Item A toy clinic shop: Innovation management in a Shin-Tai elementary school(2008-01-01) Hong, J. C.; Hwang, M.Y.; Liang, H.W.; Chang, H.W.In Taiwan there is a declining birth rate and a dramatic increase in the elderly population. There is also the trend of using school space that would otherwise be left unused. The experimental project “Toy Clinic Shop in Elementary School” offers an innovative management model for elementary schools to address these developments. The following are included in the project goals: lifelong learning, service learning, and intergenerational interaction. The Toy Clinic Shop is not only a place offering the opportunity for intergenerational contact, but also for sharing and learning from each other. When the elderly contribute to the shop, they enjoy being with children, and they can experience the so called Ta Tung world of utopia where they enjoy being with young people. Furthermore, schools can benefit from the project because it promotes a school's many functions, collects more resources, creates social value among retired people, and develops the human resource of the elderly.Item Playfulness-based design in educational games: A perspective on an evolutionary contest game(2009-01-01) Hong, J. C.; Hwang, M.Y.; Lu, C.H.; Cheng, C.L.; Lee, Y.C.; Lin, C.L.Playfulness steering is an emerging approach in educational game design and play. The integration of arithmetic computation, game strategy, and teamwork into one game allows players to interactively “steer” the playfulness and enhance learning. In this paper, an evolutionary contest game was designed and implemented to examine the influencing factors. Through action research, focus groups and hermeneutic methods, the results of this study suggest that the playfulness design of an evolutionary game is influenced by the degree of uncertainty, flexibility in decision making, the level of challenge, equal conditions for fair play, opportunities to compete/cooperate, and the level of interactivity.Item Assessing the educational values of digital games(2009-01-01) Hong, J. C.; Hwang, M.Y.; Cheng, C. L.; Lee, C. K.; Chang, S. Y.In recent years, digital games have assumed an important place in the lives of children and adolescents. Effective content design is crucial to the success of digital game-based learning. Therefore, the tool for assessing the effectiveness of game design is accordingly very important for parents and teachers, so that they may encourage or discourage students to play. The purpose of this study is to develop an assessment tool to examine the educational values of digital games. In the first phase of this research, the research team developed the indices for assessing the educational values of digital games. An expert panel consisting of game scholars and professional game designers was established to construct the indices for evaluating digital games in three focus group discussions. Seventy-four game evaluation indices were sorted into seven categories: mentality change, emotional fulfilment, knowledge enhancement, thinking skill development, interpersonal skill development, spatial ability development and bodily coordination. In the second phase of the research, the game designers were asked to assess certain games by using the 74 indices. Meanwhile, the game scholars were also asked to evaluate the same pool of games by the same indices. The assessments by both the scholars and designers were then compared and the similarities were found. This research provided a preliminary framework for future game designers, parents and teachers in assessing educational values of digital games.
