Outdoor play for young children can promote the development of physical development, emotional development, and creativity development. However, due to safety accidents that occur in outdoor play, outdoor play is not progressed sufficiently. In this paper, we have developed smart functional educational games for AR education which can be easily used in early childhood education. In order to maximize the educational effect of the developed game and to provide customized education on the field, we conducted a focus group interview with a group of in - service child care teachers in the game design stage. Through this, we developed a functional game with AR system and verified the educational effect.

Occupational self-efficacy is one of the factors necessary for successful occupational rehabilitation of persons with intellectual disabilities. In this research, we investigated to see whether participating in a game-based training for job affects occupational self-efficacy. We compared a group who played a job-training game during traditional training with a group who participated only in traditional training. The results indicate that overall occupational self-efficacy of the game-based training group was affected significantly compared to the control group. Among the four subcategories, problem solving self efficacy and stress management self-efficacy showed significant improvement.

The generation who have had experienced computer games while growing up, are called game generation. The game generation has quite different styles of thinking and behavior from other generations. But present education methods for the game generation are not basically different from the education methods for other generations. Prensky argued that digital game-based learning is one of the few ways to meet the needs of the information age for the game generation. In this paper, we analyze the suitability of 4 design methods for educational games in comparison which were selected by the literatures survey. The suitability analysis was performed on the overall design method, the game design method, the education design method, the explicit of the design method, and the pros and cons. We suggest research topics on design methods for educational games which are needed to research in the future, based on the analyzed results.

Gamifications offer utilities that may have potential to support convergence to become more engaged on their filed. This paper aims to design and implement gamification for the supporting of environment education based on the extended cooperation. We describe game mechanics, the system architecture, and its MDA model, finalizing with a small conclusion. We also discuss the implications of our work for the gamification that support the identified features and activate environment education. The result will be a framework for designing a gamification system that is suited for environment education. Ease, familiarity, relatedness, comfort, and usefulness were confirmed by the opinion polling. Our prototype has updated by reflecting their views and opinions.

In this study, an educational game named "Jumbini 2: Mountain Rescue Operation" is compared and analyzed as a case of highly effective educational as well as significant popular game. In order to develop effective game software for education, stories and structure elements of the game are examined. Significant results are found on aspects of value and effect as an educational game, analyzing based on goal, rule, competition, challenge, fantasy, safety and fun, which are general elements for educational games.

At present, educational serious games which are designed for educational purpose including funny element have been developed in korea. This paper proposes a history educational game and describes how to make history educational game using OGRE engine. The OGRE engine is public, and widely used in many universities. Methods of the proposed game's development include development environment, desired plan, game scenario, game interface, method to cooperate with physics engine and so on. The proposed game is played in performing a mission that is based on historical event of our country in itself. And discrimination of the proposed game is to set a quest with actual historical events, in order to learn history beyond the simple fun in the existing history educational games. This paper should be helpful to discrimination of history educational serious game and developers to create history educational serious game with OGRE engine.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of Kahoot!(Game-based Student Response System) on nursing education. This study used an one group Pretest-posttest design. Participants were 179 nursing students from one D university located in Gwangju, Korea. The Kahoot!(Game-based Student Response System) was provided for 6 times. Data were collected between August 26 and October 25, 2019. The collected data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, paired t-test, pearson's correlation coefficient and stepwise multiple regression using IBM SPSS 21.0 program. The results showed that learning engagement(t=-6.257, p=.000) was significantly higher than levels before Kahoot!(Game-based Student Response System), critical thinking disposition(t=-2.163, p=.032) was significantly higher than levels before Kahoot!(Game-based Student Response System), problem solving ability(t=-3.032, p=.003) was significantly higher than levels before Kahoot!(Game-based Student Response System). Significant relationships were found among learning engagement(r=.375, p=.000), critical thinking disposition(r=.286, p=.000), problem solving ability(r=.291, p=.000) and learning satisfaction. The results of stepwise multiple regression indicates that learning engagement(β=.307, p=.000), problem solving ability(β=.158, p=.041) predicts 15.2% in learning satisfaction(F=16.905, p=.000). In conclusion, Kahoot!(Game-based Student Response System) is effective in improving learning engagement and problem solving ability to nursing education.

Programming education generally includes problem analysis process, automation through algorithms and programming, and generalization process. It is a good software education method for students in improving computing thinking. However, it was found that beginners had difficulties in understanding instruction usage, writing algorithms, and implementing programming. In this study, we developed a game programming education model and curriculum for programming education of pre-service teachers. The 4E model consisted of empathy, exploration, engagement and evaluation. In addition, it is configured to learn game core elements and core command blocks by each stage. To help the pre-service teachers understand the use of various programming blocks, a three-step teaching and learning method was presented, consisting of example learning, self-game creation, and team-based projects. As a result of applying and verifying the curriculum for 15 weeks, it showed significant results in the 4E model and pre-service teachers' perception of block programming competence and the level of computational thinking on the submitted game project results was also high.

To enhance the effect of learning in vocabulary learning, it is important first of all for learner to take active learning and be interested in learning, not cramming education. Due to this background, the instructor sometimes takes advantage of the game concepts in producing the courseware for vocabulary learning. But because of overwhelming overload in making the game-based courseware, it have been not made practical application to vocabulary learning. In this research, we study on the strategy for making practical application of the game concept to producing the courseware for vocabulary learning. And, based on the strategy, we design and implement the authoring tool of courseware for vocabulary learning based on crossword puzzle game. This tool enables instructor to produce the courseware based on crossword puzzle game easily and quickly and to make efficiently the courseware for vocabulary learning with level.

Generally, a Learning Games made based on Off-line. But Today, Web based learning has been used for many educational system by aid of the development of internet technique. If Off-line learning game serviced by On-line learning game, can provide learner with interesting and growing learner's study will. In this paper, I design the Mathematical of Elementary school Roll playing game for learning based on On-line. This is matched the point of On-line game with the point of Learning. A Learner's mathematical technic will be improve by The Mathematical On-line Roll playing game for Elementary school student. A student's ability of self directed learning and solving problem is expended too.
