This study investigated relationships between academic stress and mathematics learning motivation focusing on the mediating effect of academic motivation types. It also tested differential structural relationship among the variables in the high vs. low academic achievement level groups and the boys vs. girls of middle schools. The participants were 952 second graders from five middle schools. Student scores from the standardized tests that were developed to assess the students' academic stress, mathematics learning motivation, and three types of motivation (amotivation, controlled motivation, and autonomous motivation) were used in this study. The results demonstrate that there were significant differences in the relationship patterns of the research variables. Correlation analysis provided evidences that academic stress was negatively related with mathematics learning motivation and autonomous motivation but positively related with amotivation and controlled motivation. Also, mathematics learning motivation was negatively related with amotivation and controlled motivation but positively related with autonomous motivation. Structural equation modelling analysis provided the evidence that the full mediation model was a significant, in that the students' types of academic motivation mediated the effect of academic stress on mathematics learning motivation. Multiple group analysis revealed that there were group differences in the path coefficients of the structural model. But the academic stress showed negative influence on the mathematics learning motivation via amotivation and autonomous motivation in all groups.

Recently, in each university, the fourth industry era has begun, and a lot of programming lectures have been added to liberal arts classes in order to nurture the convergence talents needed in society. However, learners often encounter difficulties or negative responses to programming. In this study, we analyzed the personality type of learners in order to analyze the motivation of learning disengagement in programming learning. Through the pre - test, learners with emotional and thought personality types were identified and analyzed. As a result of this study, it was confirmed that learners with a solid personality type of BS can have a negative gaze in programming learning. Future research is expected to contribute to learning motivation through lecture learning in post test.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of EngageGram which is a motivator of e-learning participation on learners' online participation according to the types of social comparison motive. Research participation was 144 undergraduate students (male: 106, female: 38) who took the course entitled "Creative Thinking." Social comparison motive of learners were investigated by two methods: social comparison motive scales and learners' opinions on EngageGram. As results, there was no statically corelation between the types of social comparison motive by using scales and online participation, however, there was statically differences on e-learning participation according to the types of social comparison motives by analyzing learners' opinions. Learners mostly have self-enhancement motive in a learning context so they are motivated to participate actively by EngageGram. This study provide useful implication in the research area of learning analytics.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of simulation integrated with problem based learning in terms of critical thinking, problem solving, learning motivation according to Myers-Briggs type indicator(MBTI) personality type in advanced nursing course students. This study was a non-equivalent control posttest only design. Students were all enrolled in advanced nursing course which included 1) 6 weeks problem based learning 2) 5 weeks simulation integrated with PBL and debriefing. Total 19 students' data were collected and analyzed on SPSS win 21.0. The results showed students who have out patients working experience were significantly higher learning motivation(${\chi}^2=9.85$, p=.044), no experienced simulation were significantly higher critical thinking(${\chi}^2=4.44$, p=.035) and as temperament of MBTI, NT types were significantly higher on critical thinking(${\chi}^2=8.53$, p=.036). Students show various personality types and it might be impact on attitudes of learning and the results. Thus we need to understand their diversity and consider it to apply teaching methods on nursing education.

This study examined the effects of Cyber University students' educational participatory motivation and life satisfaction on their satisfaction with their major. The subjects were 937 adult learners at one of the Cyber Universities in Seoul, Korea, who were over 20 years of age. The results were as follows. First, the main motivation of the Cyber University students was goal-oriented, followed by learning-oriented motivation and activity-oriented motivation. Second, there were significant differences in their educational participatory motivation, life satisfaction and major satisfaction according to their sex, age, occupation, marriage and major. Third, their life satisfaction and three types of educational participatory motivation had positive effects on the satisfaction with their major in the order of life satisfaction, goal-oriented motivation, learning-oriented motivation and activity-oriented motivation. These findings suggest that adult learners' quality of life and motivation to learn are very important for increasing the degree of satisfaction with their major.

This study investigates the effect of E-learning service quality toward users' learning satisfactions when moderating by users' study motivations at cyber universities. For this end, the E-learning service quality was measured with SERVQUAL which was widely employed in academic research area. From rich survey analysis, this study finds that the three factors of E-learning service quality such as concreteness, certainty, credibility and sympathy are statistically correlated with users' learning satisfactions, but the responsiveness is not. Also in order to test the hypothesis that the study motivation is a moderate variable, the three step regression analysis was applied. Finally, this research finds that the study motivation has the role of moderate variable to affect the users' learning satisfactions.
