This game is very simple: you just look at the image and then spell the word. You can click on the letters on the screen or use the keyboard to type. The keyboard seems to be a lot faster than clicking with the mouse. So, if you are looking to get a good score, then it would be advisable to use the keys.

Before you start, you have to select a set of content to use. There are 30 different sets available for this game and each one has about 25 items to spell. You have to spell out each item once and there is also an audio clip for each image which should play just as the image is first shown.

It is possible to add your own images and audio clips. To do this you click on the 'add' button when in the content selection screen. They you can select images from your desktop computer and they get added and displayed on the screen. The file names of the images you add become the target word that you have to spell. So if you add an image called 'beach holiday', then the target to spell for that image will be 'beach holiday'. Although, you can change the target words by clicking on the textbox directly below the image. Note that for this game it is not possible to add numbers or special characters - these are automatically removed on teh content screen. This is because the keyboard that is displayed on screen only contains letters.

There is also a timer which runs down while you are spelling the words. If the timer runs out before the game is completed, then you lose and the game is over. Once you have spelt all the items in the content set, the game also finishes and displays the scores screen. The countdown timer should get faster as you progress through the sets. In this way, the game should get more challenging. If you click the wrong letter, then you don't lose you can just try another one until you get it right. In this way there is a little bit of trial and error in learning to spell words that you don't know.

The idea for this game is that by spelling words again and again very quickly you can become a better speller and also become more familiar with the vocabulary items and the letters used to form them.

In the five highest levels both the number of words and the number of letters in the words are counted. The found and accepted words are shown in a list on the right, chich is filled as you find the words on the board. You mark your words by dragging your finger or with the mouse over the letters on the word field. The selected word is shown above the word field. If you select a word you already have found, it will bounce in the list, but the word is not counted twice. If the word is not in our dictionary, or if the word is too short, it will be marked red above the board. The glossary in this game is based on common English words and we're working to improve the content of our dictionaries. To complete a level, you must find as many words as requested.

Insert punctuation marks into the text and create easy to read sentences.

Game instructions to practice correct punctuation

Click on a level to get texts where different punctuation marks and capitalization letters have slipped away. Your task is to correct the texts so that they become easy to read again.You need to correct all texts to complete the round. If you get stuck, you can click the button Give up - it will reveal the correct answer and you may see how close you were to make it. The round counts as failed, when you click on that button, but the next time the text comes up, it is probably a bit easier for you to correct it.In some levels you will get feedback on which punctuation marks and capital letters you should use. You can also see how many of these characters you have left to place.

Rules for capitalization

Capitalization means the use of capital letters in a text otherwise written in lower case. A sentence always start with a capital letter. Other words that are always spelled with the first letter in uppercase, even if the word is not the first in a sentence, are proper nouns. Examples of proper nouns are: Peter or London. Use lower case in almost all other situation.

Rules for interpunctuation

Interpunctuation means the use of punctuation marks in a text to make it easier to understand. There are three large punctuation marks that almost always ends a sentence. These are:

A statement ends with a period: (.)

A question ends with a question mark: (?)

A command, an interjection or an emphatic declaration should end with an exclamation mark: (!)

There are also other punctuation marks that may be used inside sentences. These are:

A comma (,) is used to split a sentence into different parts and also to illustrate where there should be a pause.

A semicolon (;) is used instead of a period between sentences closely related to each other. Do not use uppercase in the sentence after the semicolon.

A colon (:) is used before a list or an explanation that is preceded by a clause that can stand by itself.

A dash (-) is used to show an abrupt shift in tone, or hesitation in speech. It is also used to set off an introductory phrase when the word or word-group that follows it constitutes a summation and as an amplification. Sometimes it is also used to add qualifying or rectifying information in abrupt parenthetical elements.

The texts in the questions

The texts are always very short. Some are only one sentence long, while some consists of a pair of sentences.

Calculation of knowledge points

Each completed game level gives 1 knowledge point in Correct punctuation. The maximum number of points (46 knowledge points) is achieved when you pass all 46 levels. You'll get a bronze medal when you complete a level 2 times and a silver medal after 5 completed rounds. A gold medal will be received after 10 completed rounds. In Correct punctuation, the maximum number of collectable gold medals is 46. You only earn knowledge points for levels that has not been cleared before. A cleared level has a green background above. Even when you have completed a level, you can continue practicing at that level, but it gives you no more knowledge points.

This page only works with Google Chrome browser on a desktop computer.
If you are having trouble with the recognition, try adjusting the volume level on your computer's built in microphone. For this to work, you have to grant the browser permission to access your microphone.
This page will only work on Google's Chrome browser. It uses voice recognition to process and display words that you say. It does this by using the voice recognition service that is built into Google Chrome browser. In order for the browser to do this, you have to grant permission to access your microphone. On the first screen, click on 'okay' and then when you see a pop-up click on 'allow'. If your browser is blocking microphone access, you should see a small icon in the top right of your browser. If you click on that icon, then you can change your browser settings.

