Presentation #1

The Effects of Gamified Interleaved Spaced Repetition on Vocabulary Learning

   by Louis Lafleur (Kwansei Gakuin University)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Presentation #2

Using Games, VR, and AI to Learn Uncommon Languages

   by Liang Xu (Charlie, 许亮) (Dublin City University)

Abstract:
This study blends interesting language learning methods with modern technology like games, VR, and AI. We're researching ways to make learning languages more fun, especially for languages that are not commonly taught. Our goal is to create applications that use games, VR, and AI to inspire a deeper passion for language learning, especially for endangered languages spoken by indigenous communities.
