This study investigated differences in beliefs about English learning of 286 EFL college students and 52 English teachers in Korea. Data was collected using Horwitz's Beliefs About Language Learning Inventory and compared between students and teachers in beliefs. To address the research questions, the data were analyzed through descriptive statistics including frequencies, factor analysis, MANOVA, ANOVA, t-test, and reliability coefficients. The results showed four factors in student beliefs: Difficulty of learning English, nature of learning English, importance of correctness in learning English, and motivation and perceived importance of learning English. Clear differences were found in students and teachers' beliefs in English learning aptitude and importance of translation, error correction, and grammar rules. A few belief differences were also identified between Koreans and native-speaking English teachers related to the importance of vocabulary learning, pronunciation, and cultural knowledge. The findings of the study indicated that background variables such as gender and major field of study have an effect on student beliefs about L2 learning. The present study also provided pedagogical considerations to reduce mismatch between students and teachers beliefs and to improve the L2 planning and instruction.

본 연구는 PBL(Problem Based Learning) 수업에서 학생들에 수행하는 과제에 켈러의 ARCS에 의해 동기설계를 반영하였을 때, 학습자의 교과흥미와 과제난이도 인식 수준에 미치는 영향을 탐색하기 위해서 수행되었다. 이를 위해서 일반교직을 전공하는 대학생 79명을 대상으로 수행되었다. 연구를 위해서 실험집단과 비교집단을 구성하였다. 교과 흥미와 과제난이도 인식 수준의 사전 수준을 측정하기 위해 1차 PBL 과제를 수행하였다. 다음으로 동기 설계가 반영된 과제의 영향을 검증하기 위해 2차 PBL 활동 수행하였다. 실험집단은 동기설계가 반영된 과제를 수행하였고, 비교집단은 동기설계가 반영이 되지 않은 과제를 수행하였다. 2차 PBL 활동이 종료된 후에 교과흥미와 과제난이도 인식 수준을 측정하였다. 수집된 자료는 사전 수준을 공변량으로 선정하여 ANCOVA를 사용하여 자료를 분석하였다. 그 결과 실험집단의 교과흥미 수준이 통계적으로 유의미하게 향상되었고, 과제난이도 인식 수준은 통계적으로 유의미하게 낮아진 것으로 검증되었다.

This study aims at setting the hierarchy of difficulty of the 7 Korean monophthongs for Mongolian learners of Korean according to Prator's theory based on the Contrastive Analysis Hypothesis. In addition to that, it will be shown that the difficulties and errors for Mongolian learners of Korean as a second or foreign language proceed directly from this hierarchy of difficulty. This study began by looking at the speeches of 60 Mongolians for Mongolian monophthongs; data were investigated and analyzed into formant frequencies F1 and F2 of each vowel. Then, the 7 Korean monophthongs were compared with the resultant Mongolian formant values and are assigned to 3 levels, 'same', 'similar' or 'different sound'. The findings in assessing the differences of the 8 nearest equivalents of Korean and Mongolian vowels are as follows: First, Korean /a/ and /$\wedge$/ turned out as a 'same sound' with their counterparts, Mongolian /a/ and /ɔ/. Second, Korean /i/, /e/, /o/, /u/ turned out as a 'similar sound' with each their Mongolian counterparts /i/, /e/, /o/, /u/. Third, Korean /ɨ/ which is nearest to Mongolian /i/ in terms of phonetic features seriously differs from it and is thus assigned to 'different sound'. And lastly, Mongolian /$\mho$/ turned out as a 'different sound' with its nearest counterpart, Korean /u/. Based on these findings the hierarchy of difficulty was constructed. Firstly, 4 Korean monophthongs /a/, /$\wedge$/, /i/, /e/ would be Level 0(Transfer); they would be transferred positively from their Mongolian counterparts when Mongolians learn Korean. Secondly, Korean /o/, /u/ would be Level 5(Split); they would require the Mongolian learner to make a new distinction and cause interference in learning the Korean language because Mongolian /o/, /u/ each have 2 similar counterpart sounds; Korean /o, u/, /u, o/. Thirdly, Korean /ɨ/ which is not in the Mongolian vowel system will be Level 4(Overdifferentiation); the new vowel /ɨ/ which bears little similarity to Mongolian /i/, must be learned entirely anew and will cause much difficulty for Mongolian learners in speaking and writing Korean. And lastly, Mongolian /$\mho$/ will be Level 2(Underdifferentiation); it is absent in the Korean language and doesn‘t cause interference in learning Korean as long as Mongolian learners avoid using it.

