Multimedia-Assisted Language Learning(MALL) has recently been studied by many researchers. It has been reported that MALL is very effective in encouraging students' desire for learning, promoting their self-directed learning, and improving their communicative competence. Also, it has been evident that it depends on the quality of multimedia courseware whether MALL will be successful or not. However, many researchers have pointed out that most of multimedia coursewares coming into the market have little to do with our curriculum and they are not suitable for the use in the regular classroom. More multimedia coursewares that reflect our curriculum need to be developed. This paper first tries to explore the cognitive, constructivist, and psychological theories supportive of the development of multimedia courseware and then presents the overall procedure for designing and developing a multimedia courseware pursuant to the 7th English curriculum in the middle school. The multimedia courseware developed through this research is expected to enhance middle school students' communicative language skills in English and promote the development of multimedia coursewares of high quality.

This paper presents a stable learning algorithm for diagonal recurrent neural network(DRNN). DRNN is applied to a problem of controlling nonlinear dynamical systems. A architecture of DRNN is a modified model of the Recurrent Neural Network(RNN) with one hidden layer, and the hidden layer is comprised of self-recurrent neurons. DRNN has considerably fewer weights than RNN. Since there is no interlinks amongs in the hidden layer. DRNN is dynamic mapping and is better suited for dynamical systems than static forward neural network. To guarantee convergence and for faster learning, an adaptive learning rate is developed by using Lyapunov function. The ability and effectiveness of identifying and controlling a nonlinear dynamic system using the proposed algorithm is demonstrated by computer simulation.

강화 학습(Reinforcement Learning)을 실제 문제에 적용하는 데 있어 가장 큰 문제는 차원성의 저주(Curse of dimensionality)이다. 문제가 커짐에 따라 목적을 이루기 위해서 더 않은 단계의 판단이 필요하고 이에 따라 문제의 해결이 지수적으로 어려워지게 된다. 이를 해결하기 위칠 문제를 여러 단계로 나누어 단계별로 학습하는 계층적 강화 학습(Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning)이 제시된 바 있다. 하지만 대부분의 계층적 강화 학습 방법들은 사전에 문제의 구조를 아는 것을 전제로 하며 큰 사이즈의 문제를 간단히 표현할 방법을 제시하지 않는다. 따라서 이들 방법들도 실제적인 문제에 바로 적용하기에는 적합하지 않다. 이러한 문제점들을 해결하기 위해 복잡계 네트워크(Complex Network)가 갖는 작은 세상 성질(Small world Property)에 착안하여 자기조직화 하는 생장 네트워크(Self organizing growing network)를 기반으로 한 환경 표현 모델이 제안된 바 있다. 이러한 모델에서는 문제 크기가 커지더라도 네트워크의 사이즈가 크게 커지지 않기 때문에 문제의 난이도가 크기에 따라 크게 증가하지 않을 것을 기대할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 환경 모델을 사용한 강화 학습 알고리즘을 구현하고 실험을 통하여 각 모델이 강화 학습의 문제 사이즈에 따른 성능에 끼치는 영향에 대해 알아보았다.

It is important to encourage students who are having difficulty learning mathematics and majors due to lack of basic knowledge, and encourage them to improve their academic performance by focusing on and participating in class. The purpose of this study is to confirm the applicability of the Jigsaw Method by analyzing the change of the learner's academic achievement and the attitude of the learner's mathematics by applying the Jigsaw Model. During the four weeks, the Jigsaw Model was applied to 30 experimental students and the instructor-led lectures were given to 36 students in the comparative group. As a result of the study, it was confirmed that the average of the experimental groups applying the Jigsaw model was higher than the average of the comparative group in the lecture class. The results of the survey showed that the Jigsaw Model increased class concentration and participation, helped self - directed learning, and had high learning satisfaction.

The goal of this study is to explore the possibility of applying the podcasting in Korean education for foreign students. To achieve this goal, concepts and applicability of the podcasting is discussed. Previous studies on foreign language education are reviewed and the cases on Korean language education based on technology using mobile phones are investigated. Some of the outstanding merits of the podcasting are found to be its accessibility, mobility and variability along with its room for control by the learners. It also enables the learners to be motivated and to enhance their learning ability. In addition, the podcasting with the content-based instruction is applied for the foreign students majoring in business and its results and implications are discussed. Based on the above results of this study, more active discussions are expected on such issues as educational designs through the podcasting, related variables and the performance evaluation.

In this paper, we present a two-stage scalable channel estimator (TSCE), a deep learning (DL)-based scalable, and robust channel estimator for wireless cellular networks, which is made up of two DL networks to efficiently support different resource allocation sizes and reference signal configurations. Both networks use the transformer, one of cutting-edge neural network architecture, as a backbone for accurate estimation. For computation-efficient global feature extractions, we propose using window and window averaging-based self-attentions. Our results show that TSCE learns wireless propagation channels correctly and outperforms both traditional estimators and baseline DL-based estimators. Additionally, scalability and robustness evaluations are performed, revealing that TSCE is more robust in various environments than the baseline DL-based estimators.

Currently, attempts are being made to introduce innovative teaching methods in architectural engineering education. However, there is still a lack of research supporting self-directed learners. In this regard, this study sought to develop an application prototype to support learning from online lectures on architectural engineering and conduct prototyping for its evolution. Menus in the application prototype consisted of four main categories: lecture operation, video lectures, eBooks and past exam questions. The lecture operation was classified into eight sub-categories, including assignment submission and notice, so as to support interactions between instructors and learners as well as confirmation of the delivery methods. With respect to video lectures, assignment submissions and notice functions, prototyping connecting the mobile web was implemented to enhance user convenience.

Cognitive presence, a sense of "being there" cognitively, has recently been considered as an important indicator for students' engagement in e-learning. There is, however, no widely accepted scale to measure the level of cognitive presence since most studies have put their effort to set and clarify the conceptual framework with qualitative methodology. This study reviewed existing theories on cognitive presence and related fields extensively and developed a new self-report scale for measuring the conceived level of cognitive presence. The reliability and validity of the scale was tested against 723 undergraduate students in two consecutive studies, 418 in the preliminary and 305 in the follow-up study. Three major constructs to measure the perceived level of cognitive presence were: 1) clear understanding, 2) knowledge construction, and 3) learning management. This paper reports the final results of the two independent studies.
