Group-based learning is known to be an effective means to improve scholastic achievement in online learning. Therefore, there are some previous researches for the group-based learning. A lot of previous researches define factors for grouping from the characteristics of classes, teacher's decision and students' preferences and then generate a group based on the defined factors. However, many algorithms proposed by previous researches depend on a specific class and is not a general approach since there exist several differences in terms of the need of courses, learners, and teachers. Moreover it is hard to find a automatic system for group generation. This paper proposes a grouping system which automatically generate a learner group according to characteristics of various classes. the proposed system automatically generates a learner group by using basic information for a class or additional factors inputted from a user. The proposed system defines a set of rules for learner grouping which enables automatic selection of a learner grouping algorithm tailored to the characteristics of a given class. This rule based approach allows the proposed system to accommodate various learner grouping algorithms for a later use. Also we show the usability of our system by serviceability evaluation.

In order to find how their learning satisfaction to impact on continuous learning, this study analyzed 206 participants who are learners under the literacy education from Ulsan city. With the first results, when looking over their learning satisfaction, we found that the level of satisfaction was the highest at the educational environment following teacher quality, learning results and contents sequentially. In general characteristics, the longer is learning attending and the satisfier is education contents and learning satisfaction. With the second results, when we look over how the general characteristics of literacy learners to impact on continuous learning, those who are over 70 years old expressed the higher rate on continuous learning. With the third results, considering the correlation between learning satisfaction and continuous learning, we concluded that the first was education contents, the second was teacher quality, the third was learning results and the last was learning environment. Consequently, we found that for literacy learners, the older and longer attending and the higher satisfaction, in addition, the continuous learning was higher according to needs of everyday life and the education contents impacted on continuous learning.

Teaching and learning is based on communication between instructors and learners. In addition to instructor's verbal communication in the classrooms, non-verbal communication plays an important role. There is growing concerned about instructor's non-verbal communication affecting the learning process and learning outcomes. Based on the literature research student's emotional presence and rapport were used variables of learning process, and learning satisfaction was used as a variable of learning outcome to see the relationship of instructor's non-verbal communication. Data was collected from 378 students at A university in Gyeonggi-do and K university in Daejeon. The data was analyzed through structural equations modeling. As a result of the study, instructor's non-verbal communication had a positive impact on emotional presence and rapport. Emotional presence had a significant influence on rapport and learning satisfaction positively, and rapport had a positive effect on learning satisfaction. Instructors should be able to recognize the role of non-verbal communication in the classes as well as be able to use it appropriately. This study could be used as basic data onto the use of non-verbal communication in university classrooms.

오늘날과 같이 과학기술과 정보통신 기술의 급속한 발달로 인터넷이 다르게 성장하였으며 이로 인하여 다양한 학습용 사이트가 운영되고 있다. 따라서 웹상의 교육정보가 기하급수적으로 증가되었고, 이러한 교육용 웹 자료를 컴퓨터 보조 학습 매체로 활용하고 있다. 또한 CAI(Computer Assisted Instruction), ICAI(Intelligent CAI) 나 ITS(Intelligent Tutoring System) 등을 통해 컴퓨터를 수업매체로 활용하는 방법도 많이 연구되고 있다. 하지만 현재까지 개발된 대부분의 ITS들은 CAl나 ICAI의 이론적 특징을 살릴 수 있을 만큼 진보되어있지 못한 실정이다. 특히 현행 교육과정이 지향하고 있는 수준별 교육과정에 적합하지 않고 학생들의 능력, 적성, 필요, 흥미에 대한 개인차를 고려하지 않으며, 학생 개개인의 성장 잠재력과 교육의 효율성을 극대화하지 못하고 있다. 그리고 학습자가 원하는 요구를 정확하게 파악하여 학습효과를 향상 시킬 수 있는 방법을 제공하고 있지 않다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 학습자들의 개인차 변인을 파악하여 학습자의 요구나 능력에 맞게 학습자의 학업성취를 평가할 수 있고, 수준별 교육과정에서 학습 능력이 떨어지는 학생의 학습 결손을 예방할 수 있도록 인터페이스 모듈, 학습자 모듈, 교수전략 모듈, 전문가 모듈을 가진 자기 주도적 학습을 위한 웹 기반의 MITS(Multimedia ITS: MITS)를 설계하였으며, MITS의 각 모듈들이 효율적으로 상호작용 할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안하였다.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between learning motivation, learning strategies and Korean proficiency. Therefore, this study conducted a learning motivation and learning strategies survey on 101 learners of Korean language from Korean and Chinese universities who obtained a middle and high-level on the Test of Proficiency in Korean. A frequency analysis and correlation analysis was conducted on these students using the SPSS 28.0 program. As a result of the study, it was found that the motivation for learning Korean in Chinese learners was high in the order of integrated motivation and instrumental motivation. The frequency of using metacognitive strategies was the highest. There was no difference in learning motivation corresponding to Korean language proficiency, but there was a correlation in the use of social strategies for learners in levels 3, 4 and 5. Based on these research results, I proposed a teaching and learning method for Chinese learners. Further research should be conducted by comparing the learning motives and learning strategies of learners in the beginner-level group and learners in the middle and high-level group.

This study analyzed the effects of augmented reality contents in the elementary school English curriculum. The study revealed the differences between study focus rate, study participation activeness, study activities consuming variables and instructional climate of a group that used augmented reality contents of the English curriculum produced by KERIS and ETRI in 2008, and a group that did not use the contents. As a result, there was no significant difference between the group that studied with augmented reality contents and the group that studied in a traditional method in terms of study focus rate. For study participation activeness, the traditional class had higher scores. On the other hand, the augmented reality contents class had an even spread of study activities consuming variables overall. In terms of instructional climate, the traditional class had higher scores in the amiable field. These results show that in English classes, the student's focusing skills and motivation for studies and stimulation of students' concentration are more related to results than the type of contents.

Rapid developments of Information and Communication Technologies(ICT) have made people learn with online contents allowing learning at onilne universities. The environments of offering educational contents at online universities differ from those at offline-based ones, so that alternative variables need to be considered in order to enhance learning effectiveness in online settings. In this study, the effects of Self-Regulated Learning(SRL) and motivation on learner-instructor interactions and academic performance in an online university were addressed. As a result, SRL and motivation not only directly affected both interactions and achievements, but also indirectly affected achievements via interactions. Also, learner-instructor interactions were directly effective on learning achievements. The implications of the research included comprehensive understandings of the structural relationships of teaching- and learning-related variables on learning. Suggestions were made based on the results.

The purpose of this study is to investigate factors influencing educational performance and mediating effects of learning presence in the university flipped learning classroom. For achieving this purpose, self-regulation, learning presence, and collaborative preference were selected as learner variables, and perceived academic achievement and learning engagement were selected as variables for educational performance. To investigate causal relationships among the variables, 39 university students who took 16 week course flipped-learning class participated self-reported survey. Collected data were analyzed by multiple regression and mediation analyses. The results were as follows: first, learning presence and self-regulation affected learning engagement, and moreover, the learning presence mediated between self-regulation and learning engagement. Second, only learning presence affected perceived academic achievement. Therefore, various strategies for effective flipped learning should be considered, and well-designed classroom activities that can promote learners self-regulation, learning presence, and learning engagement are needed to successful flipped learning.
