최근 4차 산업혁명의 핵심 분야 중 하나인 인공지능에 대한 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 많은 기업들이 인공지능 스피커와 같은 제품을 출시하고 있으나 대부분 비서 역할만을 할 수 있도록 구성된 제품이 대부분이다. 그러나 학교와 같이 많은 사람이 존재하는 경우 시끄러운 환경에서 사용되고 있는 인공지능 스피커는 명령 인식이 제대로 되지 않아 실용도가 저하되는 단점을 가지고 있으며, 현재 인공지능 스피커는 단순한 질의응답 수준의 응대만 가능하여 다소 부족한 부분이 있다. 또한 인공지능의 급속한 발전으로 인공지능 스피커가 아닌 전자제품에 인공지능 비서 기능이 탑재된 제품도 새롭게 출시되어 인공지능 스피커가 필요 없을 수도 있기에, 본 논문에서는 학교와 같은 주변의 소음이 많이 발생하는 교육 환경에서도 소통이 가능한 인공지능 마이크를 활용할 수 있는 모델을 제안한다.

As software and artificial intelligence education became more and more important, in December 2019, the Ministry of Science and ICT announced plans to expand software and AI education to mandatory education in elementary and secondary schools by 2022. In addition to elementary and secondary schools, most universities are actively engaged in software education for computer non-majors, but research on coding education for computer non-majors is insufficient. The purpose of this paper is to find an efficient teaching and learning method for coding education for computer non-majors. Nowadays, college students, called Millennial and Generation Z, prefer visual information and are familiar with computers as digital natives. Based on these characteristics, this study examined the visual literacy and thinking styles of college students and then examined whether the students' visual literacy and thinking styles influenced coding-based problem solving in coding subjects. Based on this, this paper proposes an alternative to do programming education more efficiently for students who are new to coding.

This study aimed to investigate the current utilization and implications of digital learning support media in the field of French studies, and to explore future research directions. To achieve this, we conducted a comprehensive review of the use of digital media in various learning processes within French studies. Additionally, we examined the direct application of ChatGPT, an emerging technology, to learning by extending its use to foreign language and education fields. Our findings indicate that the application of digital learning support media in French studies is somewhat limited, with selective use in processes such as online class support media, pre-class learning, efficient learning and interaction, and self-directed learning. In the case of ChatGPT, our research found that no studies have been conducted within French studies, and very few studies have been conducted on its practical application in other educational fields. While ChatGPT has a wide range of applications and has shown positive effects on learners, ethical concerns have been raised regarding the quality, source, and reliability of information. Therefore, future research in French studies should focus on educational application and effectiveness verification in university teaching and learning situations, as well as interdisciplinary convergence with digital learning support media.

With the development of online education due to COVID-19, the EduTech market, which combines new technologies such as AI and AR/VR in education is rapidly growing. In addition, the children's industry is steadily growing despite the decreasing birth rate every year as more and more families with one child per household are investing in their children. However, supply of contents to EduTech market is slow compared to demands that are increasing. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to help solve these problems by developing and supporting AR kids contents with convenience, practicality, and efficiency using AR technology. AR content for supporting vocabulary learning for infants is not just an end to watching and listening, but an observation-driven model that can manipulate content directly, which attracts children's interest and helps children learn words. This paper is intended for infants from 15 months to 36 months old when full-fledged language development occurs.

With the introduction of AI digital textbooks, interest in the use of technology tools in mathematics education is increasing. Technology tools have the advantage of visualizing mathematical concepts and discovering mathematical principles through experimentation and inquiry. The 2015 revised mathematics curriculum in Korea already mentions the use of technology tools, and accordingly, various teaching and learning activities using technology tools are presented in mathematics textbooks. However, there is still a lack of systematic analysis on the types and utilization methods of technology tools presented in textbooks. Therefore, this study analyzed the current status of the use of technology tools presented in high school mathematics textbooks based on the 2015 revised curriculum. To this end, the types of technology tools presented in mathematics textbooks were categorized, and the utilization ratio of each category was investigated. In addition, the utilization patterns of technology tools were analyzed by subject and content area, and the utilization ratio of technology tools according to the type of teaching and learning activities was examined. The results showed that technology tools were used in various types and ratios according to the subject and content area. In particular, technology tools in the symbol-manipulation graphing software category accounted for 58% of the total usage cases, showing the highest proportion. By subject, the use of symbol-manipulation graphing software was prominent in subjects dealing with the analysis area, while the use of dynamic geometry software was relatively high in the geometry area. In terms of teaching and learning activity types, the utilization ratio of auxiliary tool type (49%) and intended inquiry induction type (37%) was high. The results of this study show that technology tools play various roles in mathematics textbooks and provide useful implications for improving mathematics teaching and learning methods using technology tools in the future. Furthermore, it can contribute to the establishment of educational policies related to AI digital textbooks and the development of teacher training programs.

