Purpose: The purpose of this study is to find out whether the color change of the LED light source has a significant effect on the beta wave activity of EEG in the learning state. Methods: The subjects of the experiment were 20 male and female college students between the ages of 19 and 25 who routinely perform their studies. In the created learning environment, the EEG change according to the change in the lighting color was measured while solving the Mensa thinking ability problem while sitting on a desk with LED lights installed on the top and a chair with a footrest to stabilize the legs. The light source consisted of 3 ready-made colors and 6 newly created colors. A total of 9 color light stimuli were given for 2 minutes each, and the EEG change of the subject was observed. After the experiment, the correlation was analyzed based on the mid-beta wave data recorded on the QEEG according to the color change of light and the Mensa problem score. Results: It was found that the activation of mid-beta waves was stimulated in the temporal lobes (T5, T3, T6, T4) and occipital lobes (O1, O2) of all subjects who focused on solving Mensa thinking problems. As a result of comparing the top 20% and the bottom 20% of problem solving scores, the upper group had no effect of lighting, while the lower group showed increased beta wave activity in response to color light stimulation in the order of T4, T6, and T5. Implications: It was confirmed that the color of light that activates the middle beta wave varies greatly depending on the subject's attention and learning ability, and it is judged that the color of light including the green wavelength is helpful in activating the middle beta wave in the group with low learning ability.

Over the past few years, training professionals have become more pragmatic in their approach to technology-based media by using it to augment traditional forms of training delivery, such as classroom instruction and text-based materials. This trend has led to the rise of the term blended learning. Blended learning, an environment of e-learning, is a powerful learning solution created through a mixture of face-to-face and online learning delivered through a mix of media and superior learning experiences. In this article we design and implement an e-learning environment for blended learning. The environment focused on following factors: learning activity and participation of learners, and real time feedback of instructor.

The recent development of metaverse-related technology has led to efforts to overcome the limitations of time and space in education by creating a virtual educational environment. To make use of this platform efficiently, applying learning analytics has been proposed as an optimal instructional and learning decision support approach to address these issues by identifying specific rules and patterns generated from learning data, and providing a systematic framework as a guideline to instructors. To achieve this, we employed an inductive, bottom-up approach for framework modeling. During the modeling process, based on the activity system model, we specifically derived the fundamental components of the learning analytics framework centered on learning activities and their contexts. We developed a prototype of the framework through deduplication, categorization, and proceduralization from the components, and refined the learning analytics framework into a 7-stage framework suitable for application in the metaverse through 3 steps of Delphi surveys. Lastly, through a framework model evaluation consisting of seven items, we validated the metaverse learning analytics framework, ensuring its validity.

언어학습 도구로서 스마트폰은 강의실 밖과 비교했을 때 수업시간에 활용되는 경우는 흔하지 않다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 영어 듣기의 수업 활동에서 스마트폰의 유용성을 파악하는 것이다. 71명의 학생들이 한 학기 동안 Practical English Listening and Reading 과목에서 개별적으로 스마트폰을 이용하여 듣기 활동을 하였다. 학기 말에 학생들은 스마트폰 활동에 관한 10문항의 설문에 응답하였다. 설문을 분석한 결과 스마트폰을 이용한 듣기 활동은 학생들의 영어 듣기에 대한 흥미를 유발하였으며 개인별 맞춤 학습으로서 듣기 능력을 향상시키는 효과를 가져왔다. 그런데 스마트폰이 지닌 다른 기능들이 학생들의 듣기 활동을 방해한다는 사실이 스마트폰 활용의 가장 큰 단점으로 나타났다. 이를 해결하기 위해 듣기 활동을 모두 스마트폰 활동으로 할 것이 아니라 강의실 컴퓨터를 사용한 전체 활동도 병행할 것을 제안한다. 학생들이 원하는 혼합율은 50대 50 이었다. 학생 집단의 수준에 따라 그 혼합율은 달라질 수 있을 것이다. 이러한 연구결과는 디지털 융합 영어학습을 활성화하는데 기여할 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate implications of self-directed learning experiments in elementary science education through understanding elementary school students' awareness of their experiences in self-directed learning experiments. Twenty students joined the school science club voluntarily and conducted self-directed learning experiments. We collected data through observation of the experiments, interviews, and questionnaires. The students who participated in the club showed high satisfaction with self-directed learning experiments. The participants were aware that their scientific interest and knowledge, and the confidence in conducting experiments were increased. The students felt positive about the inquiry process of conducting self-directed learning experiments with their own subjects. They also felt a sense of achievement in attempting their experiments in defiance of several failures. The participants realized that the self-directed inquires led to increased declarative and procedural knowledge of science. The students stated that they had some difficulties in coping with the different results contrary to expectations and preparing laboratory materials and instruments. Nonetheless, they showed the promotion of their scientific literacy during overcoming those difficulties. We suggest that self-directed learning experiments can be a more effective way in science learning to make students experience the nature of science than existing school experiments. This can be implemented through a creative experience activities such as science clubs.

