Abstract

This study aims to explore the design and integration of educationally meaningful video games to enhance students’ problem-solving and planning skills in English oral instruction. By amalgamating educational and technological elements, we endeavor to create an engaging and effective learning milieu that stimulates students’ motivation and augments their proficiency in English oral expression. The research employs an experimental methodology, encompassing the design and development of an educational video game prototype, alongside field observations and survey analysis of students. The findings indicate that the use of educationally significant video game prototypes markedly increases students’ interest and engagement in problem-solving and planning, while also achieving substantial improvement in their English oral communication skills.
