本研究旨在探讨透过桌上游戏应用于英语补救教学课后班中,以减轻低成就学童对学习英语的恐惧,提升英语学科的趣味性,藉此提升低成就学童学习英语的兴趣、促进他们的学习参与度和学习英语的成功感,以及软实力的掌握;以及探讨桌游教学对教师及学生的接受度和成效;及探讨本澳推行桌游教学的可行性。本研究采用行动研究法,以研究者任教四年级有英语补救教学需要的学生为研究对象,共计20位,研究者结合澳门基本学力要求、教学目标及内容,设计有助于学生学习的教学游戏,实施共8周之桌上游戏,并于英语加强班课堂内进行桌游活动。透过观察、学生回馈及兴趣量表、教学省思、照片等方式进行数据搜集。研究结果显示桌游的设计能成功地融入英语教室中;小四低成就学童高度肯定桌游运用于英语教室中;设计桌游有实施限制,需要同侪相互协助、学校和教育相关部门提供资源资助。

The purpose of this study is to examine how board games can help low achievers reduce their fear of learning English, enhance their enjoyment and interest in learning English, encourage engagement in learning, and help them develop learning success and soft skills by reducing the fear of learning English. To determine whether board games are acceptable, feasible and effective for teachers and students and if they can be implemented in Macao. The research was conducted using the action research method and involved 20 students with English remedial education needs in the researcher’s class in Primary 4. Based on Macao’s basic academic requirements, teaching objectives and contents, the researcher designs teaching games that are helpful for students’ learning, implements table games for a total of 8 weeks, and conducts board games in English intensive classes. Data were collected through observation, feedback from students and interest scales, teaching reflections, and photographs. This study demonstrated that board games design was successfully integrated into the English classroom;the use of the table games in the English classroom was highly positive among low achievers in Primary 4. The design of the board games was subject to implementation constraints, and peer support and resources from schools and education-related departments were required to facilitate implementation.
