Abstract

This study investigates the interactivity of smart LMS. To this end, smart LMS was used for one semester in the English course for economics majors and the surveys about its interactivity were conducted. The findings show that smart LMS enhanced the interaction between instructors and students, between students and students, and between students and learning contents. Especially in the classroom, the activity bulletin made possible the instructor's immediate feedback about team-based activity outcomes. Also, outside the classroom, Wiki made it convenient for students to collaborate with each other. In addition, activity outcomes in the activity bulletin and course materials uploaded on smart LMS contributed to the interactivity. However, what is recommended to do to increase the interactivity are to prepare instructional strategies for students to get used to using smart LMS and smartphones as their learning tool, to test the target systems of smart LMS in advance, and to take proper actions to solve the problems of smartphone's data and battery.

본 연구는 스마트 LMS의 상호작용 효과를 밝히는 것을 목적으로 하고 있다. 이를 위하여 전공영어 과목에서 한 학기 동안 강의실 안과 밖에서 스마트 LMS를 활용한 후 이 과목을 수강하는 35명의 학생을 대상으로 사전 설문과 사후 설문을 실시하였다. 연구결과 스마트 LMS는 교수 학생 간, 학생과 학생 간, 학생과 학습내용 간 모두에서 상호작용 효과가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 특히 수업 중에 활용한 수업활동게시판은 교수자의 즉각적인 피드백을 가능하게 하였고 위키는 강의실 밖에 조별 발표를 위해 학생들이 협업하는 것을 편리하게 하였다. 또한 수업활동 게시판에 정리된 조별활동 산출물과 스마트 LMS에 탑재된 강의자료들 역시 상호작용 효과를 높이는 역할을 하였다. 그러나 향후 상호작용성을 더 높이기 위하여 고려할 점은 학생들에게 스마트 LMS를 활용하는 수업방식에 잘 적응할 수 있게 하는 방안 마련과, 스마트 LMS 기능에 대한 사전 실험, 스마트폰의 데이터와 배터리 문제를 해결하기 위한 적절한 대응을 꼽을 수 있다.
