Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of participation in the learning community program on the communication skills and cooperative learning capabilities of college students. To this end, in the second semester of 2018, pre and post surveys were conducted on 296 students at A University and analyzed using SPSS. The main research results are as follows. First, there was a significant difference in the participation of the learning community program in the cooperative learning capacity of college students. Second, in the analysis by sub-factors, there were significant differences before and after the program in the factors of cooperative learning competency learning participation and learning satisfaction. Third, the differences between grades showed significant differences between the 2nd and 3rd grades before and after the program. Fourth, based on the results of this study, suggestions were made for learning community program activities and follow-up studies. The results of this study analyzed the effects of learning community activities conducted at universities on the communication skills and cooperative learning capabilities of college students, and presented practical measures for the systematic operation and support of learning community activities.

본 연구는 학습공동체 프로그램 참여가 대학생의 의사소통능력 및 협동학습역량에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 2018년 2학기에 A대학교 재학생 296명을 대상으로 사전·사후 설문조사를 실시하였고 SPSS를 사용하여 분석하였다. 주요 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 학습공동체 프로그램 참여가 대학생의 협동학습역량에 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 둘째, 하위요인별 분석에서는 협동학습역량의 학습참여, 학습만족도 요인에서 프로그램 전후 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 셋째, 학년별 차이를 살펴본 바, 2학년과 3학년에서 프로그램 전후 협동학습역량이 유의한 차이를 나타냈다. 넷째, 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 학습공동체 프로그램 활동 및 후속 연구에 대한 시사점을 제안하였다. 본 연구는 대학에서 진행되는 학습공동체 활동이 대학생의 의사소통능력 및 협동학습역량에 미치는 영향을 분석하였고 학습공동체 활동의 체계적인 운영과 지원을 위한 실천적인 방안을 제시하였다.
