| Research Abstract |
Children enjoy communicating with others on the Role Playing Game (RPG). Moreover they are never aware of taking diagnosis tests. The computer software and the system between iPods and the electronic board intercommunication system of RPG have been developed with Voltec, an ICT company, Mr. Murata (the animator) and Newton Press, a publisher, under this research project. RPG system has connected the electronic board in class with iPods. The diagnostic tests on the game measured how much the students understand the communicative contents in class at once.
Each test and the RPG pilot version have been developed with the sound effects for three years. The RPG and the test have been carried out at some elementary schools. The research data has been collected and analyzed. The feedback from the analyzed result will be presented at some academic societies not only in Japan, but also in the world. The system is revised and rebuilt with the feedback, to make the system and RPG better.
