This is my Korean version of 'facebook' called 'cyworld'

Some of the pictures and writings, which are private, are restricted to only some of my friends whom I permitted to access, and some of them are opened to everybody.
While traveling to other countries, I gathered some authentic English uses and variety of cultures of out of Korea.
I opened them to everybody to help my studnets and friends who are interested in Enlgish and new cultures.
Using blog and social network sites, teachers could teach things.

why bother to play games in foreign languages?
why bother?
Imagining my students back in Korea playing games in foreing languages, I think they will just focused on the game itself. Most of them would feel bothered or interrupted by the foreign languages. I think most of them might just try to figure out the rules of the games and just get automatic in playing games. They would not focus on the languages.
I had many students asking me the 'game vocabularies' which they heard playing the games. The games had actually been practiced by them without noticing the meaning of the words.
What can I do to make the learning happen?
I need to think about it..
Not difficult or stressful but fun way to learn.
Maybe the proficiency and the level of their language skills matter.
For my students back in Korean middle and high school, they need easier level of fun games.
- Answers..
1. Motivation
: It can motivate students to learn languages to play the games; one kind of good method for motivating students.
2. Teachers Role
: Rather than letting them play the game alone, teachers can play the role teaching the languages in the game. It can be good teaching and learning methods and materials. Definitely more interesing than regular textbooks.
