Game Industry

Games are a means of entertainment that are in electronic media such as smartphones that are made as attractive as possible so that players get inner satisfaction. The development of the game industry is growing quite fast from mobile to desktop. There are many categories of games such as action, strategy, sports, shooter, adventure and simulation. Adventure games are one category of games where players are trained to think in order to complete the game. There are many things that need to be considered, such as visuals on maps or interactions with NPCs (NonPlayer Character), by utilizing technology now learning can be delivered through a game. The characteristics of entertaining games and interesting visual activities will make learning more attractive. Making games will of course use algorithms as features or systems in game making. The a-star algorithm is one that is widely used in making maze games. The a-star algorithm can be applied to the help of the fastest path or movement of the NPC. The purpose of the research is to make a maze educational game using the a-star algorithm as the fastest path search and NPC movement. The test results on games on seven devices got the results that they were successfully run, in CPU usage on mobile devices a minimum of 7% and a maximum of 57%. CPU usage on desktop devices is a minimum of 2% and a maximum of 33%.

Purpose The range of official business that can be handled online has grown in the recent decade. In many cases, e-services are a must. At the same time, the economic impact and social importance of mobile technology have increased. Mobile devices are becoming more and more popular, and their applications diversify. It comes as no surprise that mobile users expect e-services and official information to be available through this channel. The purpose of this paper is to identify problems (difficulties) occurring when browsing websites of local government units (LGU) on mobile devices. Design/methodology/approach The comfort of website browsing depends mostly on the development technique, and the way content is published. Responsive websites are much easier to view on mobile devices than “static” ones. The study involves 400 websites of LGU in Poland. The websites were subjected to quantitative and qualitative analyses with selected techniques and computer tools. Findings The set of 400 websites contained 119 (29.75%) that were not responsive. It exhibited a substantial potential for the optimisation of websites for mobile devices. The study revealed the most common usability failures such as distorted images, “scattered icons”, partial responsiveness and bothersome messages in pop-ups. Originality/value The research identified the most widespread problems with the tested websites. The study yielded recommendations for local governments, which may be useful when managing content, upgrading the website or replacing it with a new one.

Teaching Pronunciation

Video captioning is a useful tool for language learning. In the literature, video captioning has been investigated by many studies and the results indicated that video captioning may foster vocabulary learning. Most of the previous studies have investigated the effect of full captions on vocabulary learning. One of the key aspects of vocabulary learning is pronunciation. However, the use of mobile devices for teaching pronunciation has not been investigated conclusively. Therefore, this paper attempts to examine the effect of implementing keyword video captioning on L2 pronunciation using mobile devices. Thirty-four Arab EFL university learners participated in this study and were randomly assigned to two groups (key-word captioned video and full captioned video). The study is an experimental one in which pre- and post-tests were administered to both groups. The results indicated that keyword captioning is a useful mode to improve learner’s pronunciation. The post test results indicate that there was no statistically significant difference between the two modes of captioning on vocabulary learning. However, learners at keyword video captioning performed better that full video captioning.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the difference between evaluations of the educational game materials and poster practices by students’ own peers and by expert educators using the rubrics created by expert educators and students together. Study included 10 students and 3 educators attended educational game materials course. Students were informed about basic skills of movement, game, game types, game equipment, analytical rubric, and educational game lectures were given to the students for 6 weeks and 80 minutes each week. 12-question knowledge test was used regarding educational games, analytical scoring rubrics, developing game materials and preparing posters. Materials and posters presented in the course were recorded. Evaluation scales were selected by students and expert teachers. Selected peers and educators evaluated 25 videos. One-way analysis of variance and correlation analysis were used for the reliability and repeatability measurements of the students and teachers. R values of 0.96-0.92 were found between students and 0.78-0.86 between educators. For knowledge tests of the groups, according to Wilcoxon paired two-sample test, there was a significant difference in test results (p<.05). The t test was used in the results of the student and educator video evaluations and there was no significant difference between the scores given by the expert educators and the students to the material and poster presentations (p>.05). In conclusion, this study showed that students could make evaluations as good as expert educators when given an answer key such as a scoring rubric that will help them in the evaluation.

New Learning

Japanese is a different language because it uses the letters Katakana and Hiragana. Japanese learning at the Kansai Vocational School Pekanbaru encountered several obstacles including the lack of learning facilities and a learning atmosphere that tends to be boring so that many students have difficulty learning and choosing to play games. Educational games on mobile devices are a new learning method that is considered to be more attractive to someone to learn. Fisher-Yates is a randomization technique on questions so questions that come out will be different and can be generated without repetition and duplication. Fuzzy Tsukamoto is a method used in decision-making to determine the score at the end of the quiz. From this research, it can be found that Fisher-Yates can determine the randomization solution that is not multiple and varied object randomization. Fuzzy Tsukamoto has a fairly good accuracy between calculations based on the system and calculations manually, although it does not show results that are 100% the same in each calculation. Educational game recognizing the letters Katakana and Hiragana is expected to help students overcome difficulties in understanding and learning Japanese related to the mastery of the letters Katakana and Hiragana.

Abstract: Participation with new mobile devices drives new social practices. This article engages in a close analysis of a so-called participatory culture surrounding iPods and iPhones. It offers close rhetorical readings of object phenomena including advertisements, Canadian news stories, and consumer reactions in electronic media. More specifically, this article reveals a rhetorical transformation between the iPod Silhouettes advertising campaign and the iPhone release campaign, causing a shift in subjectivity; iPod subjects are afforded a degree of freedom and play, while iPhone subjects are bound to regimes of work. It is also argued that news stories that emerged in the summer of 2007, when the iPhone was not released in Canada, structure a rhetoric of the “excluded Canadian.” Keywords: Mobile communication; Rhetoric; Visual communication
