초록

본 연구는 과학 학습을 위한 기능성 게임(Serious Games)을 평가할 수 있는 도구를 개발 적용하여 우수한 기능성 게임의 특징을 찾는 데 그 목적이 있다. 기능성 게임에 대한 선행연구와 기존 교육용 게임과 소프트웨어 평가 도구를 분석하여 기능성 게임 평가 도구를 개발하였고, 초등교육 전문가 17명이 이 평가도구를 사용하여 과천 과학관 게임 '밀크 & 시리얼'을 평가하였다. 평가 결과를 분석한 결과를 바탕으로 도출한 우수한 기능성 게임의 특징은 다음과 같다. 학습 목표가 초등 과학 교육과정과 연계되어 타당도가 높고, 학습자의 동기를 강하게 유발시키는 요소를 가지고 있다. 또한 화면 구성이 깔끔하고 유용하다. 마지막으로 게임 반응속도가 좋고 지속적인 유지보수가 가능하며 경제적이고 윤리적이다. 과학 수업을 위해 기능성 게임을 개발하거나 수업 자료로 선택할 때에는 우수한 기능성 게임의 특징을 고려해야 할 것이다.

The main purpose of this research is to develop and apply an evaluation tool of serious games for science learning. To develop the evaluation tool, probing references and analyzing previously generated evaluation tools and softwares were carried out. After that, 17 experts in elementary science education appraised serious games, 'milc & seereal', made by Gwacheon National Science Museum with the evaluation tool. The findings on the characteristics of good serious games from assessments are as follows; The learning objects of the games are coincident with national science curriculum, they strongly stimulate the students' motivation, the interfaces are neat and pretty useful for users to get informations, games are easy to maintain, inexpensive, and moral. When we develop or select serious games for science class, the strengths of good games should be considered.
