교육용 온라인 게임에서 몰입과 게임행동의도에 영향을 미치는 주요 요인에 대한 연구 = An analysis of the key factors in Flow and Game Play Intention of Educational Online Games

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study analyzed major factors which affected flow experience and game play intention in educational online games. Those learner-related factors and educational online game-related factors were expected to have an effect on the flow of educational online games. For this study, 110 students of four classes of fifth and sixth grade in ``G`` elementary school located in Gyeonggi-do, with the exception of insincere respondents and those who did not answer, were selected. In the correlation between flow`s sub-factors and each independent variable, ``playfulness``, ``exploratory behavior``, ``importance``, ``skill levels``, or ``arousal levels``, except for ``attitude toward computer use`` from sub-factors on the learner`s aspect showed a significant interaction statistically. Among educational online games` sub-factors, four factors of ``contents``, ``interactivity``, ``design`` and ``navigation`` showed a statistically significant correlation. Besides, as the result of analyzing the correlation between flow`s sub-factors and game play intention, all sub-factors correlated strongly with game play intention. In the meantime, the most influential factor having an effect on flow experience was ``playfulness`` and ``skill levels`` on the learner`s side, and ``contents`` on the side of educational online game. The more playful one becomes in a game; the higher one`s level of skill goes up; and the more necessary contents one has, the more he/she is likely to have flow experience. This study focused six factors related to learners and four factors related to educational online games as independent variables, both of which were expected to affect flow experience and game play intention; however, this is only part of lots of potential factors needed to have flow experience in educational online games, requiring a search for other factors. Moreover, it calls for further studies on the following: how learners can experience flow in educational online games; under which situation, flow experience can be promoted; and how flow experience affect users` learning through educational online games.
