This study analyzed the effects of a Micro-learning content-based extracurricular program among university students based on their general characteristics. A survey was conducted on 600 students affiliated with G University, a major national university. Learning immersion and learning motivation were used as the key indicators for measuring the learning effects. Cronbach's α coefficient analysis was performed to validate the reliability of the learning effect measurement tool. Independent sample t-tests were utilized to analyze differences in learning immersion and learning motivation based on gender and major disciplines. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was employed to measure differences in learning immersion and learning motivation according to academic year. According to the research findings, gender and academic year did not significantly influence participation in the Micro-learning content-based program. However, differences in learning immersion and learning motivation were observed depending on the major discipline. Based on this, it is suggested that future programs should provide suitable environments and stimuli based on the students' major disciplines.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of professor-student interaction experienced by college students majoring in aviation service on academic self-efficacy and learning immersion. Considering the special nature of aviation service majors and the social changes in university education, we examined how emotional, academic, and career interactions between professors and students affect students' academic achievement and learning immersion. As a result of the study, it is confirmed that academic interaction among professor-student interactions has a positive effect on academic self-efficacy. On the other hand, emotional and career interactions among professor-student interactions do not have a significant effect on academic self-efficacy. In addition, it is analyzed that academic interaction had a positive effect on cognitive, emotional, and behavioral immersion, which are sub-factors of learning immersion. This study suggests that strengthening academic interaction with professors plays an important role in increasing academic self-efficacy and promoting learning immersion among aviation service major college students. In addition, we hope to provide basic data for establishing practical educational plans.

This study is a descriptive research study to analyze the relationship between learning motivation, learning immersion, and self-directed learning. For this study, data were collected from August 1 to 30, 2021. The collected data were analyzed using the IBM SPSS/WIN 22.0 program. The learning motivation was positively correlated with learning immersion and self-directed learning. In analysis results, the factors affecting learning immersion are learning motivation and self-directed learning. And it was confirmed that self-direction was a partial mediating factor in the relationship between learning motivation and learning immersion. Learning motivation is an important factor for nursing students' learning immersion and self-directed learning. Therefore, specific measures to improve self-directed learning should be prepared for learning immersion. Therefore, nursing students' self-directed learning is an important factor for learning motivation and learning immersion, and specific measures to improve that should be prepared.

This study intends to present a desirable vision so that students can focus on their studies and adapt to the dental hygiene major education perceived by dental hygiene students in un-contact lecturess situations by preparing measures to increase student satisfaction with the dental hygiene department. Data collection was conducted using a self-reported questionnaire from students in the dental hygiene department at universities in Seoul, Chungcheong, and Gangwon from June 20 to August 19, 2021. Variables according to the general characteristics of the subjects were analyzed using t-test and one-way ANOVA, and the post hoc test was verified by Tukey. The correlation between variables was Pearson's correlation, and the factors affecting dental hygiene and students' major satisfaction were multiple regression. The self-directed learning ability of dental hygiene students was 3.57 points, learning immersion was 3.02 points, and major satisfaction was 3.54 points. Dental hygiene students were found to have higher major satisfaction with higher grades, higher college life satisfaction, and higher learning immersion and self-directed learning ability. Therefore, it was found that systematic program development and application is necessary to improve major satisfaction in difficult circumstances due to COVID-19.

The purpose of this study was to examine the pathways between mothers' inappropriate smart device usage habits, preschoolers' immersion tendency and self-regulation, and children's cognitive ability. The subjects of the study were 308 preschoolers aged 4 and 5 years and their mothers in Seoul, Gyeonggi-do, Incheon, Gangwon-do, Daejeon, Busan, and Mokpo. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, and Pearson correlation using the SPSS 25 program. A sequential mediation model was analyzed using the AMOS 22 program. Mothers' inappropriate smart device usage habits were found to have a negative effect on the preschoolers' self-regulation, and this association was mediated by the preschoolers' smart device immersion tendency. These findings show the mechanisms through which mothers' inappropriate smart device usage habits negatively affect preschoolers' smart device immersion and self-regulation which, in turn, has a negative impact on cognitive ability
