This study attempted to identify differences in user experience and app game fun, satisfaction, use intention between fitness app games at different level of interaction design. The playtesting method was conducted on 100(male 50, female 50) university students using 'Enjoy Your Fitness', a fitness app game developed by The Center for Health Communication Studies. The results found that more interactive app game is higher in the level of user experience such as fitness accomplishment, flow, and interest. Fitness app game's fun, satisfaction, use intention is also higher on interactive fitness app game. As the study verified that interactive fitness app game had stronger effects in user fitness experience and user experience than general fitness app games through experimental studies, it may contribute to design fitness mobile app game for health improvement.

App market has continuously been growth since its launch. The market revenues will reach about 1,000 billion US dollars in 2019. App is a core service for smartphone. Currently, there are more than 1.5 million mobile apps in App platform calling out for attention. So, if you are looking at developing a successful app, you need to have a solid marketing and distribution strategy. Online word of mouth(eWOM) is one of the most effective, powerful App marketing method. eWOM affect potential consumers' decision making, and this effect can spread rapidly through online social network. Despite the increasing research on word of mouth, only few studies have focused on content analysis. Most of studies focused on the causes and acceptance of eWOM and eWOM performance measurement. This study aims to content analysis of mobile apps review In 2013, Google researchers announced Word2Vec. This method has overcome the weakness of previous studies. This is faster and more accurate than traditional methods. This study found out the relationship between mobile app reviews and checked for reactions by Word2vec.

본 논문은 뜻풀이를 통해 한글단어를 맞추는 앱 어플리케이션인 '떴다 한글'의 구현에 대하여 논한다. 학습적인 요소와 게임적인 요소를 기반으로 만들어진 이 앱을 통하여 누구나 쉽게 이용하고 한글 단어를 학습할 수 있는 안드로이드 앱 어플리케이션이다. '떴다 한글'은 4가지 특징을 가진다. 첫 번째는 한글의 사전적인 의미를 제공하여 게임이 진행되기 때문에 사용자가 자신이 사용하는 언어의 정확한 뜻을 알 수 있게 하였다. 두 번째는 난이도를 선택할 수 있어 모든 연령대 사람들과 한글에 관심이 많은 외국인 사용자들이 쉽게 이용할 수 있다. 세 번째는 게임적 요소로 중요한 동적인 움직임과 함께 문제를 풀게 하여 사용자가 오랜 시간동안 지루하지 않게 하였다. 네 번째는 순위를 볼 수 있게 하여 자신의 점수를 등록하면 다른 사람들과 경쟁을 할 수 있도록 하여 더욱 이 앱에 관심을 갖도록 하였다. 이러한 특징들은 교육적 측면으로서 좋은 특징을 가지고 있다. 그 외에도 떴다 한글은 데이터베이스 파일을 중심으로 작동하기 때문에 파일의 구조와 입력 정보를 변경하여 여러 버전(헷갈리기 쉬운 단어, 순수우리말, 사자성어 등)의 게임으로 응용이 가능하다는 산업 및 기술적 측면의 모습도 볼 수 있다.

In many countries, recently computer programming eduction has become mandatory for K-12 students. Generally since programming is difficult for K-12 students to learn, a lot of previous works have been published in which the study motivation and class satisfaction increased when game programming was applied to programming classes. We investigated a research in which we used game programming in the programming classes for middle-school students, and analyzed educational effects. In this paper, we described the specification of the games and our class model that were applied in the research. Also, we analyzed changes made to computation thinking abilities, creative thinking abilities, and perceived support for programming after the programming classes. As a result, it was found that those abilities and the perceived support were increased. Additionally, we applied Havruta learning, a kind of paired learning, in the programming class, and have known that it increased the educational outcome with respect to the traditional method.
