PROJECT MANAGEMENT 2020–2021
Narrowed down topic
Should be delineated/specific; no ambiguity
Learning languages online through games (gamification) Keywords: English, game, technology, vocabulary, EFL, gamification, instruction, educational game,
vocabulary acquisition, EFL students, Duolingo, game-based learning see text/abstract
1. The degree to which games helped increase the vocabulary size for EFL learners
2. Intentional vs. incidental vocabulary learning through games
3. The effect of using language games on vocabulary
4. More narrowed down: elementary/secondary school? University? Undergraduate students? EFL students: EFL students’ vocabulary acquisition through online
games
5. Online vocabulary games as a tool for teaching & learning English vocabulary
6. What is the role of the teacher then?
Present narrowed down topic in presentation in the introduction section: relatability of topic, reasons why you chose the topic (what reason was the most important, e.g.
“our biggest motivation in choosing this topic was…”)
Project management/planner: extra/other
1. Resources
Look at help online carefully, see e.g. ‘finding information’ 2
ERIC
Google (Scholar)
Amazon (US, UK, DE, FR, NL)
LLBA
(BASE)
(MLA-IB)
For doi: website ‘Crossref’
UAntwerpen library via VPN
Sci-Hub (very legal)
Collocation dictionary: Ozdic
2. Depth/detail assignment (topic exploration)
Keywords: generate, combine, truncate (see ‘finding information’) + write down where you got the keywords from (books, indices…) Very sensitive to topic that you’ve
chosen; go through the list of keywords you used to find your sources
Keywords is ambiguous: they are terms, e.g. student motivation is one keyword.
You can organise them alphabetically.
Evaluating information: see CACAO criteria, categories of information, types of information
3. Planning & time management
Think about a plan of approach for the presentation + portfolio Combining the work for both assignments! We have agreed on internal deadlines and we will come
together every Thursday at 11:30 am.
Keep track of things you have been doing (note all your steps down and take all things into consideration)
Practical information, e.g. Deadline? Important deadlines in between? What is being evaluated here?
