Serious educational game developer Alelo has announced that its Tactical Iraqi Language & Culture Training System will soon be utilized by the U.S. Army's 73rd Airborne Brigade and other units of the Army’s Southern European Task Force (Airborne) in preparation for deployment in Iraq.
The serious game, which was originally developed by the University of Southern California, teaches not only what to say in Iraqi Arabic, but also how to speak the language as well through lessons that focus on relevant skills, everyday situations and tasks. In addition, the software also covers cultural awareness topics such as Iraq’s non-verbal gestures and norms of politeness and etiquette.
