This study investigates the effectiveness of computer programming with KODU on problem-solving abilities of elementary school students. Diverse tools were developed for novice programmers to become more easy and comfort in learning a computer programming. Among them, KODU has focused on facilitating the programming of various multimedia applications to create games, animations and music videos etc. It is expected that KODU will help elementary school students to improve their problem-solving abilities through creating their own games, animation, and music etc. In this paper, we developed the educational program using KODU for teaching the elementary school students. The developed programming course was offered at the 5th grade students of a elementary school in Seoul and a total of 27 elementary school students were participated in our programming courses. Most of the students stated that the course was interesting, and their problem-solving ablilities were improved after the course from March 2014 through May 2014.

With the increase in interest in health in the society, a variety of fusion studies have been conducted by ICT to sports. This study develops a smart bicycle that is run only when a rider maintains balance, and proposes an interface of studio space where the smart bicycle can be experienced. The studio consists of interactive smart bike, a geodesic dome for immersion of content for a single person, and virtual reality content that is implemented to enjoy various sceneries in real space. This study contributes to attempts of design and production of studio that is optimized to interactive space of smart bike for single person. This studio has a scalable interface, which can be applicable to various other interactive contents for sportainmnet.

Emergence of new media platform had changed relationship between the broadcaster and the viewer, which used to form 'performer-audience' structure. This research has focused on the transition of 'streamer-viewer' role in single-media broadcasting, such as Youtube or Twitch, and identify how they progress group storytelling as a team. Walter Benjam and Leslie Marmon Silko's notion of 'story and storyteller' and Erving Goffman's 'social role theory' was used to define participants' role in new media broadcasting. channel, on Youtube, was selected and analyzed as example case. The domain of 'front stage' was broadened in recorded contents comparing to live streaming. The audience of live streaming is included to the front stage during the expansion. The role of streamer, game participant, and live stream contents viewer is also adjusted during the change, which leads to group-creation of the contents. Streamer plays a role of main-storyteller and suggest identity of the community. Game participants work as sub-storyteller, filling in the blank space in game storytelling and making it sophisticated. They also perform based on community's identity, which streamer has built in advance. Lastly, live steam viewers are intermittent sub-storyteller, which seldom add up the narrative. Though, their main role is to preserve identity of game broadcasting community by reacting according to community's identity. As a result, the game broadcasting narrative is developed by combining and adding up pieces of story made in different level and role of participants. The research redefine the role of viewer and storytelling method in new media, especially in single-person broadcasting. Considering the rapid shift in recent media and contents, a new approach to the streamer-veiwer role and group storytelling of this research can be one of the new method to analyze contents produced in new media, such as Youtube.

The purpose of this study is to activate rehabilitation exercises to prevent MCI (mild cognitive impairment) in the elderly at home. Through the convergence of AI and rehabilitation exercise, we will be able to provide integrated services of medical care and rehabilitation exercise that enable integrated health management by activating rehabilitation exercise linkage in medically vulnerable communities such as rural areas and establishing exercise data. To this end, as a convergence development plan for AI and rehabilitation exercise, interdisciplinary experts will participate to produce and distribute game and rehabilitation exercise instruction manuals by type to improve cognitive function and musculoskeletal function, and systematize rehabilitation exercise programs needed for the elderly at home. The development, operation, and education of physical fitness assessment manuals can be expanded and will be of great help in early prevention of dementia.

From the aspect that design should respond to the necessity of various cultural bases, design is important to be grafted to Korean traditional culture. This circumstance leads this study to clarify the plan of multimedia contents development of 'paintings and original forms of shaman spirit' in Korean shamanism as one of realistic re-illumination works for Korean cultural original forms. The main study results are conduded as followings through literature reviews, internet searches and case studies. First, 'the planning process' necessary for the development of scenarios, characters and multimedia contents are suggested based on the establishment of hierarchy structure among shaman spirits which are classified into necromancer, human being, nature and life after death. Second, relating to execution of process above, it is suggested that 'the strategic. plan by business items and its genres' such as blessing fancy goods, characters for mobile or game, scenarios for game or animation, online digital exorcisms, e-cards, e-talismans and so on. Finally, as future industrialization concerns, 'the industrial development plan' is suggested which can be extended to scenario-based original businesses such as game scenarios for online or mobile and heroism fictions. The study results highlight the fact that multimedia design approach are considered for expanding the target and scope of creative material for Korean cultural original forms. Future researches, based on the results of the study, are expected to be expanded to the various designerly-thinking approaches into 'Shaman' themes and rather to be re-illuminated to the development of Korean cultural original forms as a nation's strategic standpoint.

