The purpose of this study is to investigate the interaction factors(learning motivation, concrete feedback, learner's control) and affordance factors (aesthetics, playfulness, stability) that influence flow in e - learning. This study collected 236 survey data from e-learning users. The data was analyzed the statistical relationships among the variables using the SPSS21 and AMOS21. The measurement model was reliable and valid, and the structual model was good. The result shows that interaction factors (concrete feedback, learner's control) and affordance factor (playfulness) influence on flow. Flow has a significant effect on satisfaction. Especially the effect of playfulness on flow is meaningful. Playfulness is one of the most important factors leading to the flow state of humans. The contribution of this study is to find the factors influencing flow in the interaction between learners and computer in e-learning. It can be used to provide an entertainment experience that can enhance the satisfaction of consumers in the Internet environment by finding the antecedents that affect the flow in computer - human interaction.

The purpose of this study is to analyze relationship between general characteristics of learners and learner-related variables such as learning flow, self-directedness and learner satisfaction, thereby find out effective online teaching methods and provide the necessary basic data for improving learning satisfaction. A total of 473 students of medical school in C region were the subjects of this study and surveyed for research in a self-reporting form. According to the study, proportion of 31 to 40 minutes (38.9%) of learning engaged time was the highest, 65.5% of the learners studied regularly, more than those who studied irregularly(34.5%), and the higher the grade, the higher the percentage of learners who studied regularly. Learning flow averaged 4.03 (±0.86), self-directedness averaged 4.49 (±0.97), and learner satisfaction averaged 4.38 (±1.01). There were significant differences in learning flow, self-directedness and learner satisfaction according to grade, learning engaged time, and learning regularity. the factors affecting learner satisfaction were grade, learning flow, and self-directedness, with 72.5% adjusted R-squared. This study is expected to be used to establish an online learning management system to improve learning satisfaction by identifying variables related to learning satisfaction in the online learning environment of medical students.

This study developed an English conversation learning program using virtual reality(VR) and mobile devices. Participants learned and practiced English conversational patterns in immersive virtual reality and mobile conditions. In the program, participants learned and practiced nine conversational patterns with virtual characters in four steps. Language anxiety and conversational fluency were measured to examine the effects of this program. Language anxiety questionnaire was administered before and after the experiment. The results showed that language anxiety was significantly reduced after learning in both conditions, and the reduction waa significantly greater in the immersive condition. Conversational fluency was assessed based on the changes in the length, appropriateness, and accuracy of the responses before and after participants learned and practiced conversational episodes. The results showed that the length, appropriateness, and accuracy of the responses were improved in both conditions after learning. The response length was significantly longer in the immersive VR conditions. These results suggest that immersive VR can be an effective tool to enhance English conversational abilities.

Zoom has been most popularly used as a non-face-to-face online class tool since COVID19, but due to the recent spread of the metaverse, the use of the metaverse platform is increasing. In particular, since a metaverse platform 'Spatial' provides online classroom creation and various learning functions, and various interactions between instructors and learners or learners and learners are possible, it is highly likely to be used in university classes. Since Zoom and Spatial each have their own strengths and weaknesses for the purpose of class use, it is necessary to find out the strengths and weaknesses of each by comparing and analyzing the learner's experience in class use. In this study, a quantitative analysis of usability, immersion, and satisfaction and a qualitative analysis of individual opinions were performed in order to compare and analyze the learner's experience. SUS (System Usability Scale) was used for usability evaluation, and Magnitude Estimation method was used for immersion and satisfaction evaluation. Thirty-five people who had participated in classes using Zoom and Spatial participated as subjects in this study. Zoom was higher than Spatial at the significance level of 0.05 in usability and satisfaction. On the other hand, the immersion in class was higher in Spatial than in Zoom. Since Spatial provides online classroom creation and various learning functions, and provides various interactions and fun elements between instructors and learners or learners and learners, the immersion in classes was high. If the user interface and interaction of Spatial are improved in the future, it is judged that it can be used as an effective online teaching tool that can replace zoom in university classes.
