Cyber lectures were expected to replace the traditional classroom lecture, yet they were criticized due to the inefficiency. With educational technology supplemented, cyber lectures have improved their efficiency through the coherence of superior planning ability and improvement in computer and network technology. This paper's purpose is to understand the factors that improve educational efficiency of cyber lectures. Cyber lecture for IT subject for software practice is created to test the educational efficiency as lecture on theories will not distinctively show the lecture efficiency. The survey was conducted to students and statistical analysis was done on collected data to analyze the factors that influence educational efficiency of created lecture.

The purpose of this study is to verify the effects of partial-cyber and full-cyber lectures and explore directions for improvement. This study compared the mean scores of course evaluation for traditional face-to-face lectures, partial-cyber lectures of blended instruction, and full-cyber lectures. Also, this study interviewed instructors of full-cyber lectures to investigate the ways to enhance the lecture quality. The findings suggest that the course evaluation scores for full-cyber university were consistently lower than those for other types of lectures for four semesters between the years of 2011 and 2012. Results also showed that mean scores of partial-cyber lectures were the same as those of face-to-face lectures. After all, class satisfaction in full-cyber courses that learning occurs in cyber space was the lowest. Instructors who taught full-cyber lectures proposed that enrollment should not be within 60 students and professional assistance should be provided for lectures exceeding 60 students. Finally, they suggested content updates through a collaborative system with professionals, instructors' efforts to enhance interaction in both online and offline contexts, and learning quantity rationalization.

The World-Wide Web provides new opportunities for cyber education over the internet. The web, when combined with other network tools, can be used to provide useful educational information to learners. Thus, the objective of this paper is to develop Java applets for understanding the principles of electronic circuits on the internet. Some sample Java applets are illustrated as an example. The results of this paper can be widely used to improve the efficiency of cyberlectures in the cyber university.

Recently, according to the appearance of various virtual websites using multimedia technologies for engineering education, the internet applications in engineering education have drawn much interests. But unidirectional communication, simple text/image-based webpages and tedious learning process without motivation etc. have made the lowering of educational efficiency in cyberspace. Thus, to cope with these difficulties this paper presents a web-based educational Java applets for understanding the principles or conceptions of digital logic systems. The proposed Java applets provides the improved learning methods which can enhance the interests of learners. The results of this paper can be widely used to improve the efficiency of cyberlectures in the cyber university. Several sample Java applets are illustrated to show the validity of the proposed learning method.

In this paper, we propose a novel model and authoring method of digital contents which improves the educational effects in the area of cyber educations through Web. Especially we offer a new model of contents authoring for engineering departs using JAVA technology and concept-based branch strategy, making unit-contents separated in accordance with their characteristics and then accessing them at arbitrary instant in the replaying time. In proportion to the proposed model and strategy, the resultant contents might show advanced adaptabilities and interactions for users and the educational effects are really improved. Combining and realizing the proposed conceptual branch method and JAVA applet library with the conventional page-branch or subject-blanch we expect to get a novel basic scenario of engineering cyber contents and the scenario might improve the authoring and educational effects of the contents by applying its good interactive properties and realistic operations.
