The purpose of this study is to verify the effects of partial-cyber and full-cyber lectures and explore directions for improvement. This study compared the mean scores of course evaluation for traditional face-to-face lectures, partial-cyber lectures of blended instruction, and full-cyber lectures. Also, this study interviewed instructors of full-cyber lectures to investigate the ways to enhance the lecture quality. The findings suggest that the course evaluation scores for full-cyber university were consistently lower than those for other types of lectures for four semesters between the years of 2011 and 2012. Results also showed that mean scores of partial-cyber lectures were the same as those of face-to-face lectures. After all, class satisfaction in full-cyber courses that learning occurs in cyber space was the lowest. Instructors who taught full-cyber lectures proposed that enrollment should not be within 60 students and professional assistance should be provided for lectures exceeding 60 students. Finally, they suggested content updates through a collaborative system with professionals, instructors' efforts to enhance interaction in both online and offline contexts, and learning quantity rationalization.

사이버 교육 시스템 기반을 구축하기 위한 일련의 연구의 한 부분으로써, 새로이 개발된 컴퓨터 기술들이 현 가상 교육 시스템과 어떻게 융합되어 더 나은 사이버 교육 시스템을 구축할 것인가를 제시한다. 많은 IT 교육이 사이버를 통하여 이루어지고 있으나, 이는 이론 교육과는 달리 컴퓨터를 이용한 실습이 필요한 경우가 많다. 한성대학교에서 실시한 가상 강좌의 운영 경험을 제시한다. 기존 강좌와 비교하여 전산 교육을 위한 가상 강좌의 문제점과 그 개선점을 제안하고자 한다.

현대 산업 구조가 고도 정보화 사회로 바뀌어 나아감에 따라 효율적인 교육방법에 대한 요구는 점점 커져가고 있으며, 이러한 현실에서 인터넷을 이용하여 수업을 진행하는 사이버강좌는 교육부분에 일대 혁신을 일으킬 수 있는 대안으로 여겨지고 있다. 전통적으로 강의실에서 강의를 진행하는 수업형태와 다르게 사이버 강좌는 시간과 공간의 제약을 받지 않으며, 반복학습이 용이하고, 음성 및 통영상 등의 멀티미디어 활용이 용이하여 강의실 수업 못지 않은 수업효과를 얻을 수 있게 되었다. 특히 급속한 사회 환경의 변화는 교수, 학습 파라다임의 변화를 일으키고 있다. 본 연구에서는 천안대학교 온$\cdot$오프라인강좌의 실태 및 현황을 살펴보고 수업의 질을 높이기 위한 개선방안을 고찰하여 본다.

For the wide spread of cyber education, it is important to understand the instructional characteristics of cyber education and its applications in the educational sites which help to cope with the practical needs and problems. This study was conducted to analyze the experience of cyber classes(working hours, tasks and evaluation, satisfaction level and instructional effectiveness, suggestions for cyber education) and use of instructional methodology (instructional activities, interaction frequencies, cooperative learning activities, instructional activities toward knowledge building). The data was collected from pre-service teachers(403) and in-service teachers(318) in June 2004. The results were that pre-service and in-service teachers all consider the satisfaction level and academic achievement level of cyber classes lower than that of FTF classes. Particularly the boring presentation of instructional materials and the inadequate instructional strategies for cyber classes were the biggest complains, and lack of interaction among peer groups and with instructors, lack of learning opportunity for cyber instructional strategies, limited group activities, lack of interaction with experts were followed. Limited types of evaluation also showed that cyber classes focus on results more than the process of students' academic achievement.

MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) is an online course aimed at limited participation and open access via the web. There is even the prospect that MOOC may break down the existing university system and open a new horizon of education. However, MOOC is going differently from the first prospect that it would threat the existing higher education institutions. So this study wishes to provide a starting point of discussion that we can produce and utilize MOOC to fit our situation of higher education by revealing the inherent problems of MOOC. MOOC is a basically online education, so that it cannot help inheriting the essential weakness of the existing one: the interaction, supervision and evaluation. The newly added concept 'massive' raises the problem of class size which is the most sensitive part in the field of education. The concept 'open' reverses a customized education because MOOC is a kind of video clips of a lecture for unspecific massive learners. As a conclusion, we predicts that MOOC will be positioned as a higher education service for very prominent learners in self-led learning ability and people who cannot access even traditional online higher education institutions. Also MOOC is highly likely to be used as a means of Flipped Learning in universities. Therefore, considering these points in the future, we need to develop MOOC to suit these targets.

RThe main object of this study is to stipulate the relation between e-learning characteristics and e-learner's scholastic performance through the integrated study model of perspective of educational technology and information technology. Using e-learning system quality, e-learning contents characteristics and interaction as independent variable, e-learner's scholastic performance as dependent variable and learning motivation as mediator, this study has examined the relationship among these variables. Two hundreds and twelve undergraduates in cyber university participated in the survey and filled out questionnaires related to this study. The main results are as followed. First, content's quality, technical quality and the support of school affairs have a significant effect on the e-learner's scholastic performance. Second, Learning motivation plays a partial mediating role in the relationship between e-learning characteristics and e-learner's scholastic performance. The meaningful implication of this study is that to improve e-learner's scholastic performance, we have to offer e-learners more customized various learning plans, learning contents and interaction between e-learners and e-learning systems.
