The purpose of this study is to develop online synchronous discussion tool based on De Bono's six thinking hats and to investigate availability and improvements of the tool. Analysis of previous studies about synchronous online discussion and six thinking hats and development of design strategies from 3C model, communication, coordination, cooperation, were done. Six thinking hats online synchronous discussion tool was developed and applied four times for 5 weeks in the 'fundamentals of computer science' course of college students majored in computer science. Qualitative data from open-ended survey and reflection paper of students, and field note of participant researchers were analyzed. As a result, six thinking hats online synchronous discussion tool facilitated student's interaction and communication in the aspect of communication, coordination, and cooperation of 3C model. However, some improvements are needed to overcome the limits of text-based online communication and to use six thinking hats online synchronous discussion tool as a tool to promote structured interaction and communication.

In this study, the multiplicity of synchronous online class discussion activity is explored at conceptual level. From the cultural-historical activity theory (CHAT), each utterance may be considered as a product of the activity system. Alderfer's ERG theory is employed as another theoretical framework for the study. Based on the subject's existence, relationship, growth needs, their class discussion activities constitute four different dimensions: physical/biological, cultural/institutional, social/relational, and cooperative knowledge construction. It is inherent in individual activities and has a different arrangement according to their interests and situations, and at the same time acts as a factor of cooperation and competition among the participants. Through this, collective discussion activities represent complex and dynamic development patterns.

In this paper, we investigate the effects of group composition according to the personality type of learner on the content of discussion in web-based synchronous online discussion. The experiment for this study was conducted with high school students. First, we conducted the MBTI(Myers Briggs Type Indicator) test and based upon the result, we classified learners into 3 groups; introverts group, extroverts group, and introverts/extroverts mixed group. After the online discussion, the content of discussion were analyzed by the units of meaning, based on the four dimensions which were proposed in the 'content analysis model' by Henri(l992). Among four dimensions, 'social' and 'interactive' dimension belonged to category of inter-dependence, and 'cognitive' and 'metacognitive' dimension belonged to category of subject-relevance. The introverts/extroverts mixed group, which was heterogeneously composed, had the most positive effects on the total numbers of the units of meaning, the inter-dependence, and the subject-relevance of the contents of discussion.

인터넷 게시판이나 트위터 같은 온라인 매체는 쉬운 접근성과 실시간 특성으로 어떤 사건에 대한 사용자들의 반응이 즉각적으로 나타난다. 또한, 실시간으로 엄청난 양의 데이터가 생성되고 있어 이 데이터를 잘 분석한다면 실제 사회에서 나타나는 다양한 현상들에 대해 파악할 수 있다. 최근 주식 시장에서도 이러한 온라인 데이터들을 분석하여 주가 변동이나 주식 시장 상황을 이해하려는 연구가 시도되고 있다. 이 논문에서는 주식 토론방의 게시물과 주가 사이에 어떤 상관관계가 있는지를 분석하고, 이를 이용한 주식 투자 종목 추천 시스템을 제안하고자 한다. 먼저 주가와 주식 토론방 게시물들 사이의 상관관계를 분석하기 위해서 KOSPI200에 속한 회사 중 55개의 회사를 대상으로 주가와 주식 토론방 게시물을 분석하였다. 2008년부터 2013년까지 6년 동안 각 회사의 주가와 게시물의 상관관계를 분석한 결과 개별 주가와 게시물 수 사이에는 특별한 상관관계가 나타나지 않았다. 하지만 주가와 게시물 수의 상관관계가 높을수록 주식 수익률이 높은 경향을 보였다. 이 논문에서는 주가와 게시물 수의 상관관계 정보를 이용한 투자 종목 추천 알고리즘을 제안하였고, 모의투자 실험을 통해 제안 방법의 효율성을 보였다. 2008년 1월부터 2013년 12월까지의 주가와 주식 토론방 데이터를 이용한 모의투자 실험에서 제안 방법으로 구성한 포트폴리오의 1개월 평균 수익률은 약 1.82%로, 주식 네트워크 특성을 이용한 기존 방법보다 약 0.64% 높은 수익률을 보였다. 또한, 마코위츠의 효율적 포트폴리오와 KOSPI200 수익률보다 각각 약 0.85%와 1.48% 높게 나타났다.

