우리나라 교육통계에 따르면 외국인 가정 및 국제결혼 가정의 자녀 수는 138,227명에 달하며(교육부, 2020), 결혼이민자는 169,005명에 이른다(법무부, 2022). 이들 중 대다수는 의사소통의 어려움을 호소하며, 의사소통 문제는 학교 및 사회생활 부적응으로 이어진다. 이에 대하여, 지방자치단체와 다문화 유관기관 등에서 다양한 한국어교육 프로그램을 진행하고 있지만, 대부분이 단편적인 학습지 교육이나 문화 체험 수업에 그치거나 코로나19 등으로 인하여 수업이 중단되는 등 효과적이고 체계적인 교육이 제공되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 한국에서 적응하고 생활해야 하는 다문화 가정 구성원들을 대상으로 한국어교육을 체계적으로 실시하기 위해 가상현실(VR)을 활용한 교육 프로그램을 제안한다. 이는 시공간의 제약을 받지 않아 일반 교재나 PC 활용 수업에 비해 접근성이 좋고 실재감과 몰입감을 높여 학습자의 흥미와 참여도를 향상시킬 수 있다. 특히 다자간 동시 참여가 가능한 메타버스 공간에서는 학습자 간 활발한 상호작용 및 소통이 가능하여 언어 능력과 더불어 사회 적응력을 기르는 데에 기여할 수 있다.

COVID-19 provided visitors with new online concerts that gradually increased in many ways. The disadvantage of current online concerts is that cannot make full use of the interaction with others. We hope to provide online concert audiences with the same experience as offline. This study was conducted under the condition that the audience watched online concerts and movies individually or group. Experimental results confirm that watching online concerts collectively will increase the sense of immersion. It can be used as a design guide for the virtual public viewing environment in the future.

The purpose of the study was to provide an educational environment for designing and producing virtual reality practice contents that can be used in semiconductor production lines and clean rooms. Through this process, the user can acquire practical knowledge through experiences close to reality, such as experiencing the main semiconductor solar cell manufacturing facilities as well as procedural knowledge before and after entering the clean room.. In particular, it provides users with an immersion experience close to reality by creating an environment for experiential content necessary for semiconductor and solar cell manufacturing processes and clean room entrance procedure experiential content, which is expected to improve education immersion, realism, cost, efficiency, and education satisfaction. Depending on the characteristics of Dangerous, Impossible, Counter-productive etc, immersive content makes learners immersed in the learning content, induces proactive/active learning, and embodies the learning content, resulting in positive results in the field of improving educational effectiveness.

In this study, based on the general reasoning that the higher the resolution of the HMD, the greater the presence and immersion of the audience and the greater the presence experience, the difference in the presence experience according to the resolution of the virtual reality device is verified empirically Presence effect. To do this, 300 college students were included in the population, and VR simulations of the Oculus store were conducted using HMD and mobile devices with different resolutions (HD, FHD, WQHD) as stimuli. As a result, there was a significant difference in the presence experience of the audience according to the resolution of the mobile device attached to the virtual reality HMD, and the presence effect had a significant influence on the awakening. On the other hand, no significant influence was found in the effect of emotion. Therefore, we can prove a general reasoning hypothesis that the higher the resolution of the virtual reality device, the greater the presence experience of the audience. However, since the confounding effect and the impression are contradictory in the presence effect side, additional experiments research is required.

The inconsistency in different sensory information causes virtual reality (VR) sickness. This research verifies whether the consistent sensory information reduces VR sickness within treadmill-based virtual reality. Furthermore, we examined the inconsistency between the visually perceived walking speed by optical flow in VR and the physically perceived walking speed in treadmill walking on VR sickness. In Experiment 1, participants reported VR sickness levels while experiencing an increase in the virtual reality. We compared the VR sickness level reported on the standing still condition with that on the treadmill-walking condition. Based on our results, less VR sickness and more sense of presence and immersion were reported on the treadmill-walking condition than on the standing still condition. In Experiment 2 and Experiment 3, the effect of inconsistency between perceived visual speed and perceived walking speed on VR sickness was examined. Interestingly, participants reported less sickness when the perceived visual speed was faster than the perceived walking speed, compared to when the sense of speed was consistent. These results imply that allowing participants to walk on a treadmill while experiencing virtual reality reduces VR sickness. Hence, the perceived visual-walking speed consistency is not necessarily required to reduce VR sickness.

