本研究の目的は，デジタルゲーム開発やデザインを専攻する学生の「ゲームの利用と満足」と創造性の関連性について検討することである.ゲームの利用と満足を把握するために，井口のゲームの利用と満足尺度を用い，「ゲ ームの利用と満足」と「創造性」に関連性があると仮説を設定した上で，調査を行った.その結果，「空想」，「承認」， 「達成」，「学習」が高い学生は創造性が有意に高い傾向が見られたが，「趣向」，「気晴らし」は他のゲームの利用と満足の因子および創造性との関連性は認められなかった.このことから，仮説が支持される結果が得られた.そして， (1) 「空想」，「承認」，「達成」，「学習」は創造性を喚起しうる可能性があること，(2) 「趣向」，「気晴らし」は独立した要因として考えられることが示唆された. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between "creativity" and "video game uses and gratifications" among students majoring in digital game development and design. To understand game use and satisfaction, we used Iguchi's Video Game Uses and Gratifications Scale and hypothesized that there is a relationship between "creativity" and "video game uses and gratifications," and accordingly, conducted a survey. The results revealed that students who scored high on "fantasy," "recognition," "achievement," and "study" tended to be significantly more creative, while "preference" and "diversion" were not associated with other game use and gratification factors or creativity. Thus, the results support the hypothesis. The findings suggested that (1) "fantasy," "recognition," "achievement," and "study" could stimulate creativity, and (2) "preference" and "diversion" could be considered as independent factors.

In this study, we developed an interactive educational tool to experience machine learning with image classification. In the development of actual Artificial Intelligence (AI), it's important to think about what situations AI can be used in without coding. This system is based on machine learning for image classification and was developed as an iPad application. By using this system, beginners can feel the usefulness of AI. And It also enables users to experience AI development.

This paper describes the virtual instrument "Musicurves" that plays sounds based on curves drawn on a blank score. The concept was to create a program that allows beginners to engage in both performing and composing music at the same time, by allowing the users to play sounds just by visually drawing their image of a melody as a line.

<p>The purpose of this paper is to report on the design and development of a Venn diagram and Yes/No chart learning system for fostering computational thinking and its evaluation. We developed a Yes/No chart learning system as a web application. This system was developed using HTML5 and vis.js. To evaluate this system's effectiveness, 20 university students and 4 high school students were given an experiential learning exercise. As a result, 18 students were able to use this system to explain the classification better. The median computational thinking score after using the system was significantly higher than the median computational thinking score before using the system. It was confirmed that this system is useful in fostering computational thinking through experiential learning.</p> The purpose of this paper is to report on the design and development of a Venn diagram and Yes/No chart learning system for fostering computational thinking and its evaluation.

In this study, the authors develop an iOS software 'n-Queens Problem for Education' and discuss its application in the promotion of computational thinking. As it has already been pointed out in [1] and [2], playing games and solving puzzles are effective in cultivating computational thinking, and our gaming software can be a good tool to cultivate skills regarding 'Generalization (Pattern Recognition), ' 'Abstraction;' and 'Algorithms' of computational thinking. Our software 'n-Queens Problem for Education' is based on the well-known 'The n-Queens Puzzle, ' which involves solving a puzzle of placing eight chess queens on an n × n chessboard so that they do not attack one another. This puzzle is a good way for students to learn computational thinking. Since this software shows the queens' moves and evaluates solutions, you can concentrate on using your brain without writing down the moves or erasing wrong solutions. In addition, this software has features such as the symmetry operations of rotation and reflection of the board that help users study their solutions.

This paper reports a development of a block programming environment enabling online peer assessment for promoting Collaborative Learning (CL). Many investigations about CL have indicated that peer assessment plays an important role for activation of CL. In this research, we develop a block programming environment. This environment consists of three systems, (1) a block assembly system, (2) a browsing system, and (3) a server system. Client side systems (the block assembly system and the browsing system) has been implemented by Blockly for novice programming learners. A part of the server system has been implemented by Firebase. This environment helps novice programming learners to program through CL.

To enhance an audience's immersive experience of a media artwork, it is important to provide the audience with more than one channel through which they can take the initiative to participate in the artwork. It is also crucial to provide a natural interaction between the artwork and its audience. Based on these ideas, we developed an interactive media artwork called "Find Kirigami!" inspired by kirigami, a traditional Japanese paper-cutting play activity. In this paper, we present the design of "Find Kirigami! and report some of the results of exhibiting the work.
