This study examined how different types of remote video lectures, which universities are using in earnest now due to the COVID-19 pandemic, impact the academic achievement of learners. Zoom-based remote video lectures were divided into two types-general lecture-centered and group task-oriented-and experimental and control groups were set up accordingly. An achievement test and a questionnaire were conducted to determine how academic achievement differed between these two approaches. The achievement test revealed no significant differences in achievement scores between the two groups. Meanwhile, the questionnaire regarding satisfaction with Zoom-based video lectures indicated that both groups were highly satisfied. Participants in the general lecture-centered type group cited the effect of learning, their instructors' class preparation and attitudes towards the class, and the promotion of participation in learning activities as the causes of their satisfaction, while participants in the task-oriented type group highlighted communication and sharing, the efficiency of group discussions, and the moderate difficulty level of group tasks as the reasons for their satisfaction with the video lectures. Remote video lectures in the untact era are becoming increasingly common, and educators will need to develop various Zoom-based teaching strategies to maximize their efficiency.

The purpose of this study is to verify the effectiveness of non-face-to-face lectures conducted at universities in Korea under the influence of COVID-19. So this study analyzed the satisfaction level of the students according to the type of class operation, such as face-to-face classes and remote video classes. To this end, this study compared the differences in class satisfaction by class type and class size for a total of 8,707 courses operated by a university between 2019 and 2020. The study found that the satisfaction level of the remote video class was significantly high. In addition, the combination of remote video classes and face-to-face was more satisfactory than other cases. On the other hand, the satisfaction level of small classes in both face-to-face and remote video classes was higher than that of medium or large classes. This means that even remote video classes are highly satisfactory in small-scale classes. Based on the findings, the study proposes a paradigm for new college classes.
