Answer the following questions by LNET https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp How do you feel about using computer games in the classroom? What have been some of your past experiences using computer games. en-us 2019-09-25 19:33:33 UTC 2020-01-11 21:13:44 UTC hello@padlet.com Shunit Iluz cool770 https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/416385496 I think computer games increased the children’s awareness of the practical value of the formal teaching they received in the classroom. In addition  they can act as a highly efficient engine in the teaching because the games add an element of competition and challenge . 
I use a lot computer games during my lessons as Kahoot , quiziz  ,  Galim , Ofek etc  My students love these lessons.
For example I use Kahoot in several ways. I can easily create a quiz with questions from their lesson. Then my students can quickly check their answers.

When I was little I used to play a lot computer games which required English language skills .

It was the computer games that mattered to me because here English was a means of coping rather than an end in itself as it is at school.  When I came across new words in the games, I simply couldn’t progress if I didn’t understand what was being said.

The pupils have fun and they learn a lot.

However, sometimes you need a technician in the classroom as there are viruses, mafunctions etch. 
I like kahoot and quizlet. This is something I can make relevant for my high school students. ]]> 2019-11-27 06:18:17 UTC https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/417010426 Dorin Naim https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/417028133 I use the computer a lot in class but less computer games ...

Young children can learn more from games such as vocabulary and even grammar. During my lessons I use the computer a lot such as presentations, digital books and games. The last game I used is Jeopardy from the web site Flipquiz - I devided the class to 4 groups and they in turns had to choose the topic and the amount of money (100 is an easy question and 500 is the hardest). ]]> 2019-11-27 10:55:36 UTC https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/417085406 Meirav Uzan https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/417085421 Using computer games in the classroom, especially in elemantary is an important tool. Young children can learn more from games such as vocabulary and even grammar. During my lessons I use the computer a lot : ppt, digital books and. games.
The last game that I used in my classes was "quizlet".

Most pupils love playing games in general and computer games in particular. In addition to the games the digital course book offers, I love using Kahoot and I do so on a regular basis. I encourage pupils to create their own games as well. I also teacher them how to create games using Power Point. I am familiar with Quizlet but I am not a fan. Computer games help pupils develop social skills (like team work) as well as linguistic ones. These are requirements of the 21st century both for teachers and learners.]]> 2019-11-28 14:26:51 UTC https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/417504225 Laurence Salmon lorens0100 https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/417521234 I like to use computer games in my lessons, I finish each lesson by playing a game with the whole class for at list 5 minutes. Sometimes I bring computers to the classroom and I let the pupils choose a site from a list on the board, they play and practice vocabulary in a fun way. I've been using games for a long time, I believe that pupils can remember the vocabulary and a sentence structure when they have a joyful experience- When they play they have fun and I'm sure it helps then in the learning process. ]]> 2019-11-28 15:24:08 UTC https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/417521234 Janna Okorokov https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/417793407 Quizlet, Kahoot and Brainpop

I use quizlet, kahoot and brainpop a lot during partani and regular lessons. On quizlet I create my own sets of new vocabulary according the material in the textbooks. Once I have a certain set I can use it as a drilling exercise. On Kahoot I use the ready made games, create my own games or let my students create the game according to the material we learn during the lessons. I send the links for the games through smartschool to let my students practice at home in a fun way. I often use Brainpop in my lessons. The pupils enjoy watching the short videos on the different topics and to play the games.

The kids love it!! They are engaged and without even notice they read a lot and think only in English. It is amazing tool, especially these days when the use of devices among children is so common. So why not use it?
It is important to adjust the teaching to the period we live in, technology period.
I use Kahoot and Quizlet and they are both working great at the classroom in every theme we learn about. Some of the games are already there and some I create new.
I highly recommend to use these games in the classroom, it works!]]> 2019-11-30 17:34:13 UTC https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/417998306 Leora Apfel https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/418018314  

I like using computer games in the classroom as I find it to be an engaging and motivating way for children to stay interested in the lesson. It could be used to introduce the topic, learn new vocabulary or more like to review the vocabulary. Using computer games in the classroom does sometimes make discipline harder for me so I like to set strict guidelines of how the students have to behave. I like Brainpop in particular as I think it is very useful for my students to watch the videos and then answer the questions. I sometimes decide to take my class to the computer room and have them each play computer games on their level. For this I like to use Galim as I find they have numerous games on different levels, going from learning to read to comprehension activities.

