Trying to Learn English? Make It Fun and Games!

Trace Effects

Music! Puzzles! Comics! Games! These are the things that make learning English fun. And they are available for free to students and teachers alike on a newly redesigned American English website belonging to the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs.

Among the website’s offerings is “Trace Effects,” a collaborative English-language video game experience for students ages 12–16. In addition to English lessons, it explores American culture through adventures in an interactive world.

The redesigned site is mobile-friendly and accessible. It features multimedia and digital storytelling and integrates social media.
