed mode
· view all possible words at the end of a round
· multiple background wallpapers
· sound effects by ozonesound.com
