This study intended to evaluate the viability of cyber education in terms of learning satisfaction and learning achievement. The study integrated two research streams such as social presence model and learning environment model. Where the learning environment model emphasizes the components of learning aids, social presence model considers more deeply the relationships among peers and with instructors. These two research streams have been considered relatively independently. The study integrated these ideas and measured their reliabilities and validities. The results demonstrate that the two constructs are relevantly independent and both of these constructs are very important considerations for the success of cyber education. The study concludes that cyber education 2.0 requires more social presence factors than the learning environment factors such as technological development or new equipments.

Due to the Corona-19 pandemic, online education has grown worldwide and it is now being predicted that online education will dominate the future of education. This study examines, as characteristics of the human factor, the effect of self-efficacy; as system factors influencing learners' satisfaction with online learning and behavioral intention to use online learning, this study examines perceived social presence and perceived teaching presence. Participating in this study were 236 students who filled out an online survey in return for course credits. Study findings suggest that individuals with high social presence and teaching presence will have higher satisfaction with online learning and higher behavioral intention to use online learning than those with low social presence and teaching presence. The study also found that individuals with high self-efficacy have higher satisfaction with online learning and higher behavioral intention to use online learning than those with low self-efficacy. This study provides theoretical implications as well as practical implications for e-learning educators when it comes to enhancing students' satisfaction with online learning and behavioral intention to use online learning.

This study is a descriptive research study to verify the relationship between social presence, cognitive presence, and online learning satisfaction, and to identify factors that influence online learning satisfaction of nursing students who experienced Asynchronous Online Discussion Activities. The study was conducted in December, 2020 for two months, and the participants were 93 grade 4 nursing students attending universities nationwide. The t-test, ANOVA, correlation, and multiple regression analysis were run on the collected data. There was a significant positive correlation between nursing students' social presence, cognitive presence, and online learning satisfaction. Online learning satisfaction had a positive effect on social presence. The explanatory power of online learning satisfaction was 62.9%. Based on the above results, in order to increase online learning satisfaction, a plan is needed to improve nursing students' social presence for online discussion classes.

Despite the potential implications of Facebook use, there is a distinct lack of empirically derived theory for designing learning environment. This may be because Facebook is a social tool and there has been limited opportunity for exploratory research regarding Facebook based learning. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate learning presence factors affecting learning outcomes in Facebook-based collaborative learning. Forty two college students participated in the Facebook-based collaborative learning activity, and the data from thirty nine were used for step-wise multiple regression analysis. In addition focus group interview was conducted to examine learning presence of Facebook-based collaborative learning. The results reported that cognitive presence predicted significantly learning outcomes, however, social and emotional presence did not predict learning outcomes. The implication of this study and future research were discussed in this research.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect on the grit, learning reality, and learning satisfaction for nursing students using the flipped learning teaching method. We developed a flipped learning educational program using ADDIE model for nursing students and evaluated the program effect. As a result of this study, the grit (t=-3.07, p=.003), the learning presence (t=-4.87, p<.001) and the learning satisfaction (t=-5.18, p<.001) significantly increased after flip learning method application. The Grit shown to have a significant positive correlation with learning presence (r = .47, p<.001), and learning satisfaction (r = .26, p<.005). The learning presence shown to have a significant positive correlation with learning satisfaction (r = .548, p<.001). The flipped learning teaching method may improve the grit, learning reality, and learning satisfaction. Various efforts will be needed to lay the foundation for flipped learning teaching methods in the field of nursing education in the future.

The purpose of the study is to explore the effect of university's managing and system support in online classes on learning participation mediated by learning presence and to examine the structural relationship between the factors. In order to achieve the purpose of the study, 135 students who take online "College English 2" classes were analyzed for the fitness of the research model and the path and structural analysis through a confirmative factor of the structural equation model. As a result of the study, first, the university's managing support for online class showed a positive effect to learning presence. Second, the university's managing support for online classes completely mediated learning presence and had a positive effect on learning participation. This study can clarify the structural relationship between environmental factors which are online class support and learners' characteristics in university online class, learning presence, and learning participation and can broaden the understanding of learning participation in online classes. It gives the implications that should be considered in teaching and learning design.

Research on ways to improve e-learning effectiveness has been actively conducted due to the increased numbers of web-based e-learning learners. Of many variables related to e-learning effectiveness, self-regulated learning strategy and presence have been reported as major factors that influences academic achievement in e-learning settings. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of self-regulated learning strategy and presence on academic achievement in web-based e-learning. In addition, this study tried to provide useful basic data for successful support and design of e-learning by verifying the mediating effect of these variables. As a result, it was verified that teaching presence and social presence have mediating effects in the relationship between self-regulated learning strategy and perceived achievement in web-based e-learning. Moreover, subjective perception of student's academic achievement played a mediating role between learners' perceived presence and academic achievement. Through this study, it is verified that it is necessary to search for ways to improve the level of learners' teaching presence and social presence in web-based e-learning design in order to eventually improve academic achievement.

Virtual reality (VR) technologies, which have been improved of late, offer experiences closer to reality than before. While VR technologies are expected to be an effective medium if used in learning content that cannot be offered in real life, distraction factors in VR technologies may prevent the users' presence and flow, making these technologies ineffective. Therefore, this study, through experiment and observation, analyzed the effect of distraction factors on the user's experience perception and learning effect when using HMD-based immersive VR. Experimental results revealed that the distraction factors were shown to have a negative, albeit not generally significant (except for tactile interactivity), effect on vividness, tactile interactivity, locomotive interactivity, presence, and flow. Ultimately, they were shown to have a negative effect on learning.