Students enjoy either kahoot, quizlet, or quizlet live. These engage everyone simultaneously. I've given assignment or test reviews on google quiz (not exactly a game but they don't seem to notice). One challenge that I do find, especially if we work on games individually in a differentiated manner is that many students are not trustworthy. There are always a select few that do not work almost at all on the given assignment unless I am there with them (this is not a function of too challenging an assignment but rather lack of maturity and addiction to particular games). I understand that in many of these situations it cannot be 100% of the students 100% of the time however it is usually repeat offenders who do not complete the given task.]]> 2019-11-30 20:25:00 UTC https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/418029251 Danielle Israeli https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/418192603 I love using computer games in the classroom! I think that anything outside the book is always great and the students love it. There are some great games and activities that can be done through the computer. My overall experience with using computer games has been good but I did find it to be a little more problematic and challenging when the students were given the opportunity to play a game on their own computers. For the most part, students would play and participate nicely but there were always a few that had computer issues, internet problems, or those who just did other things when the teacher was not looking. Despite those things I still think that it is a great tool and is a must in every classroom. ]]> 2019-12-01 19:21:13 UTC https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/418192603 Dganit Eldar https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/418238122 In my English lessons I often use computer games. We play Wheel of Fortune in the classroom and many other games. The pupils love it and enjoy working on the computer. English learning games are great supplemental tools to help students learn and master a language faster.]]> 2019-12-01 23:49:21 UTC https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/418238122 Chasya Swisa chasya_gigi1 https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/418354447 I think computer games are very important. When I used in PANORAMA book we had games on the website/ the pupils liked it. in addition I tried quizlet and it was fun. but I would like to be familiar with more computer games which are easy to use. for example Kahoot.

The students are very excited to work on a computer, especially when it comes to playing games with other students in the classroom. The motivation to participate in online activities increases significantly among all students. Usually, I use the digital book platforms. Each book has free games software that the student can use in class and at home. In addition, students practice vocabulary on the "Hachtava" site, and play on the Esl games website.

It makes even those who are usually less participate in class enthusiastic. I use computer games in class to review vocbulary and grammer rules. 

But !! since we depend on internet connection, we might plan a game and than not be able to play it. (Unfortunatelly, we experience internet disconnections in our school, every now and than).]]> 2019-12-06 08:22:34 UTC https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/420641397 Sharona Gordon https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/420921693 I love using games in class as well as interactive tools that motivate the pupils to use their English in different ways. I used Padlet, the games on hachtava site, kahoot, quizlet. Pupils like it and enjoy them but sometimes can also  get bored quickly]]> 2019-12-06 18:24:39 UTC https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/420921693 Revital Biener https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/421163811 Most of the time I like using computer games in the classroom. They are effective for teaching and learning. They function as learning tools. I don't use them just for fun. I use them in order to motivate my students in classroom learning. I use them in certain situations, such as classroom demonstrations, reviews or for special need students. My students apply content knowledge and practice skills. In the past, computer games captured my students' attention as they explored content.The games also improved their motivation and efficiency. I noticed that my students developed more positive attitudes toward English learning. However, in other cases, computer games led to poor classroom management. They caused distractions. Some of my students linked to Facebook or played a different game. Others just tried to beat the game instead of learning the material. I usually use assessments, like Kahoot, Quizlet or Quizizz. In addition, my students sometimes create their own games. In sum, I like using computer games in the classroom as long as I control them.

I really like using games durin the lessons to review vocabulary, grammar or for stressing a new sound. I am not sure that there are enough games that can be used in EFL classes. Many of the things i find are too difficult to use. However. this is very motivation and is agreat way to do somthing different.

I think we should talk to them "in their language", so when we let them use this tool- computer- it should be used to strengthen the English language. 

I have one weekly English lesson in the computer room; During this lessons the pupils practice vocabulary and grammar through games, they love it.

This allows practice and repetition of the material in a fun way. The students love it very much and it gives them motivation. From time to time I use computer games in the classroom. I usually use Power Point games that I download from the islcollective.com website (I don't always have internet access at a lesson, so I use games that are offline).

It makes most of the pupils take part. It makes pupils to dare and try use English, even if they sometimes feel they "dont know anything",. As fr my experiences using computer games, I also think that it can't be the only way to teach a subject. It can be as anothe tool, but still wont give up on the "old way" of teaching something new. Also in summarizing a subject, I believe it is important to combain few tool and nt only the cmputer games. Kids love cmputers, they love games, they will love English too :)

Actually, I would say it is a must. I like to give the students time to practice the vocabulary through Quizlet, sometimes Kahoot, and many others. I also like to, in my case using Click 1 for example, use the digital version of the book and play the games it offers.
-My experiences are very good, I recommend it and like to do it myself. I think that using computer games engages the pupils and allows them to practice the content in a different way. However, sometimes it is not so easy to play with 30 students!, so using computer games should be planned before according to the lesson and the kids.]]> 2019-12-19 19:50:16 UTC https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/426059793 Shalva Seri shalva https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/426509354 I like using computer games in class and the students do too.
I use various random name pickers , powerpoint games and on rare occasion Quizlet live.

In addition, in most of the cases the student gets instant feedback/score , which makes the student aware whether they have to practice more an get more specific of what exactly they lack.
I agree with Sheina Segal who claims that computers nowadays are a part of the pupils' lives so practicing vocabulary this way makes them feel more comfortable I assume.  ]]> 2019-12-29 21:16:40 UTC https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/427029985 Chasya Swisa https://padlet.com/lnlearnonet/osw1xuudbofp/wish/427296700 I think it's very good to use computer games in the classroom. but if there is a computers room it's can be better to use it there. because if there is only one computer  not all the class can play at the same time.
