Analysis of Child Computer Interaction in Edutainment and Simulation Games Application on Android Platform in Indonesia

Abstract

Child Computer Interaction (CCI) has become a challenge in utilizing the technology as education media. The increasing number of children, who use advanced gadgets in Indonesia such as smartphones and tablet PCs, provides a new space for developing interactive educational game application for kids. Indonesia is a country with the biggest number of Android-based game application downloaders in the world of service providers. Modeling serious game that has been chosen to deliver the concept is Edutainment and Simulation Games. This paper will analyze and review the application of the two concepts of the game, using data on the ranking from one of the top application service providers in analytic applications. The game application developers are expected to understand CCI and develop applications concepts that suit the needs of children in Indonesia. This will create market opportunities in the Indonesian game industry in the future.
