While Internet-based distance learning has proliferated, its educational effectiveness remains controversial. As such, investigation into the problems of Internet-based distance learning is important and fundamental for an assessment of its educational effectiveness. In this study, problems of Internet-based distance learning are grouped into four categories, environmental problems, student problems, course design problems and operational problems. Based on survey data from 606 distance learning participants, perceptional and relative seriousness of problems are analysed. The results indicate that perceptional seriousness of all the problems is not statistically important. However, the findings indicate that the relative seriousness of self willingness among student problems and cheating within operational problems is most remarkable. In contrast, the relative seriousness of traditionally recognized problems such as H/W availability and network speed among environmental problems is least remarkable. An analysis of demographic differences such as sex, employment and age in terms of seriousness of problem is also performed. The results reveal the existence of statistically significant differences according to sex, employment, and age difference with regard to seriousness of problems.

The subjects were 131 senior nursing students from one college located in Seoul. The data analyzed by using SPSS-WIN 18.0 program. Career satisfaction showed a significant positive correlation with recognition of career related to major(r=.690, p<.001), learning preference related to major(r=.666, p<.001), participation of activities related to major(r=.537, p<.001), major performance(r=.231, p=.008), concentration of major(r=.508, p<.001), intrinsic motivation(r=.357, p<.001), problem solving ability(r=.452, p<.001), satisfaction of laboratorial practice(r=.476, p<.001) and satisfaction of clinical practice(r=.410, p<.001). In addition, recognition of career, learning preference, participation of activities, concentration of major, and satisfaction of laboratorial practice were significant predictors to explain career satisfaction(63%). It is necessary to develop an effective career guidance program to improve career satisfaction considering these findings.

With the development of information and communications technologies, there have been increasing cases of services and use free educational materials in educational field through the Web. However, as most of the materials are provided in a finished form via the Web services, teachers are in a situation where they have difficulty in using the materials through development or revision according to their educational goals. In this background, this study aimed to develop requirements and functions necessary for the educational contents development tools by having teachers as actual users develop contents using existing tools of the educational contents development. As a result, this study developed 10 requirements, including intuitive interface environment, support for various multimedia materials, and diversification of output versions etc. Also, the study suggested 13 functions, including links with external resources, automatic format conversion function, usage and editing of existing documents, writing learner's answers, and hiding function etc.

The vicious cycle of over-education has been made. That is, higher education enrollment rate is high, but university graduate employment rate is low. To eliminate this cycle and relieve youth unemployment and young people to enter the labor market early, dual education and training system is needed. This dual system can support working and learning in parallel. So, worker can get the opportunity pre-employment and post-learning and improve his/her job skills. Recent MOOC (Massive Open On-line Course), a new form of online education system, has emerged. MOOC combines education, entertainment and social networking, and emphasize the interaction between faculty and student and between students. The educational contents of MOOC are available free of charge. Using newly changed online education environments we can effectively provide knowledge and skills. In technology and engineering education hands-on training is necessary. In order to support work based learning dual system for worker to work and learn in parallel, we should build the multi-learning system to combine the online education and campus hands-on practice.