Once you allow microphone access, you should see a title screen with a text pane and an audio input monitor. You should be able to speak into your computer and see the words appear in the text pane. You may need to adjust your volume levels for better recognition - if the volume is too low or too high then the browser may have problems recognizing what you say. This screen provides a good demonstration of what the browser recognition service can do and I think it is useful to play around with and get a feel for the technology. Once the browser starts recognizing your speech, a start button should appear at the bottom. The button only appears after you have interacted with the speech recognition.

The primary aim of this page is to be a demonstration of voice recognition and how it can be used in ESL learning. It is not intended to be pronunciation practice; rather, it is intended to practice spoken production of vocabulary items. The other pages on this site typically practice receptive listening of vocabulary, but this page is meant to practice auditory production.

On the title screen you can click on 'start' to begin the game. The aim of the game is let the player learn and practice saying specific vocabulary items - images are shown and then the word must be spoken. If you do not know the word, you can click on the audio button to hear it and then say it. This is typically a good way to learn new vocabulary items - you see the image, listen to the word being spoken and then repeat what you hear.

It is hoped that by using this game the player can slowly become able to say all the words correctly. The learning mechanism here is quite clear - you review the words you already know and then gradually learn and practice the ones you do not know. You learn the ones you do not know by listening and repeating what you hear. This is quite similar to the process of using flash cards in a real classroom. Flash cards are typically used to communicate meaning and elicit the spoken forms of vocab items. Teachers will show the cards and then monitor and provide feedback. The game is pretty much trying to emulate this process in an on line format.

Just to be clear, the aim of this game is not to practice pronunciation; no grading of pronunciation is measured or evaluated. Rather, it just a case of whether the user can remember the word and then say it well enough for the server to recognize it. The way that the speech recognition works is that it returns the word that it most closely matches what it thinks the person is saying.

Certain allowances are made when checking whether the correct words are spoken. For example, if the target word is 'apple' and you say 'apples', then it will still be shown as correct. You can turn this off by clicking on the settings button and changing easy to off. There are also some alternate words that will be accepted as correct. For example, when the target word is 'plane', speaking 'airplane' will also be correct.

In order to make the game more interesting, the items are divided into groups of 8 and you are also give score for each correct word spoken. Clicking on the audio or hint buttons will decrease the score. The maximum score for a vocab item is 200 and so the maximum possible for the game is 8 * 200 * the number of rounds.

This is a game for practicing English sentence formation. It is primarily aimed at ESL (English as a second language) students. To play, you select a set of content to play with, and then make sentences by clicking on word bubbles. As you make sentences, the bubbles disappear and slowly the board is cleared.

The idea behind this game is to have players practice forming sentences in a fun way. Rather than just click on boxes or words to make sentences, which can get a bit boring, this game tries to make it more engaging. This is done by making it similar to a bejeweled type of game. In that genre, you have a board of gems, candies or other items and you have to match them, make them disappear and in doing so, slowly clear the whole board. The idea with this game is to have similar game play, except instead of matching jewels, players form English sentences. Bubbles are used to enclose individual words so that they can be combined in different ways. They are particularly good for this purpose as they are appealing while also hollow so as to allow the words to be displayed clearly.

Simply forming sentences, which useful in some ways, can be criticized as being dry and lacking in context. It is questionable as to whether a player is really learning much or acquiring language if they are just forming sentences abstractly. I think that language acquisition really needs a context of meaning that the language can be attached to. If you take the example of the phrase, 'He is turning on the TV'. If you can get a learner to practice forming this sentence, then it can be useful to re-enforce grammar and also the collocation of 'turning on' with 'TV'. However, it is vastly more useful if the learner can practice forming the sentence while also being presented with an image that elicits the meaning or idea of a guy turning the TV on. When a player forms the sentence in the matching context, the language is associated with the meaning and the language acquisition is much more effective. With this in mind, this game shows an image and requires the player to form a correct sentence which matches the meaning shown in the picture.

Forming the sentences in the correct way, getting correct forms of verbs etc, can be quite difficult. To make it somewhat easier, this game offers feedback to guide the player. As the bubbles are clicked, the sentence formed shows at the bottom of the screen. When small mistakes, such as missing words or incorrect word order, are made, red marks appear at the bottom to indicate this and to show the player how to change the sentence formation. Bigger mistakes, such as getting the verb or first word wrong, are also highlighted. Although, it's quite difficult to give an accurate correction for such mistakes and so these mistakes as simply underlined in red.

Playing the game is, hopefully, quite straightforward. You click the bubbles to select the words, re-click to deselect a word and you even click and drag the mouse over bubbles to select more quickly. When selecting bubbles, you can only select adjacent ones - as that's how this kind of game works - and to help with this, possible bubbles are highlighted in yellow.

There a couple of modes to play in. Normal mode can be quite tricky and so an easy mode is also possible. Easy mode fades out all the bubbles except the ones you must select. Then you simply have to select the remaining bubbles in the correct order. It's also possible to get a hint by clicking on the 'hint' button. When you do this, the game draws a line specifically showing the correct answer. This displays once right at the start, so as to guide the player as to how to play the game.

The game doesn't have scoring in the way that other games do, but it does keep track of the time taken to complete a set of content. At the end, a high score table is shown and players who complete a set fastest are shown at the top.
