Augmented reality offers a great potential in teaching and learning through enhancing situated cognition and building indirect experience. However, existing systematic reviews are limited to studies conducted outside of Korea and fail to reflect the Korean trends. This study attempts to understand the augmented reality trends of educational research in Korea through a systematic review. The content types are also reviewed regarding situated learning. The results show that Korean studies tend to target preK-12 while many global research focus on K-16. In addition to Humanities & Arts and Science, Korean studies explored in special education. Concerning educational effects, numerous Korean studies investigated on individual learning and less focused on collaborative or situated learning. Moreover, many Korean studies used object-controlling contents. Lastly, challenges and suggestions for future research are addressed.

This study intended to examine the nature of image which uses the network as the medium in the context of 'post-internet art' and categorize and analyze the cases of applications within art images. In the post-internet art which embraces the background of Web 2.0 and extended digital and network environment, image is transformed and re-mediated into various formats beyond fixed forms. Hito Steyerl defined the image, copied, downloaded, and reedited digitally in low quality as 'poor image.' Young artists, the digital native generation, capture and re-contextualize the changed network environment and depict it in various images. In this context, the application of image in post-internet art can be categorized and analyzed into the 'Image Collected as Material' produced by collecting and recomposing images found in social media, operating system, and website, 'Image Processed through Work' which is newly processed and re-contextualized by using editing programs, and 'Combined Digital-Reality Image' which represents the section of the digital society as the film and image that combine virtuality and reality.

Immersive contents is content that provides a realistic experience by maximizing the user's five senses, and includes virtual reality, augmented reality, and mixed reality. In order to provide a sense of reality to users in immersive content, it is necessary to provide realistic visual images, hearing, and touch. However, due to the rapid change in the environment for developing immersive content, experts in training human resources are having difficulties in designing the curriculum. In this study, we propose a series of educational courses that use drones to acquire and process real-world measurement data and apply the derived data to VR, AR, and MR to help experts in training immersive content develop talent. The design of training process composes through demand survey and analysis of companies, students, and local communities. This study can be a useful resource for education experts who want to train immersive contents manpower.

Purpose: Live commerce is a new type of electronic commerce in combination with live streaming services. It is expected to increase virtual presence in the context of online shopping by overcoming a lack of social interactions between sellers and buyers which have been raised as a limitation in electronic commerce. Drawing on the studies of communication media, this study examines how live commerce contributes to the increase of virtual presence which consists of telepresence and social presence. Telepresence refers to a buyer's perception that he or she is present at the physical shopping mall during live shopping streaming whereas social presence refers to a buyer's perception of social interaction with a seller which is human warm, social, sensitive, and personal. In this study, we verify key determinants of virtual presence and its consequences. More specifically, this study proposes virtual presence contributes to the increase of buyers' trust in products and further purchase intentions. Furthermore, we verify influential factors of virtual presence from the technical and influencer perspectives of live commerce. Design/methodology/approach: To test the proposed hypotheses, the partial least squares (PLS) analysis is conducted with a total of 250 data collected on users with experience in the TaoBao live streaming shopping platform. Findings: The results show that first, telepresence and social presence are increased by visibility, media richness and attractiveness in the context of live shopping streaming. Second, buyers' trust in product trust and purchase intentions are positively influenced by telepresence and social presence. Finally, buyers' trust in product has a direct, positve effect on their purchase intentions. Overall, the findings offer new insights into the studies of electronic commerce by introducting the concepts of virtual presence and media richness from the literature of communication media in the field of live commerce.

This study analyzed a group interview with six earth science teachers and eight middle school students to find out the evaluations and criteria they use to evaluate VR/AR contents (two virtual reality content and two augmented reality contents) in middle school science digital textbook. The study found the VR/AR contents were evaluated on four criteria as follows: VR/AR media characteristics; technical operation; user interface; and teaching-learning design. The evaluations can be summarized by each criterion. First, regarding VR/AR media characteristics, interesting features of VR/AR contents were considered relatively advantageous compared to other media like videos. However, its shortage of visual presence and inconvenience of using markers were mentioned as shortcomings. Second, in the technical operation criteria, teachers and students found the following conditions as technically challenging: failing to properly operate on a particular OS; huge volumes of contents in the application; and frequent freezing when using the application. Third, poor intuitiveness and lack of flexibility were found as negative aspects in user interface. Fourth, regarding teaching-learning design, the teachers evaluated whether the VR/AR contents delivered scientifically accurate information; whether they incorporated class goals set by teachers; and whether they can help students' inquiry. It turned out teachers gave negative feedbacks on VR/AR contents. The students evaluated VR/AR contents by assessing whether they help them with learning science but concluded they did not regard them necessary in science learning at school. Based on the findings, this study discusses which development direction VR/AR contents should take to be useful in teaching and learning science.

Comics uses words to convey its content and meaning, while the comic image conveys the content as a narrative function to represent how language is combined with the text. This paper makes a comparison and analysis of the comics of Japan and South Korea, in terms of words and image expression, narrative techniques, and the way of communication, to study the characteristics of image narrative. The comic image of Jing ke is the other as a flow of narrative and getting rid of the current screen, to resonate with the readers. Go U-yeong's comics and Sumeragi Natsuki's set up a virtual narrative time and space through the line, surface, space and shade, to realize the reproduction of unhistorical facts and the significance of narrative with the artist's imagination. Sumeragi Natsuki's comics uses historical facts to represent exquisite narrative like still-life paintings. She focuses on the description of the objective facts of history, to seek the sensitive comic image beyond reality. The image narration of Go U-yeong's comics is a clash between his historical narrative among the subjective romantic image and the readers' awareness narrative flow that they insist inside. Therefore, he tries to keep balance. The instant image in his comics is not a reproduction of the historical real moment, but a reproduction image of the reality reconstructed by his own pursuit of narrative.

With the rapid development of current internet, digital age make human beings intangible. Haptic sense was recognized less important than visual sense and auditory sense, but it plays an important role in determining the quality of products. The goals of this study are embodying haptics using Visual and Auditory preception and designing Visual-Auditory Haptic interface, in the case of actual touching is required but impossible. This study was carried out 3 steps. Firstly, developing the concept of Visual-Auditory Haptic Interface(VAHI) was carried out to make it certain the direction of this study. To get common factors of VAHI, this study researched physical-mechanism of visual, auditory, and haptics senses, and psychological-mechanism. Secondly, identifying factors of V/A haptic sense was analysed by web-evaluation test, to be categorized 11 Emotional Haptic Factors(EHF) and some Design Haptic Factors(DHF). The relation of EHF and DHF was analysed and summarized to VAHI design check sheet. Finally, Applying DHF to VAHI by EHF according to VAHI design check sheet was validated by web-evaluation test, to be resulted 13% increase in reliability and the same in usability. Conclusively, the possibility of embodying haptics using Visual and Auditory preception was resulted to be valid. And this concept can be applied to an interface, such a internet shopping mall and virtual reality, which requires actual touching to perceive haptic information, but it is impossible.
