The purpose of this study is to investigate grade differences in the effect of reading methods - "oral reading" "silent reading", "intensive reading", "extensive reading" "thorough reading", "selective reading" - influences on the self-directed learning ability. The data were collected by using 12 classes of 2nd, 4th, 6th-grade, 286 children of an elementary school. The influences according to reading methods on the self-directed learning ability were surveyed through the self-directed learning ability test and through questionnaire. Out of reading methods, "intensive reading" had significant influence on the self-directed learning ability Out of reading methods of 4th and 6th-grade children, "intensive reading" had the most influence on the self-directed learning ability. However. out of reading methods of 2nd-grade children "thorough reading" had most influence on the self-directed learning ability.

The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship among the self-directed learning ability, academic self-efficacy and academic achievement of elementary school students. The subjects of this study were 197 sixth graders. The results of this study were as follows. First, the correlations among self-directed learning ability, academic self-efficacy and academic achievement were significant. Second, among the variables of self-directed learning ability and academic self-efficacy, self-confidence, preference for task difficulty, self-understanding of learner and independent mind of learning were positively related to academic achievement. These results imply the need for measures to increase these variables of academic efficacy and self-directed learning ability in the field of education in order to improve students' academic achievement.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of Web-based self-directed learning and types of learning on the academic achievement and study attitudes of students. The subject of this study consists of 66 students of a high school. The group is divided into two subgroup. the self-directed learning group and teacher-guided learning group. each of which has 33 students. The results show that self-directed learning group improve academic achievement more than teacher-guided learning group. Especially. conceptual knowledge was more improved than principle-related knowledge. Self-directed learning proved to improve the subjects' study attitudes more than teacher-guided learning.

The purpose of this study was to examine the role of self-directed learning readiness between career maturity and academic stress. To examine it, a total of 582 cyber universities were participated in this study, and correlation analysis and regression analysis were conducted. Therefore, career maturity was significantly positive correlated with self-directed learning readiness and it was significantly negative correlated with academic stress. In addition, it was revealed that self-directed learning readiness mediated between career maturity and academic stress. Based on the results, we discussed the strategies for reducing academic stress for cyber students, limitations and suggestions for future researches were also discussed.

The purpose of this study was to suggest efficient method for development of learner's self-directed learning ability through literature review on self-directed learning, component of self-directed learning, development of self-directed learning ability, design education steps adopting problem based learning and project based learning. This study was conducted through literature review on self-directed learning and development of self-directed learning, design education. Design education and project based learning process and problem based learning to extract the items that are common to bring out five steps, and differences in levels of learners based on self-learning led to Grow(1991) model to connect the lessons of 9 steps present the design education steps, that is, the learners ready for learning, the definition of problem and recognition of necessity, team building, related data collection, team learning about real problem with the teacher, select optimal solution, student-centered discussion, models and product creation, testing and evaluation, complement.

The purpose of the study was to verify reliability and validity of SDLRS instrument and to prove up possibility of usage as an evaluation method for evaluating life-long learning. Literature review and survey were used to accomplish objectives of the study. 218 students in department of mechanical engineering of A university at Gyunggi province were responded for SDLRS(Guglielmino, 1977) instrument. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, factor analysis, t-test, and ANOVA test. 58 items in original version instrument were converted to 23 items. There were 7 factors for assessing the self-directed learning readiness according to this measurement scale with a total variance of about 58%. The total reliability of the final 23 items was $\alpha$. The final 7 factors consisted of love for learning, openness for learning, self-perception, basic learning function and independence, acceptance of responsibility for learning, leadership and future directivity, and creativity and exploration. The result of SDLRS analysis according to individual background, there were significant statistically in the grade, period of employment in industry, entering graduate school or not, and GPA, but no significant statistically in sexual difference, employment in industry or not, final academic level of parent, and income level of the family. In the future, final instrument will be needed to check in the respect of correlation with another ability and skill influencing on life-long learning, and more study will be done for developing life-long learning.

이 연구의 목적은 자기주도 초등교재의 조망인지기제 활용이 학업성취도 향상에 미치는 효과에 대해 살펴보고 학업성취도 향상에 영향을 주는 조망인지 하위 구성요소(계획, 점검, 평가)가 무엇인지 알아보고자 하는 데 있다. 연구목적을 달성하기 위해 실험집단(조망인지기제 활용 학습교재사용 집단)과 통제집단(기존 교재사용 집단)으로 구성된 초등학생 55명을 대상으로 실험을 실시하였다. 분석결과 첫째, 자기주도 초등교재의 조망인지기제 활용집단(M=70.38)과 전통식 학습집단 (M=60.84)의 학업성취도 평균은 통계적으로 유의미한 차이를 보였다. 둘째, 조망인지 하위 구성요소 중 '점검' 요소가 학업성취도 향상에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

This study compares the relative effectiveness of private tutoring and self-directed learning on the formation of cognitive (academic achievement on Korean, math, and English) and noncognitive skills (friendship, self esteem, creative personality, and motivation) of primary and secondary school students in Seoul. The results show that private tutoring has positive but diminishing effects on cognitive skill formation with no effects on noncognitive skill formation, while self-directed learning has positive effects on both cognitive and noncognitive skill formation.

The purpose of this study was to verify the causal relationship between self-directed learning ability and career maturity by Middle and High School Students in Seoul. This study used Seoul Education Longitudinal Study(SELS) data. Using autoregressive cross-lagged modeling, the results was followed. first, self-directed learning ability value was had a statistically significant positive effect in accordance with the time course from middle school 1st grade to high school 3rd grade. Second, career maturity also had a statistically significant positive effect in accordance with the time course from middle school 1st grade to high school 3rd grade. Third, previous self-directed learning ability had significant positive effect on the later career maturity, but the previous career maturity had no significant effect on later self-directed learning ability.

This study is on the effects of lifelong education participative motivation, self-efficacy, and self-directed learning on subjective happiness of middle age adults. Middle age adults 40-64 years old are questionnaire survey target in Incheon and Gyeonggido and total 289 copies among 300 were analyzed through SPSS 21.0. The major findings of this study con be seen as follows: The variables more affected on educational satisfaction of middle age adults are goal-oriented motivation and activity-oriented motivation in lifelong education participative motivation, self-regulated efficacy in self-efficacy, and each personality, recognition and environment in self-directed learning. In conclusion, new paradigm is needed for middle age adults in lifelong learning society. This program should provide them with knowledge and information for adapting the future society, Furthermore, middle age adults can achieve their own self exploration, self-development and self-realization through the lifelong education program. Given a chance of lifelong education, middle age adults should be provided with the specific programs.
