Full textGame-based learning has become a topic of interest in education, especially within the science education community. Although some evidence supporting the effectiveness of digital games for science learning is emerging, the results overall have been largely inconclusive. In order to further advance research on game-based learning, the purpose of this study was to apply an interdisciplinary approach using the cognitive-affective integrated framework, the information-processing model of selective attention (Broadbent, 1958; Lachter et al., 2004), and the dual-process theories of cognition (Kahneman, 2011; Svahn, 2009), to construct a comprehensive view of the mental processes of visual attention during gameplay in relation to the positive affective state of Flow experience. This study utilized a mixed methods design, using a concurrent embedded strategy QUAN/qual (Creswell, 2008) to collect and analyze both quantitative and qualitative data. Thirty-one high-school students (N=31) in the mid-Atlantic region of the United States, between ages 14 and 17, played the Serious Educational Game (SEG) called Neuromatrix. Self-report surveys and an eye tracking method were used to collect quantitative data for statistical analysis. A gaze duration sequence diagram (Raschke, Chen, & Ertl, 2012) was adopted for data visualization and qualitative scanpath analysis. Two Flow scales (FSS-2 and eGameFlow) were used to explore the differences in psychometric properties between the generic and context-specific Flow measures. The results showed a negative linear relationship between visual attention and Flow experience (p < .001). Three visual attention variables were identified and served as the indicators of Flow and perceived science learning in an SEG environment: (a) low fixation counts indicated students’ focused attention and immersion in an SEG; (b) short total visit duration represented the efficiency of selective visual attention and may serve as an indicator of Flow experience during gameplay; and (c) total fixation duration illustrated the extent to which students looked at specific learning materials that could possibly pass through the selective filter into conscious attention and thus, lead to learning. The interplay between affective and cognitive processes during gameplay played a key role in students’ deep engagement and had an impact on their positive science learning in an SEG. An interactive effect of total fixation duration and Flow on perceived science learning was found (p < .001, pη2 = .324), implying that a well-designed SEG that aligns gameplay and learning objectives may promote synergy between engagement and learning. Moreover, two individual differences factors, science interest and self-efficacy for computer use (p < .01) – that predicted Flow were identified by a stepwise regression analysis; these factors were shown to influence the attentional processes and cognitive processes of gameplay. The evidence of a positive relationship between science interest and Flow in an SEG may encourage teachers and parents to take an active role in instilling students’ science interest in their early years, and to support students’ ongoing development of science interest through exposure to various formal and informal learning contexts.

Full textGiven society's increasingly technology centric play and workplace environment, Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOs) can be an excellent sandbox to develop future leaders of teams, which are the lifeblood of any organization. MMOs like World of WarCraft provide rich immersive experiences that allow leaders and followers the ability to create highly complex ecosystems that can mimic some of the largest out of game organizations. In game they can potentially gain valuable insights, which can later be applied to the workplace. This study explores Leadership characteristics appearing in and out of game. A combination of identity theories and leadership characteristics provide a greater understanding of possible relationships that may be occurring between leaders and followers; and in and out of multiplayer video game environments. Using transformational leadership as a framework, 6 leaders were interviewed, and assessed with the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ). Also, their guild communities were examined for evidence of leadership behaviors. The results found relationships between a leader's in and out of game characteristics with values and contexts in the workplace between leader, community, and follower. These relationships create and shape the lived experiences of leaders providing them the insights to create connections between relevant contexts in game with their workplace environment. This study identifies leadership stories, that can been employed in the workplace for the benefit of the organization; and the use group play spaces as a place to practice leadership operations of a business. Through these narratives, leaders can better understand the values that shape their identity; the relevant contexts that enabled the appearance of leadership characteristics in and out of game; and an opportunity to connect with a community aligned to teach leaders how to be.

In recent years, Internet applications and diversification driven by the popularity of broadband Internet, the traditional game industry is no longer limited to stand-alone version of the game platform, and transferred to the development of online game. The online game will bring more growth for the broadband access business and other content industries. And it will become an important profit source of Internet industry. In recent years, almost there are growing magnitude of space every year. According to the estimates by MIC , Taiwan's online game market (PC) is expected to reach 17.8 billion NT in 2013, and will be reached the size of the $ 20.8 billion in 2017.Taiwan will be the second largest market after South Korea's in Asia-Pacific region. Therefore, the game market is certainly flourish, but competition is becoming increasingly fierce. Farquhar (1989) pointed out that the brand apart as identification, but also to add value beyond the product features. Farquhar (1989) pointed out the brand apart from as identification, but also to add value beyond the product features. According to the report of World Marketing Research Organization BrandZ pointed out that the brand value of the top five are: 1.

