Costello (online game) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Costello (online game)
''Costello'' is an educational MUD — a text-based online role-playing game — designed for teaching English as a foreign or second language. It is offered online as a free service. Created in 1995, it was innovative in its use of the MUD medium for EFL/ESL instruction,and has received positive critical response. ==Characteristics==
''Costello'' is intended to function both as an engaging game and a teaching environment, following the reasoning that players will be more motivated to learn if their skill acquisition aids them in their game-play. To avoid degrading the value of language skills acquired, the game's command parser avoids support for ungrammatical shorthand forms; where a typical MUD might allow a player to examine a hat with the syntax l hat, ''Costello'' requires look at the hat. An integrated dictionary provides explication of unfamiliar terms. The game may be played through a Web browser using a Java applet or using a Java client distributed on a CD-ROM with the course textbook. A non-networked standalone application version of ''Costello'' is also included on the CD-ROM. ''Costellos tagline is "Quest-Based Learning", reflecting its structuring of learning experiences through quests. An earlier tagline was "English Through Imagination".
