오늘날 스마트 시대의 새로운 소프트웨어 페러다임으로 변화하고 있는 IT 산업의 환경에서 소프트웨어를 사용하는 사용자와 공급하는 개발자 모두 품질 향상에 대한 중요성과 복잡성은 더욱 강조되어 가고 있다. 특히, 국내 게임시장의 절대적 시장점유율을 보이고 있는 온라인 게임의 경우 게임 사용자들과의 지속적인 관계 유지를 필요로 하는 서비스 제품이기 때문에 높은 수준의 품질보증이 절대적으로 필요하다. 본 연구는 이와 같은 필요성에 따라 게임 품질관리를 위한 정량적/정성적 게임성 평가 항목을 연구하여 이를 기반으로 한 게임성을 평가하기 위한 평가 모델을 제시한다.

This study approaches how newly emerged game companies has implemented strategies for product diversification according to market growth cycle(beginninggrowing-mature) by empirical case study through evolutionary theory and resource based theory approach. At the beginning, online game companies had grown with different strategies(technology based, service based) by initial condition(genre, technological level, user attribute). After market growth, for product diversification, these companies carried out path-dependent alliance strategy(complementary, competitive) depending on resource base(technology capacity, service capacity based). As online game market getting mature, these companies has adapted flexibly in responding to market growth cycle by integrated strategy(naturally selected to mobilize every possible resource capability). By analyzing the alliance strategies pattern of online game companies in newly emerged game industry according to market growth cycle through combination of resource based theory and evolutionary theory, these results suggest that new industrial, theoretical, policy model is required.

This study was conducted to understand the relationship between teacher's game recognition types and the acceptance of student game use in school. We surveyed 250 elementary/middle/high school teachers, school counselors and professional counselors. Four game recognition types have differences in gender, age, game experience, attitude toward game, response to game, and the evaluation of academic influence. When we compared the acceptance of student game use according to teacher's game recognition types, the differences in 'need for supervision', 'willingness to use', 'concern and monitoring' and 'acceptance as alternative activities' were identified. However, all types showed low scores of 'acceptance efficacy'. Finally, we discussed what kind of support would be effective to increase the acceptance of game use in school.