The main purpose of the study was to examine relationships of child development with maternal social networks and maternal perceptions of parenting difficulty. Subjects were 90 children, ages 4 and 5, with their mothers. Child development was measured by School Readiness Test, peer nomination, and social competency ratings by teachers. Mothers responded to a questionnaire regarding social networks and parenting difficulty. The major findings of the study include: 1) Employed mothers reported receiving less emotional support and listed more in-laws and work colleagues in their social network than unemloyed mothers. 2) Mothers who perceived receiving more emotional support from networks reported less difficulty in parenting, especially in providing cognitive stimulation and daily routine care to their children. 3) Children's age and maternal perceptions of easiness in providing cognitive stimulation were the most contributing factors for predicting children's learning readiness and social competency.

This project aims to design and develop a prototype for an agent that support online collaborative learning. Online collaborative learning, which has emerged as a new form of education in the knowledge-based society, is regarded as an effective method for improving practical and highly advanced problem-solving abilities. Collaborative learning involves complicated processes, such as organizing teams, setting common goals, performing tasks, and evaluating the outcome of team activities. Thus, a teacher may have difficulty promoting and evaluating the entire process of collaborative learning, and a system may need to be developed to support it. Therefore, to promote interaction among learners in the process of collaborative learning, this study designed an extensible collaborative learning agent (ECOLA) for an online learning environment.

In this study, a men-tutoring model was applied to four second-year high school students in mathematics learning counseling that could cultivate cognitive and affective domains. By observing and analyzing the cases, we examined the effects of mathematics learning counseling on students' mathematical attitudes and self-regulated learning ability. The results of mentoring applied to mathematics learning counseling had a positive effect on reinforcing prerequisite learning, improving self-regulated learning ability, strengthening mathematical strategies, and inducing learning motivation and maintaining interest. We are looking forward to that men-tutoring can be used effectively for students who have difficulty learning mathematics.

Purpose: This study sought to identify the factors influencing learning motivation and demotivation in online dental technology students. Methods: A survey was conducted from October 1 to 30, 2021, on 188 dental technology students. The collected data were processed using the IBM SPSS IBM SPSS Statistics ver. 22.0 statistical program (IBM), and frequency, factor, and one-way ANOVA analyses were performed, for which the significance was set at 0.05. Results: It was found that the main online learning motivation factors were the usefulness of the learning content, interest, and confidence in the activities, the relationships with the teachers and friends, the feedback, and learning satisfaction. The factors that reduced the students' online learning motivation were interaction difficulties, maladaptation to the self-directed learning environment, the inadequate number of learning activities, and activity difficulty. Conclusion: Based on the identified online class motivation and demotivation factors, better systematic management and increased research are needed to improve the quality of non-face-to-face classes.

IT기술을 교육 서비스에 접목시키는 에듀테크 시대가 도래함에 따라, 음악 교육에서도 다양한 시도들이 행해지고 있다. 교수자 중심에서 학습자 중심으로 옮아가면서 학습자 맞춤형 학습에 대해 관심이 높아졌으며, 이를 위해서 학습자의 숙련도를 파악하는 것이 필요하다. 피아노 학습에서 코드 운지법은 반주자가 필수적으로 익혀야 할 기법이다. 본 논문에서는 맞춤형 코드 운지법 학습 도구를 제안하고 코드 운지법 패턴 분석을 통한 활용 방안을 보였다. 구체적으로는, 학습자의 축적된 코드 연습 데이터를 활용하여 코드의 난이도나 학습자의 숙련도를 파악하고, 코드 사이의 유사도에 기반한 계층적 클러스터링을 수행하여 코드 클러스터들을 통하여 보다 향상된 코드 연습에 대한 활용방안을 제시하였다. 본 연구의 의의는 연습 데이터로부터 의미 있는 정보를 획득하여 맞춤형으로 코드 학습을 할 수 있다는 데 있다. 또한 테스트와 같은 부가적인 노력 없이, 연습 시에 저장되는 데이터들을 이용하여 숙련도와 코드 학습 난이도가 산정되므로 학습자 입장에서의 부담을 경감시킬 수 있다.

웹 기반 학습시스템에서 학습자의 학습효율을 높이기 위하여 자기조절학습, 자기주도학습 등의 방법이 사용되고 있다. 이러한 방법들은 학습자의 학습수준을 고려한 방법이지만 학습자의 정확한 학습능력을 고려하기 위해서는 수준별 학습의 적용이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 학습자의 학습능력을 고려한 학습 시스템을 제시하였다. 학습자의 학습능력을 설정하기 위하여 문항반응이론을 사용하였으며, 학습 콘텐츠와 학습문항은 각 난이도에 따라 개발 및 적용되었다.
