In this paper we propose ubiquitous virtual reality framework and its application for fostering a sustainable content ecosystem in the convergence space of virtual reality and real space. The ubiquitous virtual reality framework supports fundamental infrastructure which consists of platforms for end-users and service providers and dual space management. The platform for the service provider allows experts to generate contents related to real objects while the platform for the end-users allows to consume, share and regenerate the contents contextually augmented over real objects. The dual space management stores, visualizes and provides the contents generated and extended by them for connecting different users and service providers. The proposed framework allows users to continuously generate, share and extend the contents and thus contribute to making multimedia service environment. We also implemented and evaluated the framework consisting of a desktop authoring platform, mobile authoring platform and a dual space management server. We then introduced a promising application scenario to show how the content ecosystem is empowered by ubiquitous virtual reality framework and is realized in our life. Consequently, we are expecting that the ubiquitous virtual reality technology will play a vital role in building continuously evolving multimedia service environment for the future computing environment.

This study organizes an immersive content production pipeline using Meta Quest Pro as an asymmetric virtual environment where mixed reality(MR) and virtual reality(VR) users participate and interact together. Based on this, we compare and analyze the differences in presence and experience provided by the user's experience environment. The proposed production process is to build an integrated development environment using Meta XR All-in-One SDK based on the Unity 3D engine. This includes a real space analysis method using the Room Model function for organic and accurate interaction between MR users in the real world and VR users based on virtual scenes at fixed coordinates. Based on this, this study produces immersive table tennis content where MR and VR users participate together. Finally, we conduct survey experiments to compare and analyze the effects of differences in platform and participation methods on presence and experience using the produced content. As a result, this study confirmed that all users can feel a satisfactory presence and experience within an experience environment where real and virtual correspond.

This study analyzed the types of knowledge building discourse and knowledge building processes in small group learning using augmented reality. Eight 8th grade students took classes using augmented reality in solubility, boiling and melting points. These classes were carried out twice and all the classes were videotaped and recorded. Every student participated in a semi-structured interview. In the types of knowledge building discourse, the proportion of knowledge sharing and knowledge construction was similar. Beneath the knowledge sharing, the proportion of introductory level discussion was higher than identifying key elements of augmented reality. Recalling existing knowledge rarely appeared. Under the knowledge construction, the proportion of advanced level discussion was the highest and the proportion of sharing and critiquing ideas at a different level and efforts to rise above current levels of explanation was similar. The introductory level discussion and identifying key elements of augmented reality were developed into efforts to rise above current levels of explanation and sharing and critiquing ideas at a different level. Visualized results of knowledge building processes showed all the students' graph drew an upward curve, though cumulative number of impact value was different by each student. As a result of the study, effective ways of improving small group learning using augmented reality are discussed.

In the era of digital media era, the importance of media education has been emphasized by both scholars and audience right related organizations. However, little research has been conducted about the factors may have influence on the intention to participate media education program. Therefore, this study attempted to examine the effect of motivation on both satisfaction and intention of it. For this purpose, this study surveyed the participants from education program offered by two local media center. The results showed that the activity-oriented motivation had effect on both the satisfaction and intention to continuous participation. The results of the current study can be applied to development of the plan for encouraging the continuous learning of media.

인터넷상에서 3차원 가상공간을 구현할 때는 VRML(Vitual Reality Modeling Language)을 이용하여 표현할 수 있다. 그러나 VRML 만을 이용하면 단일 사용자에 한하여 사용되고,간단한 채팅이나 다른 사용자의 움직임을 처리할 수 가 없다. 그러므로 자바 애플릿을 사용하여 다중 참여가 가능한 웹 페이지를 작성하여 보다 현실적인 가상공간을 만들 수 있게 된다. 본 논문은 VRML로 가상공간 저작시 자바 애플릿을 이용하여 다중참여가 가능한 웹 페이지를 설계하고 구현하는 방법으로, EAI(External Authoring Interface)를 이용하여 외부의 자바 애플릿으로 VRML세계를 제어함으로써 사용자의 움직임과 입력에 따른 처리와 다른 참여자들의 행위까지 나타낼수 있도록 저작하여 다중 참여를 구현한다. 다중 참여를 지원하는 가상공간을 구축함과 동시에 기존의 VRML 브라우저를 이용하기 때문에 응용이 용이하게 되며 3차원 채팅과 가상교육 각종 게임 등의 분야에 활용할 수 있다.

