This study is a study of factors affecting pre-service teachers' learning immersion in online science classes. The results of a survey on the responses of 88 pre-primary teachers to online science classes were interpreted. In online science class, independent variables were set as ease, usefulness, and social presence, and dependent variables were set as learning immersion. Online science classes were conducted based on the university's LMS system. The results of the study were interpreted by regression analysis for t-test, correlation between factors, and multicollinearity test in pre-post-responses of pre-service teachers for ease, usefulness, and social presence. The results of this study are as follows. First, there was a significant effect in the before-and-after tests of factors in the online science class. Second, the correlation coefficient between factors in online science class is .306 for sense of community and mutual support and concentration at the significance level of .01, and .354 for learning immersion and open communication, indicating that there is a correlation. Third, considering the effective results of the pre-post test of each factor in the online science class, it cannot be interpreted that a particular factor had an effect, but it is interpreted that learning was immersed in ease, usefulness, and a sense of social presence.

This study is tried to to identify factors affecting academic achievement depending on the quality of class, learning immersion, level of academic achievement, and class type according to video production classes and real-time video classes in the on-contact learning situation due to the COVID-19 epidemic. The subjects of the study were 122 students enrolled in the nursing department at two universities. As a result of the study, the quality of the class was high in real-time video classes (t=-2.69, P=0.02), learning immersion was high in video production classes (t=1.14, P=0.28), and academic achievement was high in video production classes (t=4.24, P=0.01). Depending on the type of class, the effect on academic achievement is learning immersion in production video classes (β=.37, p<.001) has the most influence, and in real-time video classes, class quality (β=.29, p<.001) had the most influence on academic achievement. Based on the results of this study, it is suggested that it is necessary to develop a strategy for instructional design suitable for class types to improve academic achievement in an on-contact environment.

Our society is undergoing rapid changes due to COVID-19, and in particular, online learning using digital technology is being tried in various forms in the educational field. A change has occurred. However, the limitations of distance learning, such as reduced learning immersion in non-face-to-face educational situations, lack of interaction between teachers and learners, and lower basic academic ability, are constantly being raised, and an appropriate educational strategy is needed to solve these problems. This study focused on the concept of 'Metaverse' based on the interaction between the virtual world and the real world, and tried to verify the effectiveness of educational activities based on it. In detail, we propose an educational framework for realizing flipped learning in the Metaverse Virtual Classroom, and a frame developed by measuring the learning immersion of a single group with a teaching/learning program developed based on this. The effectiveness of the work was verified. When the metaverse platform-based flip learning framework and education program proposed in this study were applied, it was confirmed that learners' immersion in learning was improved.

This study is a descriptive survey to develop a gamification e-learning class based on self-determination theory and to check its effectiveness. The data collection period was from March 1 to June 15, 2023, and 59 students at G University in G Metropolitan City were surveyed on class participation, learning immersion, and teaching presence before and after the course. IBM SPSS/Win 26.0 was used to analyze the collected data, and descriptive statistics, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) were conducted. The results showed that the self-determination-based gamification class significantly improved students' class participation, learning engagement, and teaching presence (p<.05). An analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was conducted to determine whether the general characteristics of the participants affected the results of the post-test, and gender affected the post-test results of learning engagement, with an effect of 7.9%. Based on the results of this study, it can be seen that self-determination-based gamification e-learning class is effective in improving learners' class participation, learning engagement, and teaching presence. As the demand for e-learning in universities is expanding, self-determination-based gamification e-learning classes should be developed in various fields of liberal arts and majors.

This study investigated differences in presence, immersion, and situational interest in small group learning using augmented reality, based on the degree of tool sharing. 84 eighth-grade students participated in small groups of four. Each group was randomly assigned to one of three environments based on marker and device sharing: the shared environment (shared marker and device usage), the mixed environment (shared marker and individual device usage), and the individual environment (individual marker and device usage). Small group learning using augmented reality was conducted for three class periods, focusing on the "Characteristics of Matter" unit. One-way ANOVA results for the dependent variables revealed that, compared to the shared environment, presence and situational interest were significantly higher in the mixed environment, while immersion and situational interest were significantly higher in the individual environment. MANOVA results for the sub-components of each dependent variable showed significant differences in realness for presence, antecedents and experiences for immersion, and instant enjoyment, novelty, and total interest for situational interest. Analysis of interviews and classroom observations indicated that students in shared and individual environments tended to use their devices individually when utilizing augmented reality. However, in mixed environments, students showed a tendency to use their devices collaboratively, leading to more active interactions. Based on these findings, environments for using tools to enhance the effectiveness of small group learning using augmented reality are discussed.

As the demand for AI education increases, AI education is actively conducted in the educational field, but it is difficult to internalize AI education due to securing time, difficulty in organizing class contents, and lack of curriculum. As a way to solve this problem, there is a school autonomous course. The school autonomous course allows schools to have autonomy and discretion throughout the curriculum, such as adjusting the number of hours in the subject group and restructuring the use of achievement standards. In this study, in order to enhance AI education, the effect was analyzed by developing and applying an AI education immersion course using a school autonomous curriculum. In the AI education immersion course, students continuously experience AI education in a dense manner within a limited time, so substantial AI education can be achieved. After the AI curriculum, it was found that students' overall AI literacy and self-determination learning motivation improved. It is expected that this study will be able to present a direction to internalize AI education using school autonomous curriculum.
