Project: Magnet Board Game on WordPress
Summary
To aid with language learning this online application offers a fun way to build sentences from random words scattered on the web page. The administrator can define sentences and put them in categories. The user chooses a category and is given a scattered sentence to put in the right order.
Works well for languages where the order of words in a sentence is quite strict.
Technologies
WordPress, jQuery, Javascript, PHP, WordPress plugin development.
Challenges
This is a lot harder than it first seems! The game requires the words to be tied to their respective grammar categories. Only in this way it is possible to know when the user drags and drops the words to make a sentence whether the sentence is correct with respect to the grammar rules. From a technical point of view this required a lot of Javascript!