본 논문에서는 최근 오프라인에서 인기를 끌고 있는 방 탈출 게임을 가상현실로 구현하였다. 가상현실(Virtual Reality, VR)은 컴퓨터 등을 사용한 인공적인 기술로 만들어낸 실제와 유사하지만 실제가 아닌 어떤 특정한 환경이나 상황을 의미하며 만들어진 가상의(상상의) 환경이나 상황 등은 사용자의 오감을 자극하며 실제와 유사한 공간적, 시간적 체험을 하게 함으로써 현실과 상상의 경계를 자유롭게 드나들게 한다. 개발한 콘텐츠는 가상현실 이라는 공간을 초월한 개념을 통해 오프라인에서의 공간 확보 및 유지보수 비용을 절약할 수 있고 다양한 공간구현이 가능하다는 장점이 있다. 또한 네트워크 시스템적 부분인 서버를 통한 동시참여로 보다 다양하게 즐길 수 있다.

The multi-user VR system can more enhance the sense of reality than existing single user VR system, but it also cause a significant problem about network structure and protocol, since the current Internet using TCP/IP can not afford to deliver such a massive information required to the real-time constraint of multi-user VR system. In this paper, we introduce new network structure and protocol for multiple user's virtual world navigation and interaction through their avatars. The virtual worlds are based on virtual building and managed by distributed servers. The avatars have 9 behaviors and recognize the state of each other by pre-defined network protocol.

The purpose of this study was to analyze effects of VR-based intervention on the barista competence of students with mild intellectual disabilities. To do this, 30 students mild intellectual disabilities were participated and placed experimental and control groups of 15 students. Control group participated in the traditional intervention, but experimental group took part in the VR-based intervention. Evaluation was consisted of the basic concept evaluation and the functional evaluation on the work of barista. Evaluations were conducted three times and the collected data was analyzed the repeated two-way ANOVA. In the result of study, experimental group have significantly improved both in basic conceptual learning of coffee and in skills making coffee than control group.

가상세계는 현실세계를 반영하여 만든 가상의 공간이다. 이러한 공간간에서 여러 사용자들은 서로의 의견을 교환하며 여러 가지 작업을 한다. 이러한 작업들을 이벤트라고 부르며 기존의 다중 참여자를 지원하는 브라우저들은 객체에 대한 이벤트가 발생했을 대 모든 사용자에게 똑같은 화면을 보여줌으로써 사용자의 소극적인 의사표현만을 제공하였다. 그러나 사용자에 따라 이벤트가 발생했을 때 보고싶은 객체의 위치나 크기 등이 다를 수 있고 때로는 자신의 작업 중에는 이벤트의 발생을 알고 싶지 않은 경우도 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 사용자들의 욕구를 만족시키도록 객체의 이벤트가 발생하였을 때 화면을 표현하는 여러 가지 방법(Presentation Level Sharing, View Level Sharing, Object Level Sharing)을 제시하고 사용자로 하여금 선택하여 볼 수 있도록 제안한다. 또한 이벤트 발생시 표현 방법에 따라 객체를 포함한 영역의 크기도 함께 결정 할 수 있도록 한다.

통계학의 여러 개념들을 효과적으로 가르치기 위한 다양한 연구들이 진행되고 적용되고 있다. 그러나 기초통계학 교육에서 교수자와 학습자 모두 교수와 학습의 어려움을 끊임없이 제기하고 있다. 또한 기존의 교수학습 방법들을 현실에 적용하기에는 시간과 교구재 등 여러 가지 어려움이 있어서 실제 적용되지 못하고 있는 것이 현실이다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 연구들에서 주장하고 입증된 교수학습 방법들을 교실 현장에서 쉽게 적용할 수 있도록 하는 통계 교수학습 모형을 제시하고자 한다. 이를 위해 문제위주 학습과 협동학습 등을 통해 학습자의 참여를 높여 학습효과를 증대할 수 있는 구성 주의적 학습활동을 네트워크와 웹을 기반으로 수행하는 교수학습 모형을 제안한다
