Abstract

This study is analyzed by comparing the evaluation of usability and study achievement for simulation learning based on Web 3D and VR and it is aimed to verify the characteristics of the virtual reality through a difference in studying effect between each learning method. Therefore, this study is analyzed by comparing the evaluation of usability and study achievement for the CSI Forensics Lab simulation content that has been developed in two learning methods for scientific experiments of DNA analysis with the 75 university students of Life Science as a population(Web 3D=37, VR=38). The results of the study, in usability of user task action, exploratory and navigation, Web 3D simulation learning was positive in a significant difference, but in usability of satisfaction, VR simulation learning was positive in a significant difference. In study achievement, Web 3D simulation learning was slightly higher but did not confirm the significant differences between both of learning.

본 연구는 웹 3D와 가상현실 기반 시뮬레이션 학습의 사용성 평가와 학업성취도를 비교분석하고, 각 학습방법 간의 학습효과 차이를 통해 가상현실 콘텐츠의 차별화된 특징을 확인하는 것이 목적이다. 이를 위해 생명과학전공 대학생 75명을 모집단(웹 3D=37, VR=38)으로, DNA 분석의 과학실험을 위해 두 가지 학습방법으로 개발된 Labster사의 CSI Forensics Lab 시뮬레이션 콘텐츠를 실험처치물로 학습자의 사용성 평가와 학업성취도를 비교분석하였다. 연구결과, 태스크 수행, 탐색과 내비게이션의 사용성 평가에서는 웹 3D 시뮬레이션 학습이 유의미한 차이로 긍정적이었으나 만족도의 사용성 평가에서는 가상현실 시뮬레이션 학습이 유의미한 차이로 보다 긍정적이었다. 학업성취도에서는 웹 3D 시뮬레이션 학습 평균이 다소 높았으나 두 학습 간 유의미한 차이를 확인하지 못했다.
