  • Recently, as per a representative education method to develop core capabilities (such as critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity) problem based learning (PBL) has been widely adopted in universities. Two important features of PBL are 'collaboration between team members' and 'participation based self-directed learning'. These two features should be satisfied in online education, although it is difficult due to the limitation on space and time in the COVID-19 pandemic. This paper presents a new design of PBL class in Metaverse, based on improving the online PBL class operated in the previous semesters in the H university. In the proposed PBL class, students are able to display materials (e.g., image, pdf, video files) in 3D virtual space, that are related to problem solving. The 3D virtual space is called gallery in this paper. The concept of gallery allows for active participation of students. In addition, the gallery can be used as a tool for collaborative meeting or for final presentation. If possible, the new design of PBL class will be applied and its effectiveness will be analyzed.

  • This study was conducted to explore the applicability and effects of Smart Support System for Creative Problem Solving(S3CPS) in engineering education. S3CPS is an online system developed to support learners' creative problem solving activities based on the CPS model proposed by Treffinger et al.(2000). In this study, it was applied in an engineering course in which students work in teams to design and produce creative robots with the purpose of verifying its effects on creative problem solving and team projects. To address the purpose, interviews and surveys were carried out to examine the effects of S3CPS. The qualitative data were analyzed through a generic coding process. Three ways to apply S3CPS in an engineering course based on team project were derived and effects of the system were also analyzed. It implies that specific design guidelines are required for the optimal use of the system for existing engineering courses.

  • This paper introduces an online collaboration infrastructure in order to build a nationwide collaboration ecosystem in research and education areas. The proposed infrastructure involves domestic research institutes, education institutions and related commercial service vendors. It also includes various systems and services which can promote their online collaboration. Especially it provides the user authentication framework based on identity federation which facilitates the share of various ICT resources across different organizations, thereby enabling the efficient R&D collaboration. We deploy and validate the user authentication framework of the infrastructure on KREONET.

  • This study examines the possibility of a learning environment design model for enhancing creativity in engineering education. Recent studies about the online support system and the blended learning pertinent to creativity have provided us with some new perspectives on how to teach the creativity in engineering college. A learning environment design model was developed to enhance the creativity of the engineering students. A model was developed by following three steps: finding out the general principles for enhancing creativity in engineering education by reviewing the relevant literature; extracting the theoretical components for the model by categorizing the general principles; and finally, developing specific guidelines based on those theoretical components. Seven general design principles and three theoretical components could be identified, and a set of specific design guidelines was suggested. The result of this study is significant in terms of guiding the future development projects for creativity education.

  • The Web based multimedia programmes/courses are becoming widely available in recent years. Most of these courses focus on Behaviorist way of learning, which does not promote deep learning in any way. For Adults this approach further incapacitated, as it does not satisfy Andragogical needs. The search for Constructivist way of learning through the web applied to Indian conditions led to need for developing a curriculum development approach that would promote construction of knowledge through web based collaboration. This paper attempts to reengineer existing curriculum development processes and lays out a framework of‘Problem Based Online Learning (PBOL)’curriculum design. In this context, entire curriculum development life cycle is evolved and explained. This is a part of doctoral work (Ph.D), which is in progress and being undertaken by K.James Mathai, and guided of Dr.D.S.Karaulia.

  • The primary goals of this paper are to design an interactive education platform conveying a variety of haptic sensations to developmental disorder children when they touch the education platform. The proposed interactive education platform is composed of a kinesthetic module, a vibrotactile module, a thermal module. and a controller. The design focuses of the proposed education platform were to create sufficiently large kinesthetic forces, vibrations, and temperatures and to convey them to users. We have conducted experiments for evaluating the proposed system and found out three modules function safely and effectively as an educational platform.

  • The purpose of this study is to suggest a countermeasure against a major cause that leads to game addiction, by grasping tendency of the actual condition for the online game use in freshmen for university and by analyzing relationship of game addiction according to factors. As a result of analyzing on relationship among sub-variables for game addiction, it could be known that the more men in gender leads to the more serious game addiction and that the longer game time given using once leads to the higher level in control loss and game addiction. Also, it was indicated that the more in group with high risk leads to the more serious in physical and mental problem. There is a suggestion that a scale related to game is developed for the expansion in counseling institution nationwide and for the preventive education targeting all the ages including undergraduates and adults as well as small children and children.

  • Using the Operating Systems course that is offered by online, a blended learning mixed up with face-to-face lecture and e-learning for O.S. course has been carried out. In order to find a efficient management way of the blended learning, we build up two groups: one group named 01 takes a class which consists of two hours face-to-face lecture and one hour online study per week and the other group named 02 takes a class which consists of two hours online study and one hour face-to-face lecture. According to the result of a mid-term examination, the Cohen's d between two groups is 0.165. It means the small effect size. The 01 group has higer average and smaller variance than 02 group. However, 02 group has more students who earn high score than 01 group. In conclusion, if students can well carry out the self-regulated learning, then the blended learning mixed up with 02 group style is suitable. Otherwise, face-to-face lecture or the blended learning like 01 group style is suitable.

  • Daily life such as society, economy, and culture is fundamentally changing due to COVID-19, and digital transformation based on information technology (IT) such as artificial intelligence, data, and cloud is accelerating. In this study, we focused on the metaverse, which is based on the interaction between the virtual world and the real world, and explored the possibility of using the metaverse-based platform for education. The metaverse-based platform was approached from the perspective of the online education ecosystem, which means that not only online teaching and learning activities but also holistic educational activities such as learning, communication, and empathy are performed within the metaverse. In this metaverse platform, learners can feel the presence of learning, and learning motivation and immersion can be promoted. In addition, it is possible to experience self-directed learning based on the autonomy of spatial movement. Although there are technical and ethical limitations to applying the metaverse platform, it would be preferable to focus more on the interaction between learners in the metaverse world rather than high expectations.
