The purpose of this study is to discover if the use of computer technologies in computer-assisted language learning, in the aspect of vocabulary learning, is both effective and useful. The technique of using multimedia lessons, using the computer, offers a variety of language learning tasks in relation to the four basic language learning skills. Korean students have been accustomed to a cramming style of education, and they utilize rote memorization for learning vocabulary. This study consisted of surveys and experiments, using specific multimedia language learning courseware exercises on three different age groups. The study explores the issues and problems that followed, and how teachers could effectively apply or enhance their vocabulary teaching through computer-assisted multimedia which is suited for a variety of levels versus the classroom off-line vocabulary learning application which is suited to one level.

지금까지 컴퓨터의 교육적 활용은 보조적인 교수자료나 학습도구로서 인식되어 왔지만 디지털교과서(Digital Textbook)의 출현으로 컴퓨터와 학교 교육과정 및 수업이 하나로 통합되면서 컴퓨터의 교육적 역할이 학습보조수단에서 교수.학습활동의 주된 교재로써의 역할로 바뀌게 되었다. 국내에서는 2007년 3월, 교육과학기술부(MEST)에서 본격적인 디지털교과서 개발과 보급을 위한 준비 단계의 계획으로 '디지털교과서 상용화(常用化) 방안'을 발표하였다. 이에 따라 교육 분야에서는 급변하는 국가 사회적 요구를 교과서에 신속히 반영하고 체계적인 교수 학습 국가 DB를 구축하기 위한 "디지털교과서 개발" 사업을 추진하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 디지털교과서 정의와 기능을 제시하며, 국내외의 디지털교과서 개발사례를 살펴본다. 또한 마지막으로 디지털교과서 개발전략 및 발전방향을 제안하였다.

지능형 서비스 로봇은 인공지능 및 센서인터페이스 등의 다양한 기능과 IT기술의 접목으로 우리의 생활을 윤택하게 해줄 수 있는 인간 지향적인 성격으로 발전하고 있다. 또한 많은 분야에서 새로운 서비스 개발을 통해서 좀더 인간의 생활에 가까이 접근되어 지고 있다. 한편 국내 초등학교에서 초등교사는 학생 수의 과다로 능동적이기 보다는 수동적인 수업을 하고 있어서 학습 효율성이나 능률성이 떨어지고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 발전하고 있는 서비스 로봇 기술로 능동적인 수업형태와 자율적이고 창의적인 학습 및 교육서비스를 제공할 수 있는 교사도우미 로봇을 개발하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 로봇은 기존의 지능형 서비스 로봇과 ICT(Information & Communication Technology) 교육을 접목할 수 있는 로봇의 제반 환경의 구성과 더불어 교육 현장에 알맞도록 HRI 및 시나리오를 기반으로 개발되었고, 로봇의 주요기능은 교사지원, 학습보조, 수업지원 등으로 사전 설문조사를 통하여 필요성이 높은 기능을 중심으로 설정되었다. 개발된 초등학교 지원 로봇은 2006년 10월부터 대전지능로봇산업화센터에서 초등학교 학생을 대상으로 시범수업을 준비하고 있고, 2007년도 중반에는 초등학교에서 시범사업을 추진할 예정이다.

A robot's recognition and diagnosis of pronunciation and its speech are the most important interactions in RALL(Robot Assisted Language Learning). This study is to verify the effectiveness of robot TTS(Text to Sound) technology in assisting Korean English language learners to acquire a native-like accent by correcting the prosodic errors they commonly make. The child English language learners' F0 range and speaking rate in the 4th grade, a prosodic variable, will be measured and analyzed for any changes in accent. We compare whether robot with the currently available TTS technology appeared to be effective for the 4th graders and 1st graders who were not under the formal English learning with native speaker from the acoustic phonetic viewpoint. Two groups by repeating TTS of RALL responded to the speaking rate rather than F0 range.

As the COVID-19 situation continues, early childhood are unable to attend early childhood education institutions and are spending more time with their parents at home. Parents are faced with a situation where they have to spend a lot of time at home to teach their children for Korean word learning or play activities. This act as a lot of psychological burden and stress for parents. In order to relieve the psychological burden of parents, the design and implementation of early childhood learning assistant system that can support Korea word education and play activities using artificial intelligence blocks of block coding technique was proposed in this study. The usage of a proposed system can not only reduce the burden on parents for their children's learning, but also can be actively used in the field of early childhood education so many learning effects can be expected.

Although vocabulary is one of the most important aspects in learning English, it is not dealt with as extensively as the grammar and reading comprehension in the classes due to time limitation. Furthermore, it is also dealt with in only a limited way at most of the English learning web sites compared to the other aspects such as grammar and reading comprehension. In this study. a web-based learning system for English vocabulary which allows a student to study the vocabulary before or after the classes by herself in order to supplement the English classes provided at school. Especially, it allows the students to learn the vocabulary within the context of sentences. It also provides an efficient structure for a repeated study of vocabulary that is new or difficult to the student.

In this study, the effect of cooperative computer-assisted instruction upon students' conceptual under-standing,application ability, and learning motivation were investigated by a previous achievement level. The treatment and the control groups (2 classes) were selected from a middle school in Seoul, and taught about the motion of molecule for 5 class periods. Prior to the instructions, a learning motivation test was administered and used as covariate. The scores of a previous achievement test were also used as covariate. The scores of the mid-term science examination were used as blocking variable. After the instructions, the conceptions test, the application test, and the learning motivation test were administered. Two-way ANCOVA results revealed that there were no significant differences in the scores of the con-ceptions test and the application test. However, the scores of the treatment group were found to be significantly higher than those of the control group in the learning motivation test.

This study investigated the effects of computer-assisted instruction adapting to the level of students' conceptual understanding upon students' conceptual understanding, retention of conceptions, learning motivation, and perception about computer-assisted instruction in concept learning. 94 seventh grade students from a coed middle school in Seoul were randomly assigned to control, CAI, adaptive CAI groups, and were taught about 'motion of molecules' for 7 class periods. Two-way ANCOVA results revealed that the scores of a conception test and a learning motivation test for the adaptive CAI group were significantly higher than those for the control group. The scores of a retention test of conceptions for the adaptive CAI group were significantly higher than those for other two groups. There were no significant interactions between the instruction and the level of previous achievement in the scores of the conception test, the learning motivation test, and the retention test of conceptions. The perception about computer-assisted instruction for the students of the adaptive CAI group were more positive than those for the students of the CAI group.
