  • Advances in information and telecommunication technology increasingly reveal the potential of computer supported education. However, most computer supported learning systems until recently did not pay much attention to different characteristics of individual learners. Intelligent learning environments adaptive to learner's preferences and tasks are desired. Each learner has different preferences and needs, so it is very crucial to provide the different styles of learners with different learning environments that are more preferred and more efficient to them. This paper reports a study of the intelligent learning environment where the learner's preferences are diagnosed using learner models, and then user interfaces are customized in an adaptive manner to accommodate the preferences. In this research, the learning user interfaces were designed based on a learning-style model by Felder & Silverman, so that different learner preferences are revealed through user interactions with the system. Then, a learning style modeling is done from learner behavior patterns using Decision Tree and Neural Network approaches. In this way, an intelligent learning system adaptive to learning styles can be built. Further research efforts are being made to accommodate various other kinds of learner characteristics such as emotion and motivation as well as learning mastery in providing adaptive learning support.

  • The purpose of this study is to propose a design model for school library based instruction under EduTech. EduTech-based education expands learning boundaries and requires new instructional environments and learning experiences for learner-centered deeper learning. Accordingly, this study modified the ADDIE model based on the system theory and presented a four-stage instructional design model (draft) consisting of 'analysis stage, preliminary learning and development stage, learning management stage, and team teaching evaluation stage.' This model reflects elements of flipped learning, the backward design model, and inquiry-based learning to develop of customized student materials and inquiry activities. In addition, the scope of learning was expanded to include prior learning, face-to-face learning, and additional learning to increase the diversity of collaboration and opportunities to utilize school library materials. Also, Several ways for school library based instruction within EduTec were proposed in terms of teacher librarians' expertise, school library space, budget, standard curriculum development, and comprehensive support system for reading education.

  • The present thesis aims to analyze in consideration of recent changes in teaching environment in the universities the commercial digital contents and e-learning courses provided by the libraries, and to propose the ways to encourage university library service needed under the current situation. A survey of professors and students upon the quality of commercial digital contents service provided by the libraries in I University was made to measure its influence upon e-learning courses. The quality of commercial digital contents service provided by libraries was measured through Digital Library Service Quality Index (which will be referred as DL-SQL Model from here), which is used as a model to examine the Digital Library Service, with partial adjustments of 4 levels (information system service, digital books service, customer service quality, and customer community service) and 7 components (search possibility, an exclusive organization and interface, accessibility, digital books, customer support service, personalized service, and customer community). Among the library services in regard to digital contents, "customer service" and "customer community service" were analyzed to have stronger influence upon e-learning teaching and studying than quality-based service for "information system" and "digital books". Consequently, it is concluded that customized information service provided by the library for the professors who teach e-learning courses and their students is more influential to supporting e-learning courses than quantity pushing service through purchasing commercial digital contents, upon which the direction of digital contents policy to provide library services for e-learning courses should be based.

  • This study aims to examine trends in personalized education in South Korea by analyzing major keywords from big news data using topic modeling techniques. To achieve this objective, we analyzed 19,874 news articles published in South Korea between January 2018 and October 2023. The keywords were categorized into three distinct time periods: January 2018 to December 2019 (Period 1), January 2020 to December 2021 (Period 2), and January 2022 to October 2023 (Period 3). The results reveal distinct keyword trends across the three periods. In Period 1, keywords such as "university," "junior college," "Seoul," and "Samsung Electronics" were prominent. In Period 2, "Corona," "Seoul," and "AI" emerged as significant terms. In Period 3, "government," "AI," "region," "students," and "youth" were identified. These findings indicate a focus on personalized education and competency development at various levels, including local, national, and institutional (universities and colleges). We can confirm the increasing prevalence of personalized education in response to the growing demand for digital and AI technologies, with numerous colleges nationwide promoting these initiatives at a national level. Additionally, the application of personalized education was observed as a measure to support underachieving students, addressing issues such as educational gaps and foundational education. This suggests a blend of both universal and specific approaches to personalized education. Based on these findings, the study recommends that to properly progress this idea, an elaborate theoretical framework that creates a balance between the pedagogical objective of satisfying the requirements of particular learners and adaptive learning technology would be needed.

  • An academic library is one of the largest information sources for international students to obtain learning resources, which have a great impact on their studies. However, most academic libraries currently have not provided adequate multilingual services except English, which makes it difficult for international students whose mother language is not English to perform academic work. Accordingly, the present study defines the customized services for international students as the ones that have been supported in ltiple languages among academic library services and aims to examine their effect on user satisfaction in academic libraries. Furthermore, the study has compared international students' satisfaction with academic libraries - one that provides appropriate customized services with the other that does not. The surveys have been conducted with Chinese international students in two different universities and a total of 138 responses were analyzed. The study found that the customized services for the international students influenced their satisfaction with library use. In particular, multilingual services had positive effects on satisfaction with services such as brochures/signs, access to and use of resources through the homepage, and user instruction. The findings of the study suggest practical insights on how academic libraries provide effective services for supporting international students' academic tasks.

  • This study aimed to track changes in students' perception about schools over time, to analyze how participation in the Education Welfare Priority Support Project(hereafter "the Project") explains the changes, and to determine how the results of changes affect students' learning engagement, self-confidence, and peer relationship. Data were collected from 103 schools nation-wide(51 elementary and 52 middle schools) from 2015, 2016 and 2017 from 820, 911, and 837 students, respectively. The data were analyzed by applying a latent growth model with two stages: unconditional and conditional. The findings are that first, the perception about schools by the students who participated in the Project increased over time; and second, that the improvement of students' perception of schools has a positive influence on their learning engagement, self-confidence, and peer relationship. In the future, it was suggested that programs aimed at improving positive perception about schools should be provided to all students led by teachers, and a customized integrated support program should be arranged to students in need of intensive support by the educational welfare specialists.
