In the age of low fertility and aging society, youth suicide is not the problem of a certain class but it should be recognized as an urgent and important social problem to be solved by our society. We aim to support the training of youth gatekeeper who can acquire the right attitude and understanding of suicide for adolescents, detect premature suicide signs of peer friends and link them to specialized institutions. In this paper, we propose a scenario based learning program that is linked to the concrete situation that the young people can sympathize with and a serious educational game of visual novel type that encourages participation of youth. We expect that the proposed serious game will improve the accessibility of educational facilities and youths through smart devices.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of contents for the serious game development of the customized diet education in Type II Diabetes. Because the development of the existing serious game focuses on Type I Diabetes, this study was designed to carry out customized education through the interaction between Type II Diabetes and health manager. The period of data collection was from July 11 to December 26 in Y2015, the subjects were selected from a total of 26 people suitable for Type II diabetes who visited the public health center to apply for a diabetic diet education and completed the 8 continued education. After receiving customized diet prototype education, the self-care behaviors and HbA1C of the subjects were statistically significantly increased(p<.05)

In 2016, we developed serious content for diabetes (Roly Poly 160) for diabetes, and then revised and supplemented them to serious game contents for self-care throughout diabetes, reflecting the needs of diabetes and health educators. We investigated the clinical efficacy. This study was one-group pretest-posttest design, 49 people with diabetes who were admitted to a hospital in the G region were given self-management training through 'Roly Poly 160' for 5 days, from February 27 to April 21, 2017, once a day. As a result of the study, the fasting blood glucose level and the postprandial blood glucose level of the subjects were significantly decreased (p<.000), and the self-efficacy and cognitive function were significantly increased (p<.000).

This paper introduces a serious game called freCman developed for C programming language beginners. Since key words, syntax, and programming structure of C programming language are unfamiliar for them, they feel uneasy and have many difficulties to study. We developed three games such as shooting star C, finding hidden errors, unscrambling C codes through which C beginners can study C language easily. Also we developed CTS(Code to Speech) which speeches C source codes like English statements so that C beginners can be familiar with C key words and statements. To prove effectiveness of the freCman, some experiments have been conducted with C language beginners. Experiment results show that the freCman helps beginners studying C programming language much.

This paper designs a serious game for rehabilitation of patients with body pains because they sit down for a long time in the same position, or less physical movement. Activity-based game induces to player improvements in physical exercise with fun elements of the game through entertainment to help the body function and substantially increases the player's commitment during challenging goal. This research is a game design that combines the treatment of color and movement of body to the rhythm of the music. We constructed with XNA Game Studio and KINECT interface with gesture recognition technology. We need to research of evaluation system and test for the actual effect of the treatment and advanced functions of game playes like adding various musics and variety of motion.

Digital interactives in museums are expanding and user experience is becoming the focus of exhibition design. The purpose of this study was to suggest guidelines for serious games as a part of museum exhibits. To achieve this, studies on museum education, public space HCI, serious games, and universal design were analyzed by using content analysis methods. Results included 16 quality standards from cognitive, physical, and personal/social models. The findings from this study could benefit the design of future museum gaming interactives.

To do an experimental analysis in this paper, we divided two non-equivalent control groups, such as pre and post test groups for difference listening types by serious game contents. From these test groups, we can achieve the most ability of its activity quotient (ACQ) effect is a phonic type and the next one is an aural type. The purpose of this paper is focused on the quantitative analysis of the human's brain quotient (BQ) derived from serious educational game contents.

Construction safety training has mostly relied on one-way transference of instructors' knowledge to trainees through traditional media such as textbooks and lecture slides. However, safety knowledge could be more effectively acquired in experiential situations. The authors proposed a serious game to provide a comprehensive safety training environment. Trainees who assume the roles of safety inspectors in the game explore a virtual construction site to identify potential hazards and learn from the contents of feedback created by the game as a result of trainees' input. The paper reports details of the game design and development process. The test results indicated that trainees were motivated to refresh their safety knowledge, increased their learning interests, and enjoyed the learning process. In addition, trainees showed positive attitudes towards using the game scoring as a way of evaluating their safety knowledge. The test results encouraged the continuous development of the game.
