This study examined the effects of picture storybook making activities with computer plays on children's storytelling ability and creativity. Seventy 5-year-old children from two day-care classes participated in this eight-week program. The experimental class used the computer software of 'Stanley's Sticker Stories.' The comparison class used paper and pencil. Data analysis was implemented by ANCOVA and t-test. Significant differences were found between the experimental and comparison groups in story telling ability by story structure, imagination, vocabulary, sentence structure, and creativity showing that picture storybook making activities with the computer was more effective than traditional picture storybook making activities.

The objective of this study is to understand the effects of storybook making activity based on masterpiece appreciation on the language expression and picture appreciation ability of young children. Targeting 47 five year-old children of S & A kindergartens in Gwangju Metropolitan City, they were randomly assigned like 23 children for experimental group and 24 for comparative group. The experimental group performed the storybook making activity based on masterpiece appreciation for four sessions within 12 weeks while the comparative group expressed their feelings and thought into painting after appreciating masterpieces during the same period of time. Using SPSS 18.0 Program for the collected data, t-test was conducted for differences in the results of language expression and picture appreciation ability. The results of this study are as follows. First, the storybook making activity based on masterpiece appreciation had significant effects on the whole language expression except for sentence length, and it improved the language expression of young children. Second, the storybook making activity based on masterpiece appreciation had significant effects on the overall picture appreciation ability, and it improved the picture appreciation ability of young children. Such results imply that the whole process of appreciating masterpieces and making/appreciating storybook by expressing pre/post stories of painting into writing and drawing would be an effective teaching/learning method for the improvement of language expression and picture appreciation ability of young children.

We In this study, We tested for artificial intelligence-based virtual space story books were planned. The proposed virtual space concept, a story book with the characteristics of Augmented Virtuality, was implemented Several steps are needed to proceed with the virtual space storybook's story. First, a user brings a real object in to virtual space and recognizes the real object with an artificial intelligence-based object-recognition software. Second, when object recognition progresses, the virtual 3D model is augmented in the virtual space, which is then inserted into the virtual space and rendered. Finally, software projected a virtual space storybook on the desk in which users can touch and select real-objects. This virtual space storybook was implemented using the new story-making technology by applying the virtual space concept. the Augmented Virtuality concept is to augment real objects based on virtual space. To confirm this we tested a user test using the virtual space storybook. the user seemed as if can the distinction between real objects and virtual images. Also very well and that understood the process of putting the real objects in virtual space.
