Shen Qiao; Samuel Kai Wah Chu; Susanna Siu-sze Yeung – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2025
Morphological analysis is a form of problem solving to work out the meanings of unfamiliar words by applying knowledge of morphemes. It has emerged recently as an important predictor of reading comprehension. However, while gamification can potentially be used to teach this skill, few studies have examined its use. To address this, a…
