摘要：Computer Aided Instruction (CAI) has been considered as a powerful device for teaching and learning second languages. However, contrary to expectations, many have assessed CAI to be less than satisfactory in terms of their efficacy and effectiveness. It is because of boring and monotonous characters of educational applications. To complete all tasks in educational applications requires great efforts and patience due to lacking fun and amusement. Therefore, how to add amusement elements on applications is a big deal for the developers of e-learning applications for language learning. In this paper, in order to seek a solution for this, we will show a way to add these elements by gamification of an application for practicing building phrase which is mostly difficult to attract learners' interests in spite of its importance in language learning.
