Abstract This manuscript, as a conceptual article and communication piece, offers insights into the pedagogy of play as a philosophy of education and a wide-ranging set of methods and techniques. It intends to encourage readers to invest (further) in playful learning in language learning. To this aim, playful learning is first problematized within language education. The paper then presents an expanding (revised) outline of play, elaborating on the wide spectrum of pedagogical affordances that playful approaches can provide. It employs the nomenclature, 'language learning playscapes' to cast light on major components and principles of a playful approach to language education. The article also addresses the compatibility and contribution of such approach within various frameworks of practice. It particularly advocates 'signature pedagogy', while making connections with other teaching paradigms (e.g., student-centered learning, positive education). Readers are also updated on practical ideas and related case studies to implement playful language learning more efficiently. Finally, the article touches upon several areas of development within playful language education especially developing appropriate language learning materials and playful assessment. |
