  • By combining the elements of the game or game in education, it improves the interest of the students and improves academic achievement by creating an environment where they can participate directly. We propose a curriculum that can learn the core principles of the elementary curriculum through fusion. The proposed curriculum helps students to understand the principles of the elementary curriculum by learning the artificial intelligence method in board game form. Learning methods that incorporate such elements of the game will enable learners to learn the principles of IT so that they can develop their ability to understand objects from various perspectives and enhance their thinking skills. It is expected that the elementary artificial intelligence curriculum that incorporates the proposed gamification will contribute to the development of the information science curriculum, which has been highlighted recently from the 2015 curriculum.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of computer pointing game on the visual perception ability of children with severe intellectual disability. Based on a literature review, we developed a computer pointing game to improve visual perception ability, which consisted of three stages; catching a hamburger, catching a hamburger and a soda, and catching various foods. At each stage, different instructional models were applied by difficulty level of the contents. Experiments were performed among four children with severe intellectual disabilities for three weeks. They belonged to H public school in Kyeonggi, Korea. Their visual perceptions were quantitatively measured four times by utilizing the Korean Developmental Test of Visual Perception tool (K-DTVP-2). For qualitative evaluation, an observation assessment diary was written and analyzed. All four children at the fourth test showed better visual perception ability, compared with the ability at the first test. As a result of the analysis of the observation assessment, they were considered successful in their learning and ordinary life related to visual perception. It can be concluded that the computer pointing game may play a role in helping children with severe intellectual disabilities improve their visual perception ability.

  • In this paper, we present the results of implementing an interactive lecturer introduction game that allows new students or freshmen to learn about their lecturer's information using a Digital Game-based Learning (DGBL) methodology. This game provides information such as the lecturer's name, photo, the courses that they teach in the form of a quiz game, with Unity and PHP used as the development environment. Communication between the game, Content Management System (CMS), and the database is by using the REST API, which enables the administrator to manage the content of the game such as score and number of questions for each level, user's password, and performance threshold, as well as the lecturer's information itself. Since the developed interactive game uses an integrated CMS, the content can be updated dynamically according to the situation, therefore, it can be easily applied to other departments, as well as other various educational games.

  • This study is to develop a learning program supporting how to teach multi-level of students in number and operating field in the elementary school. Mathematics requires different teaching ways for various standards of student in the school. However, in most of elementary school teachers are having hard time giving the proper lesson for each student due to the lack of supplementary classes and the excessive numbers of students in a class. Thus this research provides "Game-type learning Program" and supports individual learning lessons to give each student an opportunity to form a correct concept of number and operation. This system sets up suitable steps for each student by checking their leaning progress and accomplishment. When a student has a trouble, can give a help or show specific things which could be related with the matter. As a result, students have got more interests in studying math, furthermore, actually, the help and giving a clue helped students a lot in settling the problems.

  • Recently, there has been active researches about building an artificial intelligence agent that can learn how to play a game by using re-enforcement learning. The performance of the learning can be diverse according to what kinds of deep learning activation functions they used when they train the agent. This paper compares the activation functions when we train our agent for learning how to play a 2D shooting game by using re-enforcement learning. We defined performance metrics to analyze the results and plotted them along a training time. As a result, we found ELU (Exponential Linear Unit) with a parameter 1.0 achieved best rewards than other activation functions. There was 23.6% gap between the best activation function and the worst activation function.

  • As the number of augmented reality games using augmented reality technology increases, the demands of users are also increasing. Game technologies used in augmented reality games are mainly games using MARKER, MARKERLESS, GPS, etc. Games using this technology can augment the background and other objects. To solve this problem, we want to help develop augmented reality games by analyzing objects in the background, which is an important element of augmented reality. To analyze the background in the augmented reality game, the background object was analyzed by applying a deep learning model using TensorFlow Lite in the UNITY engine. Using this result, we obtained the result that augmented objects can be placed in the game according to the types of objects analyzed in the background. By utilizing this research, it will be possible to develop advanced augmented reality games by augmenting objects that fit the background.

  • Games are widely used in many fields, but not all games are successful. Then what makes games successful? The question gave us the motivation of this paper, which is to identify critical factors for successful games with topic modeling technique. It is supposed that game reviews written by experts sit on abundant insights and topics of how games succeed. To excavate these insights and topics, latent Dirichlet allocation, a topic modeling analysis technique, was used. This statistical approach provided words that implicate topics behind them. Fifty topics were inferred based on these words, and these topics were categorized by stimulation-response-desiregoal (SRDG) model, which makes a streamlined flow of how players engage in video games. This approach can provide game designers with critical factors for successful games. Furthermore, from this research result, we are going to develop a model for immersive game experiences to explain why some games are more addictive than others and how successful gamification works.

  • Auto-playing programs are often used in behalf of human players in MMORPG(Massively Multi-player Online Role Playing Game). By playing automatically and continuously, it helps to speed up the game character's level-up process. However, the auto-playing programs, either software or hardware, do harm to games servers in various ways including abuse of resources. In this paper, we propose a way of detecting the auto programs by analyzing the window event sequences produced by the game players. In our proposed method, the event sequences are transformed into a set of attributes, and the Decision Tree learning is applied to classify the data represented by the set of attribute values into human or auto player. The results from experiments with several MMORPG show that the Decision Tree learning with proposed method can identify the auto-playing programs with high accuracy.

  • The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of the game application learning 8th graders' scientific attitude, which was utilized as a strategy to improve the teaching skills and methods in the lesson of 'the history of the earth and diastrophism'. The subjects of this study were 120 students of 8th grade at a middle school located in a metropolitan city in Korea. To start off with homogeneity of a group, this study recruited participants by the results of a diagnostic test taken early in the year and a mid-term examination taken at the end of April. As a result, a total of 4 male classes that showed similar results on the two tests were selected and divided into two groups: one in experimental and the other in control. In addition, the top 20% students and the low 20% students were chosen for comparison of their scientific attitudes based on the results of the mid-term examination. The traditional teachings were offered to the control groups while the experimental lessons with the game activities performed at the stages of application and summary in teaching were offered to the experimental groups over 10 periods. Results of the pre- and post-test on the students' scientific attitude demonstrated that there was a statistical significance between the two groups, which suggested that the experimental group showed a meaningful improvement in the scientific attitude after experimental intervention lesson activities with game applications. Also, the more meaningful improvement in the scientific attitude was found in the lower group than in the higher group. It implies that lessons with the game activities motivated the students to voluntarily participate in school science learning by enhancing their interests. Therefore, it is suggested that game application learning be a new teaching-learning material that helps to encourage learners to actively participate in middle school science learning.
