Abstract

In the non-face-to-face learning environment forced into effect by the COVID-19 pandemic, online learning is being adopted as a major educational technique. Given the lack of research on how online learning patterns affect academic performance, this study focuses on the number and duration of online video learning sessions as a major factor based on midterm and final exams, and with a formative assessment for each type of learning. The correlation of the learning effects was analyzed. The analysis focused on computer programming subjects, which are among the most difficult liberal arts subjects for arts and science students at the university level. The analysis of cases of actual students showed no correlation among weekly formative assessments, the number of learning sessions, and the learning duration. On the other hand, the number of learning sessions (r=.39 p<0.05) and learning duration (r=.42 p<0.05) were correlated with the midterm and final exams. Elements, such as SMS text, bulletin board, and e-mail, were excluded from the analysis because not all students have access to them. Therefore, the results can be improved if future analysis of the students' learning patterns in a non-face-to-face lecture environment is performed considering more factors/elements and the learners' needs.

코로나19로 인해서 비대면 강의환경에서 온라인 학습이 교육환경의 주요 학습기법으로 채택되고 있다. 온라인 학습패턴이 학업성적에 어떤 영향을 미치는지에 관한 연구가 부족하여, 본 연구에서는 학습자들의 온라인 동영상 학습횟수와 시간을 주요 요소로 두고, 매 학습에 대한 형성 평가와 함께 중간고사 기말고사를 바탕으로 학습효과의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 분석 대상은 대학에서 예체능 학부 학생들이 가장 어려워하는 교양 과목 중 컴퓨터 프로그래밍 교과목을 분석하였다. 실제 학생들의 사례를 분석한 결과 매주 실시한 형성 평가와 학습회수, 학습 시간과는 상관관계가 없는 것으로 나타났고, 중간고사와 기말고사와는 평소 학습회수(r=.39 p<0.05)와 학습 시간(r=.42 p<0.05)이 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 강의 진행 과정에서 SMS 문자, 게시판, 메일 등의 요소는 모든 학생이 접하지 못하여 제외하였으므로, 앞으로는 좀 더 다양한 요인을 고려하여 비대면 강의환경에서의 학습자 패턴을 분석하고 연구한다면 학습자들의 요구와 학습효과를 향상할 수 있을 것이다.
