T Abstract This study investigates the influence of differential factors on learner satisfaction by field-independent learning style in e-learning. Most of data were collected from students. Participants were classified based on a learning style typology (field-independent/dependent) and, then, analyzed was the influence of key factors on learner satisfaction using multiple regression analysis. This study suggests that e-Learning service providers need to differentiate learners based on learning style in order to improve learner satisfaction. Specially, Field independent learners are more likely to be satisfied by the teacher's provide degree of joyful, degree of contents, degree of learning control pacing, ability of problem solving and consistency.

Focusing on both the form of open classroom and that of independent one which have been most planned and being built, this study was designed to see if the educational environment of their inner space, structure, and facilities gives a proper support to classroom activities during the various classes based on open education. Selecting representative teaching methods in elementary school, such as open simultaneous learning, learning through a medium, learning in the corner, subject learning, team teaching and learning hardening basics, this study surveyed problems and improvements using literature works, questionnaires, observing, and interviews. Through the study on learning space for open education, it has been known that the form of independent classroom fits into one classroom learning and open classroom into small group learning and individual learning, and that the form of open classroom connecting open space with a classroom are more desirable when there is change from large to small group.

Clearly, the smartphone is increasingly playing a greater role in everyday life, thus providing opportunities to evaluate how well the use of the smartphone meets the requirements of undergraduate students in independent learning outside of a classroom setting. This study used the task-technology fit (TTF) model to explore the effectiveness of smartphone usage to interact with learning materials in independent learning outside of classrooms, the need for smartphone support, and the fit of devices to tasks as well as performance. First, the study used interviews, observation, and survey data to identify what are the most important constructs of smartphones that stimulate students to interact with learning materials in independent learning outside of classrooms. Based on the findings from the exploratory study and Task Technology Fit theory, we postulated the Navigation design, Ergonomic design, Content support, and Capacity as the essential dimension of the smartphone construct. Then, we proposed a research model and empirically tested hypotheses with the structural model analysis. The results reveal a significant positive impact of task and technology on TTF for smartphone usage to interact with learning materials in independent learning outside of classrooms; it also confirmed the TTF and performance have a direct effect on actual use.

Independent Component analysis (ICA) is a new statistical method for extracting statistically independent components from their linear instantaneous mixtures which are generated by an unknown linear generative model. The recognition model is learned in unsupervised manner so that the recovered signals by the recognition model become the possibly scaled estimates of original source signals. This paper addresses the neural learning approach to ICA. As recognition models a linear feedforward network and a linear feedback network are considered. Associated learning algorithms for both networks are derived from maximum likelihood and information-theoretic approaches, using natural Riemannian gradient [1]. Theoretical results are confirmed by extensive computer simulations.

This study compared the difference of learning style, self-regulated learning, learning flow, analyzed the learning style impact on self-regulated learning and learning flow between gifted and normal student. The subjects of this study were 118 sixth grade gifted students and 124 general students who showed academic achievement of the same level. According to the results of this study, gifted elementary children had more than the general independent, competitive, participatory learning style and they used personal, behavioral and environmental self-regulation strategies more often. Also they had a higher degree of learning flow than the general. Both gifted and general students, the more independent and participatory learning style, the more increased self-regulated learning and learning flow. And the more used self-regulated learning, the more increased learning flow. The learning flow of the gifted children was higher the more independent, the more participatory, the more used behavioral and personal self-regulated learning strategies. The learning flow of the general elementary children was higher the more participatory, the more used environmental and personal self-regulated learning strategies.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the learner's characteristics, and relationship between learning styles and achievements in online programming learning environment. For the analysis, after performing the inspection of learning styles of Grasha-Reichmann for 104 middle and high school students, online programming learning were performed for 12 weeks. First, according to learner's variable, boy was higher than girls in dependent learning style. Middle school student higher than high school student in competitive and avoid learning styles. Independent and participant learning styles show a significant difference in achievement level. Analysis of the relationship between learning styles and achievements show that independent(r=.253, p<.01) and participant(r=.303, p<.01) have the positive correlations. As a result, independent and participant learning styles are confirmed to be related with achievements. In addition, we analyzed each learning style characteristics by writing survey of the impression of the learners by main learning styles, through which we could derive teaching and learning strategies for the online programming by learning styles.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the traits on the cognitive and affective learning style of university students. CALSIU(The Cognitive & Affective Learning Style Inventory for University School Students) by Kim, E. J. was modified for applying to university students and performed with 399 university students from three universities in Daejeon and Chungnam. Statistical analysis done in this study were ANOVA and Scheffe's test. Findings of the study are as follows : First, the students with high academic achievements have intuitive perception type, whole processing type, and deep storage & recall type. Secondly, the students with low academic achievement have strong non-academic learning type. Third, interaction attitude of affective learning styles is the important element to determine their academic achievement. The students with independent type get high academic achievements. Therefore, instructor should consider the learning styles of students, and it should be used to improve their teaching & learning strategy for better academic achievements of university students.

This study aimed at studying the sequence of the Figure Transformation Learning, inquiring relationship among these transformations and then researching whether there is the difference of the learning ability or not between by teaching them as it is independent and by teaching them as it is contains. (Hypothesis 1) It may be more effective to teach The Sequence of Transformation Learning by beginning with peculiar field, ending with general field than vice versa At the result of verification-C $R_{M}$=2.59, 0.005$R_{M}$=5.19, p<0.005-significant difference appeared. It is proved more effective to teach the Figure Transformation Learning the way it contains than the way it is independent. Synthesizing two hypothesises of the above, the conclusion is following The Figure Transformation Learning should be taught by beginning with peculiar field. ending with general field (congruent transformationlongrightarrowsimilar transformationlongrightarrowprojective transformationlongrightarrowtopological transformation). To teach it the way it contains is more effective.ive.

This paper proposes a machine learning approach for language-independent sentence boundary detection. The proposed method requires no heuristic rules and language-specific features, such as part-of-speech information, a list of abbreviations or proper names. With only the language-independent features, we perform experiments on not only an inflectional language but also an agglutinative language, having fairly different characteristics (in this paper, English and Korean, respectively). In addition, we obtain good performances in both languages. We have also experimented with the methods under a wide range of experimental conditions, especially for the selection of useful features.

A high-speed Internet has brought a rapid spread of Web Based Distance Learning(WBDL). Even though the WBDL was considered a new methodology to overcome the limitation of a traditional education, it evolves not as alternatives but as strategic augmenting tools for a traditional face-to-face education. The WBDL systems accommodate diverse services such as e-Learning, e-Mentoring, and Blended Learning in order to give satisfactions to learners and increase the learning effectiveness. This study suggested the WBDL system's and learner's characteristics as two major affecting factors, in which two independent variables were respectively selected. A mediating effect of learning motivation between the independent variables and learning achievement was empirically tested. The interactions between the WBDL sysrem and learners were also tested on the view points of the moderating effects between the learning motivation and the learning achievement. The results showed that the mediating effects of learning motivation and the moderating effects of the system interactions were statistically significant.
