21C 지식 기반 정보사회는 급속한 정보통신 기술의 발달에 따라 다양한 분야에서 정보통신 분야의 신기술을 이용하며 더불어 발전한다. 교육 분야에서도 멀티미디어와 같은 정보통신 기술의 사용이 급증하고 있다. 하지만 최신의 정보통신 기술을 교육현장에 적용하는 사례는 드물다. 이에 교육현장에 정보통신 기술을 적용 시 동영상 또는 플래시 기반의 단순한 형태의 교육 콘텐츠의 사용을 벗어나 새로운 고품질의 콘텐츠가 요구되고 있다. 이에 대한 대안의 하나로 실재감과 몰입감을 촉진함으로써, 학습 효과를 향상시킬 수 있는 가상현실 기반 체험형 콘텐츠 시스템의 개발이 시도되고 있다. 본고에서는 가상현실 기반 체험형 콘텐츠 기술의 개발 방향을 모색하기 위하여 국내외 가상현실 기반 체험형 콘텐츠 기술동향, 시스템 사례, 교육적 효과에 대하여 살펴보고자 한다.

메인프레임 기반 컴퓨팅에서 PC 기반 컴퓨팅에 이어 제3세대 컴퓨터 환경인 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경으로의 진화는 현실에 컴퓨터를 탑재하여 언제 어디서나 모든 곳에 존재하는 네트워크 환경을 제공하고 있고, 이러한 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅과 이를 연동한 네트워크 패러다임은 미래교육 시스템이 나가야 할 새로운 방향을 제시한다. 양방향 의사소통을 기본으로 하는 지식기반사회의 교육패러다임의 변화는 컴퓨터의 역할 패러다임의 변화와 그 맥을 함께 하고 있으며, 이러닝 분야에서도 기존의 단순하고 일방향적인 교육 콘텐츠에서 벗어나 새로운 기술에 기반한 고품질의 양방향적 콘텐츠를 요구하고 있다. 이에 대한 하나의 대안으로 학습자에게 실재감과 몰입감을 촉진하고 마커의 직접적인 조작활동을 통해 양방향 상호작용을 극대화 할 수 있는 혼합현실(mixed reality) 기반 이러닝 시스템의 개발이 시도되고 있다. 본 고에서는 이러한 혼합현실기반 이러닝 기술의 동향에 대해 살펴보고자 한다.

As virtual assistants rapidly diffused into the market, the voice shopping market is expected to expand. The purpose of this study is to identify the factors that determine the consumers' intention to adopt voice shopping by using the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology(UTAUT). In this study, we set variables that influence the intention to adoption of voice shopping with performance expectation and effort expectations as the variables of UTAUT and playfulness expectations as an extended variable. In addition, we also include four voice secretary attributes such as response accuracy, compatibility, social presence, and safety in our research model to investigate the source of motivation of voice shopping adoption. The result of this analysis shows that variables such as performance expectation, effort expectation, and amusement expectation have a positive effect on the intention to adoption of voice shopping. With respect to the four voice shopping attributes, compatibility had a positive effect on performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and playfulness expectancy. Social presence has a positive effect on playfulness expectancy. Safety has a positive effect on effort expectancy and playfulness expectancy. On the other hand, response accuracy is not significant for performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and playfulness expectancy. This study reveals the determinants of intention to adopt the new purchasing method called voice shopping, and suggests the important factors for the innovation of commerce business.

COVID-19 provided visitors with new online concerts that gradually increased in many ways. The disadvantage of current online concerts is that cannot make full use of the interaction with others. We hope to provide online concert audiences with the same experience as offline. This study was conducted under the condition that the audience watched online concerts and movies individually or group. Experimental results confirm that watching online concerts collectively will increase the sense of immersion. It can be used as a design guide for the virtual public viewing environment in the future.

In 2019, COVID-19 changed many people's lives. Among them, metaverse supports non-face-to-face services through various methods, replacing daily tasks. This phenomenon was created and formed like a culture due to the prolonged COVID-19. In this paper, the fun elements used in the existing game were organized to find out the fun factors of the metaverse, and the items and contents were reclassified according to the metaverse with five experts. Classification was classified using reproducibility, sensory fun [graphic, auditory, text, manipulation, empathy, play, perspective], challenging fun [absorbedness, challenging, discovery, thrill, reward, problem-solving], imaginative fun [new story, love, freedom, agency, expectation, change], social fun[rules, competition, social behavior, status, cooperation, participation, exchange, belonging, currency transaction], interactive fun[decision making, communication sharing, hardware, empathy, nurturing, autonomy], realistic fun[sense of unity in reality, easy of learning, adaptation, intellectual problems solving, pattern recognition, sense of reality, community], and creative fun[application, creation, customizing, virtual world].

Due to the social distancing in the Corona era, people are looking for an alternative online. As 'eXtended Reality' including various technologies, AR, VR and so on, is also on the rise, and the 'MZ' generation is growing to a new consumer group, the Meta-Verse is again in the spotlight. However, existing studies related to the Meta-Verse were mostly listing fragments of definition and classification or focused on eXtended Reality technologies and a subordinate concept. Hence, this study wold like to conduct an empirical analysis to verify influences of Metaverse's characteristic factors over word-of-mouth intention through flow and satisfaction.

In this study, we investigate the effect of social presence and affection on usage and participation in the UCC service. We have conducted a face-to-face survey along with an e-mail survey and obtained a total of 329 responses. The findings show that social presence has a significant impact on pleasure and arousal. Social presence and pleasure in turn show a positive impact on using the UCC service. However, arousal has no significant influence on the UCC service usage. Participation in the UCC service appears to be a different behavior than the UCC usage. Pleasure shows a negative effect on the UCC service participation, while arousal very strongly and positively affects the UCC service participation. The significance of this study can be found in that it empirically demonstrates the importance of social presence and affection in promoting the UCC service usage.

Metaverse is a combination of Meta and Universe, which refers to a world in which users or avatars engage in social, economic, and cultural activities. This study attempted to compare the four worldviews proposed by the Acceleration Studies Foundation (ASF) based on the five evaluation factors of SPICE, which are factors for promoting customer experience. 227 samples were used in the analysis, and as a result, seamlessness was the highest in augmented reality, interoperability in lifelogging, presence in the mirror world, and concurrence in virtual reality. This study is meaningful in that it presents a model design plan according to the classification of the metaverse platform and the worldview, and presents detailed strategic directions to existing metaverse platform operators or new entrants.

Mobile phone users have diversified human factors: their channel orientations are different, and the degrees of unwillingness to communicate vary. We examined the effect of human factors on the use of mobile phone, such as the diversity of mobile phone use, the appropriateness of mobile phone, and the aversion to mobile phone as well as the interpersonal communication network through mobile phone. For our sample we surveyed college students and their family members who are older than 400. We found that the more social presence a mobile phone user gets through the mobile phone, and the more familiar to the mobile phone he/she is, (1) the more diversified is the use of mobile phone service, (2) the higher is the level of acceptance of the mobile phone as an interpersonal communication media, and (3) the lower is the level of aversion to the mobile phone. In contrast, those who have some level of aversion to the face-to-face communication, seem to form very limited interpersonal communication network through mobile phone. Their use of mobile phone is also very limited.