With the introduction of Internet-based education such as online learning and virtual campuses. there are increased interests and demands for electronically delivering educational contents in comparison to the traditional educational methods. Our preilminary study showed that approximately $50\%$ of virtual groups formed online for the scope of collaborative learning encountered harriers that prevented them from forming an effective learning team and making satisfactory progress toward reaching the learning objectives. In this study, we asked the undergraduate students. who were the members of the online learning team, to work on the given discussion topics through the use of emails and threaded discussion boards. Then. we investigated the roles played by two electronic communication medium during the virtual discussion with respect to the learning outcome. We also studied how information was shared amongst the virtual learning team members. The results of our study showed that the email based online learning had the advantage of individualized and friendly information transfer. However. it also caused certain difficulty in exchanging ideas due to the one-sided nature of the email-based communication. On the other hand, the threaded discussion board provided easier information sharing and broadcasting. which enabled active participation by the virtual team members. However. It also had the disadvantage of difficulty in accurate information conveyance and duplication of the posted information. In summary, our study results showed that there was a high correlation between the characteristics of the electronic communication medium and the decision that the online learners made regarding which medium to use. There was a high correlation between the type of the electronic communication medium and the online learners' experiences in using these media.

In the database design course, the team project is a very important process to develop students' database design competencies. In order to carry out team projects smoothly, active interaction between students and the professor as well as collaboration among team members are very important. However, a full uncontacted class was suddenly decides in the first semester of 2020, it was questionable whether it would be possible to effectively manage this course, where team projects to construct database take up a big portion. However team projects were able to proceed without major problems through interaction using real-time video media such as zoom, and discussions, quizzes, and Q&A supported by the online education support system (LMS), and online presentations, mutual evaluations, and so on. This paper shares the experience of managing engineering team projects in uncontacted classes and based on three surveys introduces desirable improving directions of this instruction and some suggestions to improve uncontacted classes overall.

The crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant changes in education systems worldwide, including in Korea. Due to COVID-19's social distancing policies, the education system was suddenly switched to distance learning, resulting in many problems in primary schools without preparation. The purpose of this study was to investigate a teacher's awareness of science education techniques, responses to issues in science classes, including inquiry activities, advantages and disadvantages, and roles after experiencing distance learning. Survey and focus interviews were conducted for primary school teachers who had previously participated in distance learning, such as online content classes and real-time interactive classes. The study findings showed three conclusions: 1) Primary school teachers conducted one-way and interactive lectures in online classes. It is vital to improve a teacher's digital literacy to improve other teaching methods such as investigation and discussion in online classes. 2) Primary school teachers acknowledged the challenges of field feedback, inquiry item preparations, and safety in inquiry activities of science classes, by providing individual experimental packages and videos and using online discussion and feedback among teacher - student and student - student interactions. 3) Primary school teachers recognized that various types of classes using IT devices and individualized learning were possible as advantages of distance learning. As for disadvantages, it was acknowledged that inquiry activities, cooperative learning, immediate feedback, and interaction among students were challenging. Furthermore, learning gaps were wider in distance learning.

The purpose of this study was to verify whether the Interactive Cinematherapy Course developed based on discussion is still effective for emotional intelligence and empathic ability, even in a college lecture environment where courses are given online due to COVID-19. The subjects were enrolled in the Interactive Cinematherapy Course and experienced either an online (N=139) or offline (N=212) course before and after COVID-19. To the offline course, students were given structural questions and conducted discussions, whereas the online course students were given feedback via e-mail to substitute discussion. The results were as follows. Compared to the offline courses, students in both online/offline courses commonly showed an increase in "Other's emotion appraisal", "Cognitive Empathy", "Perspective taking", "Fantasy", and "Emphatic Concern". The online course students showed an increase in the "Use of emotion", while offline course students showed an increase in "Self emotion appraisal". This shows that online and offline courses do not have a significant difference in effects. In qualitative research, the lecturer's communication ability and concern helped enhance the effectiveness of the Interactive Cinematherapy Course given online. This implies that communication between the lecturer and students and role of the lecturer are more important than the online environment.
