This study explores the concept of Study Time Management Service(STMS) and the characteristics of gamification elements in STMS, in order to propose the meaning of psychic anti-entropy and the role of a meme as a new gamification element. The goal of gamification in education is to enhance study motivation and lead to flow by integrating similarities between game and study into the study environment. STMS also aims at such a goal. However, it differs in that the external anti-entropy environment, such as blocking apps, is connected with game mechanics or game thinking to give extrinsic motivation. It is also unique in that it uses a meme as a new gamification element to induce intrinsic motivation. In particular, a meme as a kind of guideline for performing study activities induces intrinsic motivation to imitate good study patterns and offers the driving force to sustain psychic anti-entropy state. Therefore, gamification in STMS is to strengthen the external anti-entropy environment by utilizing game mechanics or game thinking, and to maintain the psychic anti-entropy state by utilizing a meme of study patterns.

This study has developed a preventive launcher from smartphone addiction for the digital generation and the contents recommendation based on machine learning which used multiple and collective intelligence. This could provide convenient digital nurturing experience for the parents who fear their children's over use of digital devices and also suggest individually adaptive digital learning methods that enhance the learning efficiency and pleasurable and safe learning environment for the children. Suggested application is a kind of gamification launcher that protects children from harmful contents and from smartphone addiction with time limit settings. For parents who find difficulty choosing from various kinds of contents and applications for education, this suggested system could provide a learning analytic report based on big data after collecting and analyzing the data of their children's learning and activities and recommend contents necessary for their kids using recommended algorithm by collective intelligence.

본 논문에서는 Unity 3D 엔진을 심층 분석하여 게임개발 교육현장에서의 유용성을 검토하였다. Unity 엔진을 이용하면 필드의 제작, 캐릭터 애니메이션 세팅, 스크립트 작성, Asset 관리, 레벨 디자인 등 많은 작업을 하나의 통합 환경에서 수행할 수 있다. 또한 컴파일 과정을 거치지 않아도 게임을 제작하는 도중 언제라도 실행해 볼 수 있기 때문에 개발에 걸리는 시간을 단축 할 수 있다. 본 연구의 초점은 게임 앱 설계 관련 프로젝트의 수행이나 교육용 게임 개발의 학습 모형을 제시하기 위한 과정이다.

In this study, we propose a reliable command placement recognition algorithm using tangible commands blocks developed for our coding puzzle platform, and present its performance measurement results on an Augmented Reality testbed environment. As a result, it can recognize up to 30 tangible blocks simultaneously and their placements within 5 seconds reliably. It is successfully ported to an existing coding puzzle mobile app and can operate an IoT attached robot via bluetooth connected mobile app.

The purpose of this study is to produce and distribute a smart device based educational application for culinary practice. This study was performed from Jul. 1 to Dec. 30, 2012. The design of the application is composed of the theoretical contents, making methods, practice video and evaluation questions of Western cuisine among the contents of the culinary practice education. In addition, the notice and Q&A were added for the interaction between teachers and learners. For this study, 31 main dishes' pictures, 155 pictures for making processes by menu, 31 recipes, 31 cooking tips, 372 evaluation questions and 31 cooking videos about 31 menus were produced. The contents produced as above were directly inserted at 'http://kongju-fn.dslink.co.kr/super/index.html' to produce the application. This application can be found through searching with the word of 'yoribaksa'. This study can be considered to be significant in that this application was produced in the situation of the absence of any other previous applications for culinary practice education.

This study empirically investigated the user's experience with based on the Technology Acceptance Model. According to the frequency analysis results, the usability for learning was evaluated relatively higher than that for appreciation from the perspective of perceived usefulness and the technical factors such as graphics and modeling raised the issue for the quality improvement. According to the results of the correlation analysis, the usability for learning correlated with the degree of satisfaction. In addition, all detailed factors of perceived ease of use positively influenced on the degree of satisfaction and the impact of the environmental factor on the degree of satisfaction was greatest. The degree of satisfaction with the VR application significantly correlated with the degree of immersion and behavioral intention to the VR application. Therefore, this study proved the suitability for the Technology Acceptance Model as a tool for evaluating a VR application.

Software integration becomes very important in these days. Since the 4th industrial revolution has begun and influences its heavy effects on our daily life, software education has been introduced in the 2015 national revised curriculum. The purpose of this study is to verify the effects of a mobile web application for the elementary algorithm class based on STEAM on the problem solving process of elementary school students. To do so, in this study we constructed an algorithm learning contents based on STEAM for new software education and developed a mobile web application for flipped learning to improve their problem solving ability. Further, an experimental group and a controlled group are selected respectively from the 5th grade elementary school students. Then, a new flipped learning class using our mobile materials was applied to the experimental group while a traditional lecture class using the activity papers was applied to the controlled group. Finally the paired samples t-tests were carried out. As a result, we found that there was a statistically significant difference in problem solving process between the two groups. Based on our experimental research and the results of statistical analysis, the mobile web application class based on STEAM turned out to be effective in improving the problem solving ability of elementary school students.

This study has been conducted on 213 students in 4-year universities located in the regions of Daejeon and Chungnam in order to investigate a method to develop a smart device based culinary education application and the results and development method were as follows. First, the most often used smart device was a smart phone, which is used for over 5 hours a day and mainly used for SNS. Second, they utilized a smart device for language and major study during their spare time, wanted educational contents most and thought them useful for learning. Third, most of the students were positively aware of the necessity and learning effects of culinary education applications, and the response rate to utilize the application once a week was highest. Also, they hoped various recipes and simple cuisine and craftsman cooking. Therefore, the functions of SNS mostly often used by students should be added to promote interaction between teachers and students. And more contents should be made for students to use easily in moving or in their spare time. Furthermore, various videos of teaching and theoretical information should be included. And the applications focused on recipes and simple and craftsman cooking should be developed and uploaded on a school homepage and on popular portal sites so that students can easily utilize them.

Many people are now enjoying mobile games using various smartphone platforms. However, we have to develop games separately for each smart device platforms so far. Cocos2d-x, a game development framework is released to solve this problem. As a multiplatform version of the existing Cocos2d, Cocos2d-x can make one source code run on various platforms. It is an open software that is able to be used by everyone, and when using it, mobile games can be developed easily based on C++ and OpenGL. In this paper, we implemented a PC laboratory decorating game application, named ILove501, using Cocos2d-x. The 501 is a room number of our PC lab. ILove501 includes an educational feature of solving quizzes in order to highlight positive effects of game. For implementation of a multiplatform game, ILove501 was developed in Windows and iOS environment at the same time, and we verified the results of the execution by porting on a variety of devices such as Android, iPhone, iPad and Galaxy Tab.
