THE EFFECTIVENESS OF LEARNING GRAMMAR THROUGH GAMES

Abstract

This article examines the effectiveness of learning grammar through games in English language education. Grammar instruction often relies on traditional rule-based methods, which may reduce learner motivation and participation. Game-based learning provides an interactive and meaningful approach to grammar acquisition. This paper analyzes theoretical foundations, empirical studies, classroom practices, and cognitive aspects of grammar games. It also introduces an innovative instructional model supported by pedagogical theory. The findings indicate that grammar games significantly improve motivation, retention, accuracy, and communicative competence.
