Abstract

According to KISA, many people play smartphone games. stress relieving, time is the reason to beat. Attempts to combine mobile games and education in the Korean game market are continuing. Studies have shown that using commercial games for education can be effective. Also, researches for activation educational games are increasing. Creating educational games requires a lot of time and money. Due to the nature of mobile games, the service is often terminated without updating. If you are able to acquire a naturally educational part while playing mobile games, you will see the effect of one pair of fun and education, both at once. We analyzed the education factors of the game with 'Real Farm' which is a simulation farm game. We focused on analyzing information acquisition and utilization part through indirect experience which is characteristic of simulation and examined educational factors based on design elements of educational game. This can signal the positive aspects of the game and the educational content of existing games. If you use smartphones as a pedagogy, you can expect a positive perception of games and an increase in the average life expectancy of mobile games.

진흥원의 조사에 따르면 많은 사람들이 스마트폰 게임을 한다. 스트레스 해소, 시간을 때우기 위한 이유다. 한국 게임 시장에서 모바일게임과 교육의 접목을 위한 시도가 계속되고 있다. 상업용 게임을 교육에 활용하면 효과가 있다는 연구 결과가 있다. 또한 교육용게임의 활성화를 위한 연구도 늘고 있다. 교육용게임을 만들려면 많은 시간과 비용이 필요하다. 모바일게임의 특성상 업데이트가 지속되지 않고 금새 서비스가 종료되는 경우가 많다. 모바일게임을 하면서 자연스럽게 교육적인 부분을 습득할 수 있다면 재미와 교육, 이 두 가지를 한 번에 얻을 수 있는 일석이조의 효과를 볼 수 있을 것이다. 이에 시뮬레이션 농장게임인 '레알팜'을 대상으로 게임의 교육적 요소에 대한 분석을 진행하였다. 시뮬레이션의 특징인 간접체험을 통한 정보 습득 및 활용부분의 분석에 중점을 두었고, 교육용게임의 설계요소를 바탕으로 교육적인 요소를 찾아보았다. 이는 게임의 긍정적인 부분과 기존 출시된 게임에도 교육적인 부분이 있음을 알릴 수 있다. 스마트폰만 있다면 언제, 어디서든 즐길 수 있다는 장점을 교육적으로 적극 활용한다면 게임에 대한 긍정적인 인식이 늘 것이며 모바일 게임의 평균 수명 증가도 기대해 볼 수 있다.