Internet is one of the most powerful means of media in the 21st century. It influences different aspects of our life, including commercial behaviors, interpersonal relationship and even life style. Because of this, many issues are discussed, such as the characteristics of the internet virtual culture, the life style formed newly by the net, and the pressure of our working habits. The space created by the internet is changing the way of our thinking, our districts and even how we think about ourselves. The virtual world in online games also influences our life itself. Online games have gradually become more and more important to many people. And at the same time, Internet Addiction Disorder is found, which is getting more and more attention nowadays. Yet, nearly all local and overseas IAD surveys target on the college and high school students only. The point now is that online game users are found everywhere, and they are not only students. Therefore, this research, mainly serves as a pioneer, is focus on discussing the relationships between the working class and Internet Addiction Disorder. By means of interviews and questionnaires, I aim at finding out: (1) the present situation of how the working class involves in online games; (2) the motivation of the participation of the working class in playing online games; (3) the reasons contribute to the IDA of the working class. From the analysis of this research, it is believed that the largest working class group of the users of the online game 〝World of Warcraft〞is the young adults. Most of them have received higher education and they are more likely to work in the field of information technology. Many of them are single, so they are more likely to have more spare time in engaging in the online game. They are mainly motivated by seeking for entertainment for themselves, their preference to the content of the game, killing free time and alleviating their own pressure. Regarding to the Internet Addiction Disorder of the working class users, most of them show they are more likely to feel depressed when they have found that the internet cannot be assessed, or they are forced not to use the internet. On the other hand, the duration they assess to the game (and the longer the better), and whether they are satisfied with the game, have positive effects on themselves. It is also found that the main difference between working class players and student players is that the working class players tend to view the game as only one of their many spare time activities. The main purpose of playing the game is for entertaining as well as killing spare time. Their performance in their work and the maintenance of their family as well as the interpersonal relationship are not influenced by playing the online game.

The purpose of this study was to understand the relationship among online game behaviors, family atmosphere and creative tendency of vocational high school students in Taipei City and County. This study was conducted through questionnaire survey. Three assessment tools were implemented, which include “CAP/Test of Divergent Feeling” revised by Dr. Hsin-Tail Lin and Dr. Mu-Long Wang, the “Family Life Inventory” revised by this study and a self-developed “Online Game Inventory”. There were 500 student participants from 13 vocational high schools in Taipei City and County. The total number of valid return was 413 and with a valid return rate of 85.51%. The results showed that there were significant differences between family atmosphere and online game behaviors. It revealed that family atmosphere played a role in online game behaviors. Moreover, there were no significant differences between online game behaviors and creative tendency; however, the history of playing online games and the hours played per week had significant differences in the complexity factor of creativity. Additionally, there were no correlations between family atmosphere and creative tendency; but, it had correlations among brotherhood, function of family and interrelationships among family members. Based on the findings, it was suggested that parents could discuss and make rules with children for the time of playing online games as well as plan appropriate leisure activities together.

To survive under the bubble economy and great competition on the Internet, many enterprises are seeking to remain their old customers on one hand, and attract the new ones on the other hand. However, to do this, the enterprises will have to efficiently grasp the value of the online customers.

This relationship, barely explored in computer games, has existed in board games for decades, one of the first examples being Dungeons & Dragons, in which a game participant acts both as a referee and as a storyteller, controlling all aspects of the game, except for the actions of the players. Through the development of a game prototype, we found that there's value in including this asymmetry in computer games, and evaluated its viability and benefits/disadvantages.

Time, as one of most important factors in a successful construction project, can be traded between general contractor and subcontractors, as well as among subcontractors in sequential projects. In optimal case for trading time, they have reasonable incentive to cooperate. Moreover, relationships between general contractors and subcontractors – different level, and among subcontractors – same level as well also influent to their profit. The purpose of this study is to address the challenges in time management and finding the rational profit allocation among contractors. Based on game theory with Stackelberg model and Pareto optimal is applied to imitate complicated relationships in two-level game. Finally, a case study is represented to more comprehensively illustrate the problem. Results from utilization of the proposed model show that while optimizing total profit, all contractors can negotiate to fairly distribute benefits from cooperation in core space. The Shapley value and the nucleolus concepts can be suggested as well.
