Although learners learn with the same educational games, they show differences in successes. This is because they do not share the same individual characteristics. Currently, there are various studies conducted on effective education according to gender among other characteristics of learners off-line. When this effective educational method according to gender is applied to educational games, it will create more effective outcomes. In addition, this study observed the effective educational method according to gender and learning styles. Through the observation, the considering factors for educational game designs according to the learners' gender was defined. These considering factors were categorized into cognitive and perceptive factors, with each definitions reflected on the characteristics of each gender. This study has its meanings in that it has conducted theoretical results of the considering factors for educational game designs based on reference studies. This study will be utilized as a reference study when designing various games.

G-러닝 게임은 게임의 집중력과 재미 요소를 기반으로 학습의 목적을 가진 콘텐츠로, 최근 아동 교육용 G-러닝 게임의 시장 규모가 증가하고 있다. 그러나 기존에 연구된 G-러닝 게임은 교육성과 게임성의 디자인 방향이 일치하지 않아 균형 있는 효과를 기대하기 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 초등학교 4학년을 대상의 분수 학습을 위한 G-러닝 게임의 게임디자인 방법을 논한다. 분수 개념은 4학년 교과 과정 중 학습 난이도가 높고 이해가 어려워 단순 교수법보다 구성주의 학습법이 적합하다. 게임과 교육의 융합을 위한 디자인의 일환으로 G-Math 게임을 개발하였다. G-Math 게임은 구성주의 학습방법을 기초하여 ETC(탐구, 협동, 대화, 이해)이론으로 디자인 하였다. 본 연구는 G러닝 게임의 교육성과 게임성을 융합함과 동시에 효과적인 학습 방법을 디자인함으로서 G-Math에 특화된 콘텐츠를 제공한다.

This paper presents an interactive educational game design procedure using the DGBL (Digital Game-based Learning) methodology that will help developers to design a multipurpose educational game. The DGBL consists of five stages, which are Analysis, Design, Development, Quality Assurance, and Implementation & Evaluation. This paper is focusing only on the specific technologies included in the Analysis and Design stages based on the DGBL. The first Analysis stage consists of gathering requirements, determining game ideation and learning objectives, and the second Design stage consists of defining the game architecture and database scheme. In this paper, we have designed a lecturers introduction game for a new student or freshmen as a case study to apply the Analysis and Design stages based on DGBL, as well as showing the prototype result in the form of a storyboard.

The quality of the game can be evaluated by its fun and functional stability. Among them, the quality area for fun is the essence of the game, so it is a very important factor to be considered from the point of view of a game designer. Usually, fun games with high originality and immersion are designed in the early stages of development, such as idea generation and concept setting. At this time, making it possible to verify the fun factor of the game has an important influence on the success of the game. In this study, the case of using PIT technique when teaching fun element design to students who are starting to study game design was introduced and the effect was analyzed. It is expected that the PIT technique will be used more actively in the game design education field for high-quality and fun game design.

The learning and cognition of preschool children begins with the color of the object, and the game interface is the child's first impression of the game, so reasonable color design is needed. This article selects 10 educational mobile game for preschool children, extracts colors from the game interface and startup icons, and puts them into Photoshop to analyze the three elements of color hue, lightness, and saturation. Finally, three suggestions are put forward for the color design of game UI. 1.Choose a color similar to the actual color of the thing. 2. Choose warm colors according to your child's preferences. 3. When using contrasting colors, please reduce the brightness or purity of the colors. It is hoped that the research conclusions can provide reference materials for the color design of educational game UI for preschool children.

The game industry, which is based on high technology, requires specialized personnel. In particular, game graphic design, which occupies the visual area of games, is a fusion of technology and design. In this study, we classify and analyze the curriculum status of US and Korean game - related universities, which is the world 's top game industry. US universities ranked 10 universities in the ranking through official evaluation agencies, and Korea compared 10 universities with relatively well-publicized educational courses through the official homepage. In this analysis, it is necessary to study the curriculum that can complement the creativity and flexibility of game graphic design course by preparing creative subjects for securing professors who have experience in field work and developing various game graphic designs.

The interests of education methods using Serious games have been increasing recently. But resu,lt-oriented game design framework have not been reflected intrinsic motivation. To increase usage of educational serious game as resource, it is needed game design framework for providing the immersion and collaborative active learning that cognitive Psychologic theories recommend. By outlining the background of the serious game design framework and exemplifying its use, a constructive structure to examine purposed based games is introduced.

The domestic game industry has constantly developed in a short time by concentrating on online games, and keeps growing as a highly added value industry. Also, in the social aspect, it has been seeking various alternatives to place online games as positive and new play culture in the digital era by avoiding negative criticism on game addictiveness. One of important factors in expanding the infrastructure of the game industry and developing it as a type of culture is not simply to develop the existing core genres (on the basis of profits), but to promote the approach of mixture with various contents and of positive functions and thereby enlarge users through various game genres. That is, it is to design games with positive themes and easy immersion by targeting a variety of game users. Such expansion of game design approach is a starting point to develop the infrastructure of the game industry. In the aspect, training professional human resources on the basis of academic and educational process is of significance. Therefore, this work was intended to suggest examples of design approach education based on creativity subject among various subjects with positive functions, and then propose an education process to which Capstone design education contents were applied.

본 연구는 교육용 가상현실 게임 튜토리얼 인터페이스 구성 요소와 고려사항을 파악하여 튜토리얼 인터페이스를 디자인하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 현재 개발 중인 가상현실 교육용 게임 콘텐츠를 기반으로 튜토리얼이 제공되어야 하는 사용자 과업을 도출하였다. 그 후 상용화된 가상현실 게임을 직접 사용해 봄으로써 가상현실 게임 튜토리얼의 구성 요소를 파악하였다. 대부분의 가상현실 게임 튜토리얼은 텍스트 형태의 게임 방식과 컨트롤러 그림 기반의 인터페이스 설명으로 구성되어 있었다. 문헌조사를 통해 가상현실 게임에서 튜토리얼 인터페이스 설계 시 고려되어야 하는 디자인 요소를 분석하였고, 중앙으로부터 콘텐츠를 편안하게 볼 수 있는 범위는 좌우 약 -77도 ~ 77도에 위치되어야 함을 확인하였다. 또한, 텍스트, 버튼, 색상 요소에 관한 가상현실 인터페이스 디자인 원칙도 함께 수집하여 정리함으로써, 최종적으로 사용자 과업에 따른 가상현실 게임 튜토리얼 인터페이스를 디자인하였다. 본 연구는 추후 가상현실 게임 튜토리얼 인터페이스 제작 시 유용할 것으로 기대된다.
