Abstract

The purpose of the study is to analyze the impact of blended learning's external classroom formats and internal teaching strategies, which has been implemented in university classes due to COVID-19, on students' academic achievement and learners' perceptions, as well as to provide insights into the desirable direction of online education. The study was conducted during the 1st semester of 2022 at G University, targeting students taking Calculus I. The experimental group consisted of 117 students, while the control group consisted of 707 students. Blended learning, involving a combination of face-to-face classes, online classes, and mixed teaching methods, was implemented, and academic achievement and learner perceptions were assessed. The research findings indicate that compared to solely online classes, adopting a blended learning approach with online classes before the midterm and face-to-face classes afterwards resulted in a decline in academic achievement. The unprepared and simplistic external format of blended learning was found to be ineffective, however, a blended learning model consisting solely of online classes, incorporating a mix of asynchronous and synchronous instruction, demonstrated positive learner perceptions. Additionally, utilizing technology in the teaching strategies yielded positive outcome.

본 연구의 목적은 COVID-19 팬데믹으로 인해 대학 수업에서 시행하게 된 블렌디드러닝의 외적 수업형태가 학생들의 학업 성취도에 미친 영향, 그리고 블렌디드러닝의 내적 수업전략이 학습자의 인식에 미친 영향은 어떠한지를 분석하여 온라인수업의 바람직한 방향성을 제시하는 것이다. 본 연구는 2022년 1학기 G대학에서 미적분학I 수업을 수강하는 학생들을 대상으로 하여 실험반 117명과 비교반 707명에 대한 대면수업 및 온라인수업 그리고 교수 방법의 혼합을 통한 블렌디드러닝을 실시하고 학업성취도와 학습자 인식을 조사하였다. 연구결과로는 온라인수업만으로 한 학기를 진행했을 때보다 중간고사 이전에는 온라인수업을 진행하고, 이후에는 대면수업으로 운영하는 블랜디드 수업방식을 수행하였을 때 학업성취도가 하향되는 결과를 얻게 되었다. 미리 준비되지 않은 단순한 외적 수업형태의 블렌디드러닝은 비효과적이었으나 온라인수업으로만 이루어진 수업형태에서 동영상 및 실시간 수업의 혼합 모형은 긍정적인 학습자 인식을 보여주었다. 테크놀로지를 혼합하여 실시한 교수전략 또한 긍정적인 결과로 나타났다.
