Abstract

The purpose of this study is to discover if the use of computer technologies in computer-assisted language learning, in the aspect of vocabulary learning, is both effective and useful. The technique of using multimedia lessons, using the computer, offers a variety of language learning tasks in relation to the four basic language learning skills. Korean students have been accustomed to a cramming style of education, and they utilize rote memorization for learning vocabulary. This study consisted of surveys and experiments, using specific multimedia language learning courseware exercises on three different age groups. The study explores the issues and problems that followed, and how teachers could effectively apply or enhance their vocabulary teaching through computer-assisted multimedia which is suited for a variety of levels versus the classroom off-line vocabulary learning application which is suited to one level.

본 연구의 목적은 어휘 학습의 측면에서 컴퓨터 보조 학습을 통한 컴퓨터 기술의 효과와 유용성을 알아보고자 하는데 있다. 컴퓨터 기술을 통한 멀티미디어 수업은 네 가지 (듣기, 말하기, 일기, 쓰기의) 언어기술과 관련하여 다양한 언어학습방법을 제공한다. 한국인 영어 언어 학습자는 주입식 교육에 익숙해져 왔으며, 단어를 습득하는데 있어 반복적인 어휘 암기방법을 활용한다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 세 가지 연령 그룹을 대상으로 설문 조사와 교육용 멀티미디어 학습실험이 이루어져있다. 본 연구는 오프라인에서의 어휘학습과 다르게 교사는 컴퓨터 멀티미디어프로그램을 응용하여 교실 수준에 적합한 어휘 학습 응용 프로그램을 어떻게 효과적으로 개선 할 수 있는지 밝히고자 한다.
