현재 게임 역사를 보면 조이스틱의 인기가 눈에 띄게 떨어졌음을 알 수 있다. 비행 시뮬레이션 장르의 게임의 수가 적어지고 있기 때문이다. 조이스틱들은 일인용 슈팅 게임을 지원하지만 마우스나 컴퓨터 키보드에 견주어 보면 정확성이 떨어진다. 최근에 나온 소수의 게임들은 콘솔 PC와 연계가 되지만 PC 사용자들에게 자동 발사 기능을 사용할 것을 요구함으로써 사용자들에게 불편을 주었다. 본 연구는 기존의 게임 컨트롤러 구성요소를 분석하고, 아동의 조작능력과 신체발달과의 상호관계를 통해 아동의 놀이 발달기별 특징에 적합한 게임 컨트롤러를 개발한다는 것을 목적으로 한다.

This study was conducted to evaluate the usability of serious-game apps for robots that are being developed for hospitals to add familiarity to hospital life for hospitalized patients. We conducted a usability test of 10 experts and 12 elementary school students with inpatient experience. The usability evaluation of the developed apps was based on the professional (MARS) evaluation tool and the user (uMARS) evaluation tool. The results of the usability test of the serious game robot app were $3.67{\pm}0.342$ for professionals and $3.68{\pm}0.592$ for children. The expert group obtained the highest score in the aesthetics category, and the user group obtained the highest score in the functionality category. In the subjective comments, the experts pointed out the game layout and the consistency of the style. According to the children, the methods were easy to learn, and the screen movement was mainly described. Both groups received low ratings in terms of engagement through participation. This study will provide useful reference material when the functional game app is actually installed in the robot and the usability test is conducted again after the results obtained in this study are considered.

컴퓨터를 이용한 교육용소프트웨어인 코스웨어는 컴퓨터를 이용한 반복학습과 교사가 없이도 학습을 할 수 있다는 점에서 좋으나 학생에게 흥미를 유발하여 능동적인 교육을 하기에는 다소 부족한 점이 있다. 코스웨어와 게임의 결합인 교육용게임은 자발성, 흥미성, 교육성을 부여한다는 점에서 차별화를 가져올 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 미취학아동을 위한 기존 산수 교육용게임의 문제점을 해결하기 위한 방법을 제안한다.

The reality is that existing games are commercial or violent rather than informative. So, such a phenomenon resulted in many social problems. To solve such problems, I designed and implemented a game which is not violent but educative and child-friendly. In this thesis, an educative game is defined and its characteristics are described. I designed the user interface of the game for children, proposed relevant algorithms, and showed resultant screens of the game. Also, I compared the game with the existing games in order to prove that my game is non-violent, non-commercial, and rather educative. This ladder rejection game is different from the existing game in terms of design, functions, and contents of the screen. This paper contains specific explanations about the supplemented ladder rejection game. First, the design of this ladder rejection game extended fundamental principles of the existing game and added new diverse functions.