Facial expression recognition plays a significant role in understanding human emotional states. With the advancement of AI and computer vision technologies, extensive research has been conducted in various fields, including improving customer service, medical diagnosis, and assessing learners' understanding in education. In this study, we develop a model that can infer emotions in real-time from a webcam using transfer learning with TensorFlow.js and MobileNet. While existing studies focus on achieving high accuracy using deep learning models, these models often require substantial resources due to their complex structure and computational demands. Consequently, there is a growing interest in developing lightweight deep learning models and transfer learning methods for restricted environments such as web browsers and edge devices. By employing MobileNet as the base model and performing transfer learning, our study develops a deep learning transfer model utilizing JavaScript-based TensorFlow.js, which can predict emotions in real-time using facial input from a webcam. This transfer model provides a foundation for implementing facial expression recognition in resource-constrained environments such as web and mobile applications, enabling its application in various industries.

The appearance of education is also rapidly changing in social changes represented by social networks. And the development of information and communication technology is also having a widespread effect on the education field. In the era of untact caused by Covid-19, education through smart learning is having a greater effect on students as well as adult learners more quickly and broadly. In addition, smart learning is not just limited to learning content, but is developing into personalized, convergence, and intelligent. The purpose of this study is to identify the factors of ARCS motivation theory that can determine the learning motivation of smart learning users, and to empirically study the casual relationship between these factors on education achievement through practical value and hedonic value. Specifically, I would like to examine how the independent variables ARCS motivation factors (attention, relevance, confidence, and satisfaction) affect learners' education achievement through the parameters of practical value and hedonic value. To this end, a research model was presented that applied the main variables of attention, relevance, confidence, and satisfaction, which are four elements of ARCS motivation theory, a specific and systematic motivational strategy to induce and maintain learners' motivation. In order to empirically verify the research model of this study, a survey was carried out on learners with experience using smart learning. As a result of the study, first attention was found to have a positive effect on the hedonic value. Second, relevance was found to have a positive effect on the hedonic value. Third, it was found that confidence did not have a positive effect on the practical value and the hedonic value. Forth, satisfaction was found to have a positive effect on the practical value and the hedonic value. Fifth, practical value was found to have a positive effect on the education achievement. Sixth, hedonic value was found to have a positive effect on the education achievement. Through this, it can be seen that the intrinsic motivation of learners using smart learning affects the education achievement of users through intrinsic and extrinsic value. A variety of smart learning that combines advanced IT technologies such as AI and big data can contribute to improving learners' education achievement more effectively and efficiently. Furthermore, it can contribute a lot to social development.

The current maritime industry is expected to have a significant impact on the role of maritime-related technologies and systems, especially seafarers, in the rapidly changing Fourth Industrial Revolution. The Maritime Autonomous Surface Ship (MASS) aims to reduce the number of safety accidents and improve seafarers' working environment. With regard to MASS, the International Maritime Organization has been trying to minimize unexpected impact in the maritime education and training sector by establishing international conventions such as the Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers. However, domestic designated educational institutions have not yet established an education and training scheme to develop seafarers who will be on board for MASS. Therefore, this paper reviews the technology of MASS, analyzes the changes in education and training in order to upgrade the qualifications, and suggests the competencies of smart seafarers equipped with the integrated management ability required for Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, Cybersecurity, and the Digital System Revolution through education and training. In addition, this study provides basic information for the education and training of seafarers who are optimized for the rapidly changing technological environment.
