Abstract

Covid-19, which has made a huge difference in our daily lives, has also brought major changes to our college education. As the class was changed from the traditional face-to-face class to a non face-to-face class, both teachers and students had difficulties in adapting, and problems such as the occurrence of academic achievement gaps due to non face-to-face classes were also raised. Therefore, this study aims to find out what attitudes students have toward non-face-to-face classes at universities caused by Covid-19. Accordingly, this study tried to identify the types of subjective perceptions college students have toward non-face-to-face classes by applying the Q methodology, and to suggest points for reference in the development and improvement of non-face-to-face classes in the future. Five types were found as a result of analysis using 30 P samples and 34 Q samples. First, learning efficiency-oriented type, second, class participation and communication-oriented type, third, non-face-to-face class active acceptance and utilization type, fourth, dissatisfaction type due to remote system and equipment operation errors, fifth, passive response type according to the situation to be. From the results of this study, it seems that it is necessary to develop an educational method for effective non-face-to-face class considering the characteristics of each type, and the merits of non-face-to-face classes, especially recorded lectures, in terms of learning efficiency, are evident. Therefore, even if face-to-face classes are conducted entirely at universities, it is believed that providing video-recorded lectures in class will be of great help to students' learning.

우리의 일상생활에 큰 변화를 가져온 코비드-19는 대학 교육에도 역시 큰 변화를 가져왔다. 전통적인 대면 수업방식에서 비대면 방식으로 변경되어 수업이 이루어지면서 교수자와 학생 모두 적응에 애를 먹는 모습을 보였고, 비대면 수업으로 인한 학력 격차의 발생 등의 문제 역시 제기되었다. 이에 본 연구는 코비드-19로 인한 대학의 비대면 수업에 대해 학생들이 어떠한 태도를 보이는지 알아보고자 하였다. 이에 본 연구는 Q 방법론을 적용하여 대학생들이 비대면 수업에 대해 가지고 있는 주관적 인식의 유형을 파악하고 이를 통해 향후 비대면 수업방식의 개발과 개선에 있어 참고할 점을 제안하고자 하였다. 30명의 P 표본과 34개의 Q 표본을 이용하여 분석한 결과 5개의 유형이 발견되었다. 첫째, 학습의 효율성 중시형, 둘째, 수업의 참여와 소통 중시형, 셋째, 비대면 수업의 적극적 수용과 활용형, 넷째, 원격 시스템과 장비 작동 오류로 인한 불만형, 다섯째, 상황에 따른 수동적 대응형이다. 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 살펴보았을 때 각 유형의 특성을 고려한 효과적인 비대면 수업을 위한 교육 방법의 개발이 필요할 것으로 보이며, 비대면 수업, 특히 녹화 강의가 갖는 학습의 효율성 측면에서의 장점은 분명한 것으로 보인다. 따라서 대면 수업이 대학에서 전면적으로 이루어지더라도 수업에서 동영상 녹화 강의를 보완적으로 제공하는 것이 학생들의 학습에 큰 도움이 될 것으로 여겨진다.
