Abstract
In this project, we have devised a collection of Improvised Game Formats (IGFs) in the form of a multimedia manual. These IGFs are essentially drama activities with ad-hoc built-in linguistic restrictions, giving rise to comic effects. The IGFs, each with its own theoretical underpinning, were designed to manifest and highlight the relevance of linguistic concepts in communication contexts. They provided students hands-on experience in utilizing linguistic concepts in communication. This teaching manual will benefit the teaching of language-related courses in the department.
