In this study, the user experience was analyzed from the learner's point of view, focusing on the metaverse platform 'Spatial'. SUS(System Usability Scale) was used to evaluate the usability of the metaverse platform 'Spatial' in a college class, and the Magnitude estimation technique was used to evaluate the immersion and satisfaction with the class. In addition, a questionnaire survey was used to collect user experience opinions on the use of 'Spatial' as a teaching tool. Looking at the usability evaluation results of the 'Spatial' system, the students evaluated the usability, immersion, and satisfaction quite positively. Looking at the user experience of metaverse platform 'Spatial', it was found that students highly valued Metaverse as an educational tool that can provide a place for many people to gather and communicate even in a non-face-to-face space. Compared to other online platforms, metaverse has advantages in ease of use, interaction, immersion, and interest. In particular, in addition to keyboard, touch, and display, interaction using the five senses such as voice, motion, and gaze was recognized as a great advantage. On the other hand, it was found that high openness, freedom, and interest factors can both promote learning and inhibit learning. Nevertheless, it is judged that the metaverse platform 'Spatial' can be effectively applied in college classes because it enables various interactions between instructor and learner or between learner and learner.

In this paper, we propose the positive effects of Virtual Reality(VR) sports classes and the foundation for VR sports to become the basis of lifelong sports education through the application of physical education classes in sports virtual reality programs are to be provided. For this purpose, the effect of VR sports experience on sports satisfaction, sports immersion, and sports attitude factors was investigated for 281 elementary school students in Busan. Results It was found that VR sports experience had a significant effect on sports satisfaction, sports satisfaction had a significant effect on sports immersion and sports attitude, and sports immersion had a significant effect on sports attitude. The great advantage of sports virtual reality is that sports activities for items that are difficult to deal with in physical education classes and unpopular items will be easily performed. In addition, by using a program that links physical education classes with English and mathematics, physical education will be recognized as a convergence subject by elementary school students, and at the same time, it will become an integrated subject that can acquire fun elements and learning elements at the same time through play or games.

The purpose of this study was to identify the degree of self-leadership, academic self-efficacy, and learning flow of nursing college students to took both online and offline lectures, and to identify the factors that influence learning flow. Data were collected by using questionnaires from 152 students who were in 2nd year of the nursing college in G city, from September 7 to September 29, 2020. Data were analyzed by t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, and stepwise multiple regression using SPSS WIN 25.0 program. As a result of the study, Learning flow according to general characteristics showed significant differences in perceived health status, interpersonal relationship, major satisfaction, and grades. Statistically, learning flow showed a significantly positive correlation with self-leadership and academic self-efficacy. Influencing factors on learning flow were academic self-efficacy(β=.44, p<.001), self-leadership(β=.35, p<.001), and major satisfaction(β=-.14, p=.031) accounting for 57% of the total change. Based on this study, strategies to enhance academic self-efficacy and self-leadership are required to improve the learning flow of nursing students.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the interaction factors(learning motivation, concrete feedback, learner's control) and affordance factors (aesthetics, playfulness, stability) that influence flow in e - learning. This study collected 236 survey data from e-learning users. The data was analyzed the statistical relationships among the variables using the SPSS21 and AMOS21. The measurement model was reliable and valid, and the structual model was good. The result shows that interaction factors (concrete feedback, learner's control) and affordance factor (playfulness) influence on flow. Flow has a significant effect on satisfaction. Especially the effect of playfulness on flow is meaningful. Playfulness is one of the most important factors leading to the flow state of humans. The contribution of this study is to find the factors influencing flow in the interaction between learners and computer in e-learning. It can be used to provide an entertainment experience that can enhance the satisfaction of consumers in the Internet environment by finding the antecedents that affect the flow in computer - human interaction.

Recently, there is a growing interest in learning to use games as a teaching method for digital native learners. In this study, we conducted a path analysis between bodily-kinesthetic intelligence, linguistic intelligence, flow, learning outcomes(academic achievement, persistence intention) in motion-capture game-based learning(the used game developed for elementary school history class). As a result, bodily-kinesthetic intelligence directly influenced flow and indirectly influenced learning outcomes. Linguistic intelligence did not have direct influence on flow and indirect effects on learning outcomes. Through this result, we expected that the motion-capture game-based learning facilitate learning motivation and performance of learners for higher bodily-kinesthetic intelligence.

The purpose of this research is to investigate how an elementary English class is presented in terms of communicative properties using COLT and TALOS because previous studies mainly used COLT. A lack of TALOS has shown on the previous studies. Also, this study takes a close look into whether the English class is communicative or not communicative since previous studies criticized in that elementary English classes are not communicative. For the purposes of this research, COLT part B and TALOS low-inference were used to analyze one elementary English class which had won the grand prize at English class contest. The result of this study revealed that the class is communicative in terms of high quantity and quality of students utterances, high ratio of students' discourse initiation, students' unpredictable information giving utterances and extension of utterances. Findings from this study revealed the good elementary English class characteristics of this class: students' participation, focus on affective atmosphere, students-directed activities, and unconscious internalization of target expressions through repetition.

One often thinks that those doing any activity on the Internet are likely to be addicted to it so that they tend to rather restrain the educational use of what the Internet can provide. However, the online edu-games deserve a good learning material which can not only provoke learners' interest but also draw out a smoother interaction between teachers and learners. Even the preliminary study on immersion verified that the Internet could work positively for the learners. Considering that online edu-games can be a useful tool for individual learning, more studies on immersion should be conducted focusing on the individualization in the future. This paper shows the differences among the components of learning immersion depending on the different individual cognitive styles in the online edu-games.
