Since Covid-19, many educational institutions no longer view online learning as an additional material, but use it as their main learning tool. In this study, we tried to summarize the definition of smart learning and examined how smart learning math classes affect academic achievement, mathematical interest, and attitudes. We manipulate groups that conducted smart learning and groups that conducted face-to-face learning, and compare academic performance, mathematical interest, and attitudes after six weeks of learning. As a result, we found that the smart learning group had a large values in all three factors compared to the face-to-face learning group. We also found moderating effect. Students with lower grades largely improved their academic achievement scores as the difference in attitude changes through smart learning compared to those with higher grades.

This study investigated a relationship among facilitating discourse, students' perceived challenge, and learning outcomes(persistent intention and learning achievement) in an online science gifted education program. Two hundreds and forty-two middle school students participated in the study. A survey questionnaire which was consisted of 6 items of facilitating discourse from teaching presence questionnaire(Shea, Swan, & Pickett, 2005) and 5 items of challenge from Student Perceptions of Classroom Quality(Gentry & Owen, 2004) was administered. First, the findings of this study showed that students' perceived facilitating discourse as a part of teaching presence was positively related to students' perceived challenge in an online course. Second, students' perceived facilitating discourse were positively related to persistent intention, but were negatively related to students' achievement. Third, students' perceived challenge was positively related to persistent intention and achievement. Finally, challenge mediated the relationship between students' perceived facilitating discourse and persistent intention, and the relationship between students' perceived facilitating discourse and students' achievement as well. This results suggested that online program should be designed to increase the levels of facilitating discourse.

The purpose of this study is aimed to analyze the changes in major commitment and satisfaction of the 1^st and 2^nd grades university students in health-related departments through the application of un-contact lecture during COVID-19 pandemic. Study subjects were a total of 181 students in the 1^st and 2^nd grades in health-related departments. They participated in the un-contact lectures for 15 weeks through COVID-19 pandemic and the lectures consisted of real-time online lectures and the lectures using video contents based on the guidelines of Ministry of Education. Assessment of major commitment was performed using the major commitment scale and the major satisfaction was performed using the major satisfaction scale. As the results, the statistically significant decrease of major commitment and satisfaction showed after the application of un-contact lectures. Based on these, the application of un-contact lectures acts the students to decrease major commitment and satisfaction. Therefore, in the application of un-contact lectures, appropriate consideration should be needed for the increase of major commitment and satisfaction of 1^st and 2^nd grades university students in health-related departments.

This study identifies the terms frequently used together with energy in online science news articles and topics of the news reports to find out how the term energy is used in everyday life and to draw implications for science curriculum and instruction about energy. A total of 2,171 online news articles in science category published by 11 major newspaper companies in Korea for one year from March 1, 2018 were selected by using energy as a search term. As a result of natural language processing, a total of 51,224 sentences consisting of 507,901 words were compiled for analysis. Using the R program, term frequency analysis, semantic network analysis, and structural topic modeling were performed. The results show that the terms with exceptionally high frequencies were technology, research, and development, which reflected the characteristics of news articles that report new findings. On the other hand, terms used more than once per two articles were industry-related terms (industry, product, system, production, market) and terms that were sufficiently expected as energy-related terms such as 'electricity' and 'environment.' Meanwhile, 'sun', 'heat', 'temperature', and 'power generation', which are frequently used in energy-related science classes, also appeared as terms belonging to the highest frequency. From a network analysis, two clusters were found including terms related to industry and technology and terms related to basic science and research. From the analysis of terms paired with energy, it was also found that terms related to the use of energy such as 'energy efficiency,' 'energy saving,' and 'energy consumption' were the most frequently used. Out of 16 topics found, four contexts of energy were drawn including 'high-tech industry,' 'industry,' 'basic science,' and 'environment and health.' The results suggest that the introduction of the concept of energy degradation as a starting point for energy classes can be effective. It also shows the need to introduce high-tech industries or the context of environment and health into energy learning.