Junior Ranger is a self-directed interpretation program for young visitors at national parks in the United States. The success of this program can be largely attributed to the role of an activity book which is given an applicant free of charge at a visitor center. This study aims to analyze the main characteristics of activity books for 14 national parks' Junior Ranger and to draw some implications for Korean geomorphological education. Although the activity books are varied in size, volume and printing, all of them offer diverse activities which are composed of different contents related to park resources in four fields and are performed in different ways such as Q&A, picture and word game, and creative activity. The time-consuming activities including attendance at a ranger-led program prevent the participant from making a superficial visit to be a junior ranger. The implications of the study are as follows: Firstly, the geomorphological education for children is needed to be strongly based on field experience learning and to be more carried out using a way of game rather than conventional Q&A, suggesting that it encourages students not to lose their interest for learning. Secondly, it is also necessary for the learning contents to be focused on various resources related to landform as well as landform itself. In addition, a creative activity such as writing verse or drawing feeling should be more applied to the geomorphological education in order to enhance their effects on affective domain beyond cognitive one. It is likely to be an alternative approach to understand landform by internalizing a sense of landform.

Recent improvements on the quality, fidelity and availability of biometric data have led to effective human physical activity detection (HPAD) in real time which adds significant value to applications such as human behavior identification, healthcare monitoring, and user authentication. Current approaches usually use machine-learning techniques for human physical activity recognition based on the data collected from wearable accelerometer sensor from a single wearable smart device on the user. However, collecting data from a single wearable smart device may not provide the complete user activity data as it is usually attached to only single part of the user's body. In addition, in case of the absence of the single sensor, then no data can be collected. Hence, in this paper, a continuous HPAD will be presented to effectively perform user activity detection with mobile service infrastructure using multiple wearable smart devices, namely smartphone and smartwatch placed in various locations on user's body for more accurate HPAD. A case study on a comprehensive dataset of classified human physical activities with our HAPD approach shows substantial improvement in HPAD accuracy.

Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep has an essential role in the process of learning and memory in the hippocampus. It has been reported that linalool, a major component of Lavandula angustifolia, has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective effects, along with other effects. However, the effect of linalool on the cognitive impairment and behavioral alterations that are induced by REM-sleep deprivation has not yet been elucidated. Several studies have reported that REM-sleep deprivation-induced memory deficits provide a well-known model of behavioral alterations. In the present study, we examined whether linalool elicited an anti-stress effect, reversing the behavioral alterations observed following REM-sleep deprivation in mice. Furthermore, we investigated the underlying mechanism of the effect of linalool. Spatial memory and learning memory were assessed through Y maze and passive avoidance tests, respectively, and the forced swimming test was used to evaluate anti-stress activity. The mechanisms through which linalool improves memory loss and behavioral alterations in sleep-deprived mice appeared to be through an increase in the serotonin levels. Linalool significantly ameliorated the spatial and learning memory deficits, and stress activity observed in sleep-deprived animals. Moreover, linalool led to serotonin release, and cortisol level reduction. Our findings suggest that linalool has beneficial effects on the memory loss and behavioral alterations induced by REM-sleep deprivation through the regulation of serotonin levels.