Today, It has developed actively e-learning according to web without time and place which increase of PC user with super-highway information network and various up-to-date information rapid growth. It has to provide the chance to student which will be able to practice and to think free and originative under liberal learning environment that learner can compose knowledge through various thinking by themselves. From the present paper, I would design e-learning system using TGT model of cooperative e-learning system that more effective studying through advantage of e-learning studying. I look forward to helping improvement of student's real ability as embody competitive games method by TGT model's basic theory of web-based.

In this paper, we developed a new MSRDS(Microsoft Robotics Developer Studio) simulator for a quadruped pet robot with synchronization of virtual and real robots. By using this simulator, it is possible to reduce time and cost for gait and motion design and it will help for commercialization of service pet robots. In the research point of view, the simulator can be used to examine the model differences between the virtual and the real robots. Since this simulator implements the coordinated control of the virtual and real robots, it can be used as an internet game using two remote pet robots.

종래의 입체음향 재생은 3개 이상의 여러대의 스피커를 이용하는 멀티 채널방식의 입체음향이 주류를 이루고 있다. 간혹, 2개의 스피커나 헤드폰을 이용하는 2채널방식으로 재생된 음향을 구현하는 시스템들이 개발되고 있으나 이는 주로 하드웨어를 기반으로 개발되고 있으며, 최근에 소프트웨어만으로 2채널방식의 입체음향을 구현하는 프로그램들이 외국에서 소개되고 있으나, 이들 제품들은 통합된 의미(방향감, 거리감, 공간감)의 입체음향을 구현하는 것이 아니라 잔향을 이용하는 공간감 생성에 국한되거나, 음상정위에 의한 방향감 생성에 국한되어 입체음향의 일부분 만을 생성하는 경우가 대부분이다. 따라서 순수한 소프트웨어만으로 구현된 하나의 프레임워크 내에서 통합된 의미의 2채널 방식의 입체음향을 생성하는 소프트웨어는 전무한 상태이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 GUI를 통해 3차원 공간상의 가상음원의 위치 및 이동 궤적과 가상공간(공간감)을 사용자가 지정하도록 사였으며, 위치 및 이동 정보의 입력은 시스템 정의 방식과 사용자 정의 방식으로 구분하여 각각 음상정위를 수행하도록 하였다. 또한 공간감을 위한 가상공간의 크기도 사용자가 임의로 정의할 수 있다. 입체음향으로 생성할 수 있는 GUI 환경을 제공하며, 저비용으로 효과적인 입체음향 컨텐트를 제작할 수 있도록 함으로써, 게임 및 멀티미디어 컨텐트 제작의 고부가가치화와 입체음향 기술의 산업화에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

편측무시란 뇌졸중 환자에게서 나타나는 지각 손상의 한 종류로 말초 운동 및 감각 신경의 손상과 상관없이 손상된 대뇌반구 반대변의 공간과 신체의 지각이 감소된 증상이다. 현재 편측무시환자에 대한 치료는 환자가 책상에 앉아 팔과 손가락만으로 치료를 하는 소운동적인 방법으로 한 가지 치료효과만 기대할 수 있고, 환자들 또한 지루함과 피곤함을 쉽게 느끼게 된다. 또한, 서서 활동하기 힘든 편측무시환자들은 적당한 재활/치료방법이 없고, 안전성 측면에서도 여러 가지 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 편측무시환자들이 앉아서 안전하게 재활/치료할 수 있는 재활도구를 개발하고자 한다. 특히, 지루한 재활프로그램에 게임요소들로 동기 및 흥미 유발하여 지속적으로 재활/치료를 하며 압력센서 기반의 시각재활과 신체재활의 복합적인 재활을 연구하고자 한다.
