  • This study aims at investigating the linguistic and educational factors affecting TOEFL scores, focusing on three OECD countries, Korea, Japan, and Finland. The data comprise document analysis on curriculums, websites, and literature. The findings reveal that the number of Korean test-takers and their TOEFL scores gradually increased year by year. Finnish test-takers consistently gained greatly high scores, and Japanese examinees showed the lowest scores. The languages Korean, Japanese, and Finnish are all far distant from English and receive little support on historical grounds from the Indo-European family tree. In Finland, however, Swedish which belongs to Indo-European languages is still used as an official language with Finnish. Korea and Finland adopt English education from Year 3 in primary school, whereas English is not an official subject in primary school at present in Japan. Finnish students are taught a foreign language in addition to English from primary school. These seem to support the result of the high TOEFL scores of Finnish test-takers. This study concludes that social context which includes linguistic and educational environments are the main factors which affect TOEFL scores.

  • 본 논문에서는 공학계열의 1학년 학생들이 자신의 분야와 다른 분야의 공학과의 관련성을 더 잘 이해하고, 공학적 상상력을 향상시킬 수 있는 교수법을 제안한다. 전통적으로 주변학문과 자신의 전공분야의 관계를 이해시키고 공학인으로서의 정체성을 주지시키기 위하여 1학년의 교육과정에 '공학설계' 과목을 배치하고 있다. 그러나 이 교육 목표를 달성하기 위하여, 단순 강의를 통한 설명이 주가 되어 왔으며, 적절한 실습을 통한 학습에는 그 소재나 형식의 선정에 한계가 있어왔다. 본 연구를 통하여, Reverse-engineering을 이용한 새로운 교육방법이 5년간에 걸쳐 시도되었으며, 이를 통하여 공학기초 교육목표를 달성할 수 있었다.

  • eLearning can be defined as an approach to teaching and teaming that utilises Internet technologies to communicate and collaborate in an educational context. This includes technology that supplements traditional classroom training with web-based components and learning environments where the educational process is experienced online. The use of hypertext as an educational tool has a very rich history. The advent of the internet and one of its major application, the world wide web (WWW), has given a tremendous boost to the theory and practice of hypermedia systems for educational purposes. However, the web suffers from an inability to satisfy the heterogeneous needs of a large number of users. For example, web-based courses present the same static teaming material to students with widely differing knowledge of the subject. Adaptive hypermedia techniques can be used to improve the adaptability of eLearning. In this paper we report an approach to the design a unified implementation framework suitable for web-based eLearning that accommodates the three main dimensions of hypermedia adaptation: content, navigation, and presentation. The framework externalises the adaptation strategies using XML notation. The separation of the adaptation strategies from the source code of the eLearning software enables a system using the framework to quickly implement a variety of adaptation strategies. This work is a part of our more general ongoing work on the design of a framework for adaptive content delivery. parts of the framework discussed in this paper have been imulemented in a commercial eLearning engine.

  • 사이버 강의는 전통적인 수업의 대안으로써 주목을 받았으나, 교육의 효율성이 떨어진다는 비판을 받아왔다. 하지만 교육 공학이 접목된 사이버 강좌의 기획력과 최근 컴퓨터 및 네트웍 등의 기술 발전의 결합은 사이버 강좌 교육의 효율성을 상당히 제고하는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 본 논문의 지향점은 사이버 강좌 교육의 학습 효율성을 높이기 위하여 사이버 강좌 제작에 있어서 중점이 되는 요소들을 파악하는데 있다. 본 연구를 위하여 제작된 사이버 강좌는 강좌의 학습 효율성을 극명하게 나타내기 위하여 일반적인 이론교육이 아닌 소프트웨어 실습이 중심이 되는 컴퓨터 교과목이다. 제작된 강좌의 학습 효율성을 위하여 강의를 수강한 학생들에 설문 조사를 통하여 데이터를 수집한 후 통계적인 처리를 통하여 사이버 강좌의 학습 효율성에 유의미한 영향을 주는 요소들을 분석하였다.

  • 본 연구는 도행지의 대표적인 교육실천인 학교 설립 및 운영 과정에 대한 분석을 통하여 도행지의 학교교육관에 대해 살펴보았다. 도행지는 교육기회의 확대를 위하여 다양한 형식의 학교를 설립하고 운영하였다. 이 학교들은 교육대상의 보편화를 위한 도행지의 교육실천으로 전인교육을 위한 교육목표 하에 생활교육론에 입각한 교육내용으로 교사와 학생의 역할분담을 최소화한 "교학주합일"의 교수학습방식을 취하고 있다. 또한 학교 운영에서 학칙과 각종 제도를 통한 제도화 관리와 학생 자치를 통한 민주화 관리를 실시하였다. 이러한 도행지의 교육실천은 학교교육의 교육대상, 교육목표, 교육내용, 교육방법 및 학교 운영의 본질적인 변혁을 일으켰으며 현대 학교교육의 발전에도 중요한 시사점을 제공하고 있다.

  • The processes of informatization of the modern educational space are inextricably linked with the active introduction of innovative information technologies, which diversify the forms of education and upbringing. The use of these technologies in education due to their specific properties significantly enhances the clarity of learning, emotional impact on students, helps to deepen interdisciplinary links, intensifies students' work, and improves the organization of educational activities. Innovative information technologies offer new opportunities for the use of text, audio, graphic, and video information in lessons, enriching the methodological possibilities of the lesson. Today, the use of these technologies is becoming an integral part of the study of any subject. Using multimedia presentations, publications, and websites created by students in the learning process, they can develop learning skills. According to researchers, there are many multimedia programs for working with a computer in a music lesson, namely: a music player, a program for singing karaoke, a music constructor, music encyclopedias, and training programs. The introduction of innovative information technologies in the system of music education allows expanding learning opportunities.

  • Many universities are searching for educational methods to cultivate problem-solving ability and cooperative learning ability or already trying to implement them. Problem Based Learning(PBL) and Action Learning(AL) are effective teaching and learning methods to cultivate men of talent qualified for problem-solving and cooperative learning abilities that universities are seeking after. PBL and AL have something in common in that learning is accomplished while learners are solving the authentic problem. But, in spite of this similarity, PBL and AL have differences. However, most literatures and cases on these two models introduce only the outline of commons and differences and do not provide teachers with actual helping aids to select a model appropriate for the actual design or operation of classes. Accordingly, many teachers usually select and utilize a familiar model rather than select a proper model to the nature of a subject and the educational goal. Teaching and learning methods or learning environment should be selected appropriately to the educational goal. This study indicates the characteristics of PBL and AL that are being introduced and utilized as a principal teaching and learning method of college education and then shows how this method can be realized in the university by comparing the cases of classes applied in two methods.
