현재, 사회가 정보화 되어감에 따라 교육분야에서 컴퓨터의 가치는 더욱 높아지고 있으며, 기존의 교실위주의 수업보다 시간적 공간적 제약을 덜 받게 되는 WBI(Web Based Instruction)는 무한한 발전 가능성을 가지고 있다. 하지만 기존의 WBI에서는 교수의 강의가 끝나면 수업 평가 후 학생에게 수업의 결과를 알려주는 형식이었고, 도한 학습자에게는 일률적으로 평가가 적용되어 학생의 수준에 맞는 수업을 할 수가 없었으며, 교수의 입장에서도 학생들의 평가 결과가 수업의 질을 높이거나 내용을 변경시킬 근거가 될 수는 없었다. 따라서 수준별 학습을 위한 단계별 예비 테스트와 학습 후 테스트의 평가내용을 다양한 방법으로 시각적으로 제시하고, 또한 교수가 평가의 준거를 입력하고 학습자의 평가결과와 교수자의 평가준거를 비교할 수 있는 교수지원 컴포넌트를 작성하고자 한다. 이는 체계적인 평가 방법론이 되고 학습의 패러다임을 바꾸거나 과목을 변경할 경우, 그 결과에 따라 교수 방법의 변화나 수업내용을 변경하고자할 때 용이하다. 또한 유사한 다른 패러다임의 WBI 시스템에서도 이미 개발된 컴포넌트를 사용함으로써, 사용의 용이성과 이식성, 재사용성을 높일 수 있게 한다.

This study has intended to develop an evaluation model to select suitable locations of recreation forests in accordance with their types, and to apply the models to the feasibility study of selecting suitable recreation forest locations of candidate sites. To reach this goal, this study employed a Delphi expert survey method and Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) for the whole process of model building. And the followings are what this study has found during model building and application process. First, the assessment criteria for classifying recreation forests and selecting suitable locations were initially identified through justification process with two rounds of expert review, after broken down into 2 categories, and then further divided into 6 items and 12 indicators accompanying with hierarchical structure. Second, in the third phase of Delphi expert survey, the relative weights of the assessment criteria were derived by employing AHP. Through overlaying two evaluation categories including resource and usability, 4 types of recreation forest were presented. In the forth phase of the Delphi survey, this study has developed an evaluation model to select suitable locations of recreation forests in accordance with their types using relative weights of the selected indicators through. This study has applied the models to the feasibility study of selecting suitable recreation forest locations of candidate sites, and found that the usability of recreation forest was severely affected by the distance from the capital region, that the closer the locations of natural recreation forests from the capital region, the more advantageous. The developed model can be used to designate recreation forests in accordance with their types.
