Abstract
This study aimed to verify the learning effectiveness of students who took courses in the field of new and renewable energy, which have been operated within a convergence university system. To achieve this, data were collected from 1,228 students who participated in 34 courses jointly developed and conducted by seven universities as part of standard curriculum offerings. The study analyzed learning effectiveness (course satisfaction, transfer motivation, learning transfer, creativity-convergence competency) using Excel 2018 and SPSS 25.0. It also examined inter-university differences in learning effectiveness and identified factors influencing creativity-convergence competency. The main findings are as follows: (a) Course satisfaction (M= 4.20), transfer motivation (M=3.62), learning transfer (M= 4.06), and creativity-convergence competency (M=3.92) were generally high. (b) Analysis of learning effectiveness differences between universities showed no significant differences among universities A, B, C, D, and E. University F was lower compared to other universities, while University G was significantly higher than others. (c) Sex, grade, number of courses taken, course satisfaction, transfer motivation, and learning transfer had effect on creativity-convergence competency. The results of this study provided implications for promoting activities to attract students, expanding transfer opportunities, and ensuring student agency.
