“…To this respect, 67.13 % of them strongly agreed and 19.54 % agreed that the use of digital games motivated their participation to develop the activities proposed in their Canvas virtual platform; however, 13.33 % of the participants were either neutral or in disagreement. Certainly, games are amusing and interesting, they are highly motivating; furthermore, they can be used to practice many types of communication for enhancing all language skills [46], [47].…”

The purpose of this study is to analyze the use of digital games to enhance English as a Foreign Language (EFL) grammar and vocabulary in the English Major of Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja, in southern Ecuador. A total of 68 students from B1 level, according to the Common European Frame-work of Reference for Languages (CEFR), participated in this study. All the par-ticipants were enrolled in two different classes of a Communicative Grammar course. A mixed-method approach was used to collect and analyze data in this study. Pre and post-questionnaires as well as writing rubrics were applied as in-struments. Digital games were implemented throughout an academic term of 5 months in which students received permanent feedback. The results show that digital games were useful to improve learners´ grammar in aspects concerning the use of modals, gerunds, and infinitives; also, students showed an improvement in their vocabulary knowledge, especially in topics related to jobs and education.

“…Intercultural students with social skills present more adaptive social behavior (Veziroglu-Celik and Acar, 2018), which can be successfully extrapolated to other life situations (Uiphanit et al, 2020). For this, it is important to create the right conditions that promote the training of these skills, as well as the development of efficient and effective programs that enable their acquisition and improvement (Okada and Matsuda, 2019).…”

In recent decades, large migratory movements have been taking place, which has turned Spain into a culturally diverse country. For this reason, the present research focuses on social skills, which are considered of utmost importance in different educational contexts. To this end, the aim was to adapt and validate a scale to diagnose social skills in young people aged 6 to 12 years (M = 9.65 years; SD = 1.395). Of these, 460 (60.4%) were boys and 301 (39.60%) girls. For this purpose, a methodology is followed that involves the judgement of experts in the field, followed by an exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and then a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The sample chosen for the study is made up of 1564 young people, Primary School students from different Andalusian localities that constitute border cities in the south of Spain, and which have a great cultural, ethnic and religious diversity that is reflected in their classrooms. The items of the scale were obtained from relevant questionnaires on the subject under study, initially containing 33 items and 6 underlying constructs. After validation of the AFE (n = 761), the structure is verified and the model is corroborated by CFA (n = 803) with structural equations (RMSEA = 0.04; CFI = 0.77; TLI = 0.73). Finally, the reliability and internal consistency of the instrument is examined, obtaining values above 0.6 for all dimensions. As a result, a new scale composed of 33 items and 5 dimensions is obtained, with psychometric properties that give it validity and reliability. In conclusion, we present a useful resource for teachers that allows them to diagnose the social skills of Primary School students in schools characterised by their great cultural diversity and among the peer group.

The purpose of this project is to (1) develop an educational game for learning in a JAVA programming course for undergraduate students, (2) compare the learning achievements of educational games and lectures, and (3) assess learner game acceptance with learning through games. The sample used in this research were 50 first-year undergraduate students in the field of management information systems from the Department of Information Science, S University in Thailand. In game design and development, The researcher developed the game based on the concept of game flow elements, such as challenges, story, fun, beauty, and so on, in order to inspire learners to be engaged in learning through games. The tools used in the research were (1) educational game performance evaluation forms, (2) an educational game for learning JAVA programming concepts, (3) a learning achievement test, and (4) student satisfaction assessment forms. The research results showed that (1) the learning efficiency of the educational game was very good, (2) the academic achievement of learning by the educational game was higher than that of learning by lecture, and (3) the acceptance of learning with computer games by the students was excellent. Additionally, learning through games made it easier for students to absorb the subject and learn more effectively. It has been discovered that learning through games improves learning results for students.
