  • If an instruction system understood the interest and activeness of a learner in real time, it could provide some interesting factors when a learner is tired of learning. It could work as an adaptive tutoring system to help a learner to understand something difficult to understand. Currently the area of the facial expression recognition mainly deals with the facial expression of adults focusing on anger, hatred, fear, sadness, surprising and gladness. These daily facial expressions couldn't be one of expressions of a learner in e-Learning. They should first study the facial expressions of a learner in e-Learning to recognize the feeling of a learner. Collecting as many expression pictures as possible, they should study the meaning of each expression. This study, as a prior research, analyzes the feelings of learners and facial expressions of learners in e-Learning in relation to the feelings to establish the facial expressions database.

  • This study is to identify whether three types of online instruction (text-based, video-based, and video-based instruction without text) and age category have a different influence on students' comprehension and motivation. Online students were randomly assigned to one of six groups, and they attended two-week online lectures via Course Management System. The comprehension test and the short form of IMMS were implemented when 114 participants accomplished two-week online lectures. The results revealed that using instructional video in online instruction is more effective instructional medium than text only in order to promote learner's motivation. Besides, older adults aged 41-60 are significantly different from younger adults (21-40 years old) in terms of students' comprehension. Furthermore, three types of online instructions are likely to be influenced by age category.

  • Many games for English vocabulary learning, such as hangman, cross puzzle, matching, etc, have been developed which are of board-type or computer game-type. Most of these computer games are adapting strategy-style game plays so that there is a limit on giving the fun, a nature of games, to learners who do not like games of this style. In this paper, a system for memorizing new English words is proposed which is based on a single-player car racing game targeting youths and adults. In the game, the core of our system, a learner drives a car and obtains game points by colliding with English word texts like game items appearing on the track. The learner keeps on viewing English words being exposed on the track while driving, resulting in memorizing those words according to a learning principle stating viewing is memorization. To our experiment, the effect of memorizing English words by our car racing game is good, and the degree of satisfaction with our system as a English vocabulary learning tool is reasonably high. Also, previous word games are suitable for the memory enforcement of English words but our game can be used for the memorization of new words.

  • With the emergence of lifelong learning society and the decrease in school-age population, structural changes of universities are lead to an adult-friendly university system reform. Since 2008, university-based lifelong education activation projects, such as the lifelong learning-centered university cultivation project and the lifelong learning college project have been accelerated as a university lifelong education system support project that integrated both projects in 2015. This study analyzed the present status of university lifelong education system support project management, according to four analysis frameworks; adult-friendly curriculum, adult learner support system, evaluation of diverse learning performances, and empowerment of adult learners, based on adults' learning desire for higher education in a lifelong learning society. University lifelong education system reform suggests to aim at promotion of empowered adult learners, who give themselves positions and roles, through cultural adaptation and integration between generations.

  • The purpose of this study is to survey the learner's recognition about the descending life lines for the fire emergency escaping purpose (DLL-FEEP). For that, we surveyed 307 adult males and females in Chungcheongnam-do, Daejeon metropolitan city, and Sejong metropolitan autonomous city. The surveyed data was statistically analyzed by SPSS 20.0 win program. In the results, 72.64% research participates have received a fire safety education. However, among them, 39.46% research participates have received a fire safety education without the contents of the DLL-FEEP. The style of the education for the DLL-FEEP is mainly the instructor-led training which is 79.26%. The 81.43% research participates have never used a DLL-FEEP. Based on the results in this study, the political proposal based on these results was as follows. We think that the expansion of the educational contents for the DLL-FEEP need in the fire safety education. We believe that results of this paper will help to serve as a basis for the efficient fire safety education with adults.
