본 연구는 중학생 대상의 온라인 과학영재교육 프로그램에서 교수실재감의 하위요소 중 하나인 담화촉진 요소와 도전감, 학습결과 변인인 지속수강의사 및 학업성취도 간의 관계를 밝히기 위해 실시되었다. 연구대상은 K대학 온라인 과학영재교육 프로그램에 참여하는 중학생 245명이었으며, 연구도구로는 Shea, Swan과 Pickett(2005)의 교수실재감 문항 중 담화촉진 6문항과, Gentry와 Owen(2004)이 개발한 SPOCQ 도구의 도전감 5문항을 사용하였다. 연구결과로는 첫째, 담화촉진 인식수준이 높을수록 학습자가 느끼는 도전감도 높은 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 담화촉진 인식수준이 학습결과에 미치는 직접적인 영향은 지속수강의사와는 정적인 관련이 있으나, 학업성취도와는 부적인 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 도전감은 지속수강의사 및 학업성취도와 정적인 관계에 있으며 넷째, 도전감은 담화촉진 정도와 지속수강의사 및 학업성취도간의 관계를 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 학습자가 온라인수업에서 이루어지는 다양한 대화로부터 도움을 받고 있다고 느낄 때 수업에 대한 도전감이 높아지며, 높아진 도전감이 궁극적으로 지속수강의사와 학업성취도 같은 학습결과에 긍정적인 영향을 미침을 의미한다. 따라서 온라인교육을 실시할 때는 학생들의 도전감을 높일 수 있도록 학생들의 참여와 토론을 촉진하는 적극적인 노력이 수반될 필요가 있다.

The purpose of this study is to identify patterns of learner behaviors, conflicting and facilitating factors during collaborative work in an online learning community(OLC). This study further seeks to investigate the difference of learner behaviors between high- and low-performing groups, and conflicting and facilitating factors. The online postings from four groups(19 students) in the spring semester(study 1) and six groups(24 students) in the fall semester(study 2) were analyzed. A coding scheme was generated based on constant comparison using the qualitative data analysis tool, NVivo. The analysis identified 7 categories of learner behaviors in both studies. Among the seven categories, information seeking and co-construction were most frequently observed in both studies. One evident difference between the high- and low-performing groups was that the high-performing groups revealed more incidents of learner behaviors in both studies. In addition, six categories of conflicting factors and five categories of facilitating factors were emerged in both studies. The inefficiency of work category was one of the most frequently observed categories in both studies. Interestingly, the high-performing groups showed more incidents of conflicting factors than the low-performing groups. This study revealed two different types of conflicting factors and there is a need for different moderating strategies depending on its type. Based on the results of the study, effective design strategies for an OLC to facilitate active learning were suggested.
