Abstract

SNS has been emerged as an effective educational tool in college and many studies on various teaching models and methodologies have been made in order to utilize SNS in education. The purpose of this paper is to empirically investigate the effect of affecting factors of SNS on learner's attitude, intention to re-use and performance in converging college educational environment. Self-efficacy on media usage, educational expectancy, subjective norm, habit, and enjoyment were identified as affecting factors based on prior researches. An empirical analysis was attempted by survey targeting college students. The results of structural equation model using Smart PLS shows that educational expectancy, subjective norm, and enjoyment are significantly related to the learner's attitude on use of SNS in college education, but Self-efficacy on media usage and habit are not. Learner's attitude on SNS in college education was found to be significantly related to the intention to continuous use and performance. This study implicates that using SNS in university class makes learner's attitude positively and finally lead to good performance. The analysis results can provide a guideline of effective strategy for SNS utilization in college education.

SNS는 의사소통의 도구 뿐 아니라 대학 교육에까지 스며들고 있으며, SNS의 효과적인 활용을 위해 다양한 교수학습 모형과 방법에 대한 시도가 이뤄지고 있다. 이러한 맥락에서 본 연구는 대학 수업에서의 SNS 활용이 학습자의 태도, 지속적 이용 의도 및 성과에 미치는 영향을 실증적으로 분석하고자 하는 것이다. 기존 연구를 토대로 매체활용 효능감, 교육적 기대가치, 주관적 규범, 습관, 즐거움을 학습자의 SNS 활용 요인으로 도출하였다. 수도권 대학생을 대상으로 한 설문조사를 통해 실증분석을 실시하였다. Smart PLS를 이용한 구조방정식 분석 결과에 따르면 교육적 기대가치, 주관적 규범, 즐거움은 SNS 활용에 대한 학습자의 태도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났지만 매체활용 효능감과 습관은 그렇지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 학습자의 태도는 향후 지속적인 이용 의도와 학습 성과에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 대학 수업에서의 SNS의 활용은 학습자의 긍정적 태도를 야기하고 나아가 성적에도 영향을 미친다는 사실을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과를 통해 대학 교육 환경에서 SNS 활용에 대한 지침을 제공해 줄 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
