DOTA2, a future for English learner?
Based on a good classmate's post at https://steemit.com/teammalaysia/@syafiqahazmi/dota2-a-future-for-english-learner . I have decided to write a short opinion about it.
In todays' world, classroom is not the only place or platform to learn. We have social media like Instagram, Twitter and many more. As mentioned by my friend, online game or DOTA2 can be a better place for some students to learn English than classroom since they have no confidence in their ability, they will give less commitment during class and they do not enjoy the learning and teaching process. When the students got no interest in learning through formal education, teacher should find a way to help their children and motivate them to focus on thing they like. That is why, online game sometimes can help teacher enlighten their burden to guide the students. Through online game like DOTA2, students can improve their English in a simple way and learn to communicate with other to gain confident.
The method used to address the problem is based on observation. Teacher can observe their students in the classroom before applying this online game in learning process. So that, teacher will know students' weakness and give opinion in helping them.
She think it is a creative method to teach English in the future. The students will have a new experience and making the learning and teaching process to be fun and productive. However, teachers need to keep their full attention to the students during the game session to keep the student focus and to achieve the learning objectives during the class. It is the important thing in conducting online game with students as teacher must take a responsible to make sure their students keep focus. Students tend to lose focus when they doing the same thing for a long time. Because of that, teacher must find a way to make it fun and vary.
That is all from me, it was nice having to give my opinion on this topic.