The 2D based-web contents are limited to implement interactive elements for the users even though the contents are offered in various styles. Using the mouse and keyboards users chose any web contents for themselves beyond the limitation of time and space. They want more interactive style as they become familiar with convenience of web contents. The 3 dimensional web contents integrated with interactive technologies are one of the ways for them There are many researches and commercialization of the interactive web 30 for the past years because it has a lot of user benefits in terms of immersion, realistic expression, and interactivity. It has two types of implementation; one is for 3D polygon based objects, the other is for virtual worlds. This research is focus of on the concept of web interactive 3D, the technical aspects, design elements, and the proposal of navigation methods for the purpose of creating new type of web interactive contents.

This study classified sensory affordances, functional affordances, and perceptual affordances, and verified their effects on consumers' participation and intention to stay in the metaverse. As a result of the study, sensory affordance, functional affordance, and perceptual affordance all had a positive effect on consumer participation, and sensory affordance had the greatest effect. In addition, consumer participation was found to increase the intention to stay. Service companies that provide metaverse platforms will have to pay more attention to realizing virtual space through various senses and physical elements when building a metaverse in order to encourage customers to actively participate in the service process. Since services based on the 4th industry, the participation of consumers needs to be more actively reviewed. From the perspective of affordance, it is expected that the realistic implementation of the metaverse environment and the interaction with various contents or avatars in the space will increase consumer participation.

As virtual assistants rapidly diffused into the market, the voice shopping market is expected to expand. The purpose of this study is to identify the factors that determine the consumers' intention to adopt voice shopping by using the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology(UTAUT). In this study, we set variables that influence the intention to adoption of voice shopping with performance expectation and effort expectations as the variables of UTAUT and playfulness expectations as an extended variable. In addition, we also include four voice secretary attributes such as response accuracy, compatibility, social presence, and safety in our research model to investigate the source of motivation of voice shopping adoption. The result of this analysis shows that variables such as performance expectation, effort expectation, and amusement expectation have a positive effect on the intention to adoption of voice shopping. With respect to the four voice shopping attributes, compatibility had a positive effect on performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and playfulness expectancy. Social presence has a positive effect on playfulness expectancy. Safety has a positive effect on effort expectancy and playfulness expectancy. On the other hand, response accuracy is not significant for performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and playfulness expectancy. This study reveals the determinants of intention to adopt the new purchasing method called voice shopping, and suggests the important factors for the innovation of commerce business.

Animation is showing the highest record in entertainment around the world and writing the history of 3D animation again. The image contents effect thanks to the proper introduction of the state-of-art digital technology, which is one of the causes of the outstanding entertainment and the factual reproduction of the images, provided an opportunity to transmit the meaning of image aesthetics, which is a virtual reality and image reproduction through the reality realization of photo medium, and to reinterpret the boundary of virtual reality. Especially, the development of digital contents technology due to scientific technologies demolishes the boundary of virtual reality and reality and creates the effect of making viewers be absorbed by realizing the virtual reality by means of 3D reality images which highlight the special characteristic of photos. The aspect of the contents technology and image aesthetics which can be interpreted in a view point beyond the existing concept of reality is found in the aura theory of Benjamin and in the Simulacres of Baudrillard. The 3D image by photo-reality herein presents various suggestions in the aspect of real existence of spatial expression, the meaning creation process of reality, the existence value of virtual images.
