The relevance of the research involves outlining the need for modern professionals to acquire new competencies. In the conditions of rapid civilizational progress, in order to meet the requirements of the labor market in the knowledge society, there is a readiness for continuous training as an indicator of professional success. The purpose of the research is to identify the impact of various forms of application of information technologies for lifelong learning in order to provide the continuous self-development of each person without cultural or age restrictions and on the basis of rapid digital progress. A high level (96%) of need of the adult population in continuing education with the use of digital technologies has been established. The most effective ways to implement the concept of "lifelong learning" have been identified (educational camps, lifelong learning, mass open online courses, Makerspace activities, portfolio use, use of emoji, casual game, scientific research with iVR game, implementation of digital games, work in scientific cafes). 2 basic objectives of continuing professional education for adults have been outlined (continuous improvement of qualifications and obtaining new qualifications). The features of ICT application in adult education have been investigated by using the following methods, namely: flexibility in terms of easy access to ideas, solving various problems, orientation approach, functional learning, group or individual learning, integration of leisure, personal and professional activities, gamification. The advantages of application of information technologies for continuous education (economic, time, and adaptive) have been revealed. The concept of continuous adult learning in the context of digitalization has been concluded. The research provides a description of the structural principles of the concept of additional education; a system of information requests of the applicant, as well as basic technologies for lifelong learning. The research indicates the lack of comprehensive research in the relevant field. The practical significance of the research results lies in the possibility of using the obtained results for a wider acquaintance of the adult population with the importance of the application of lifelong learning for professional activities and the introduction of methods for its implementation in the educational policy of the state.

본 연구는 다중참여역할수행게임(Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game, 이하 MMORPG)이 자기주도 학습능력에 미치는 효과를 살펴보는데 목적이 있으며, 초등학교에 재학중인 4, 5, 6학년 3개 학급을 실험 대상으로 4주간 실험하였다. 실험집단은 방과 후 수업시간을 이용하여 일주일에 2시간 이상 MMORPG를 활용한 한자수업을 학습하도록 지도하였고, 통제집단은 교사의 수업 진행으로 학습하였다. 실험 전 두 집단 간의 자기주도 학습능력에 대한 동질성을 검증하기 위하여 자기주도 학습준비도 검사(Self-Directed Learning Readiness Scale, 이하 SDLRS)를 이용하여 자기주도 학습능력 사전검사를 실시하였고, 4주간 실험이 끝난 후 자기주도 학습능력 검사의 차이를 알아보았다. 더 나아가 하위요소인 효율적인 학습자라는 개념, 학습에 대한 솔선수범 및 독립성, 창의성, 자신의 학습에 대한 책임감, 기본학습 기능과 문제해결 기술, 미래 지향적인 자기이해 학습기회에 대한 개방성, 학습에 대한 애정과 열성을 다변량분산분석(MANOVA)를 실시하여 통계분석 하였다. 이러한 연구결과들을 바탕으로 다음과 같은 결론을 내릴 수 있다. 첫째, MMORPG를 활용한 한자학습과 일반교실 한자학습은 독립표본 t검정 결과 자기주도 학습능력에서 유의미한 차이가 나타났다. 즉, MMORPG를 활용한 한자학습이 일반교실수업에 의한 학습보다 높은 자기주도 학습능력 정도를 보여 주었다. 둘째, MMORPG를 활용한 한자학습이 하위요소 간에 어떠한 여향을 미치는가를 알아보기 위해 실시한 MANOVA 결과 효율적인 학습자라는 개념, 학습에 대한 솔선수범 및 독립성, 창의성, 자신의 학습에 대한 책임감, 기본학습 기능과 문제해결 기술, 미래 지향적인 자기이해에서는 유의미한 것으로 나왔지만 학습기회에 대한 개방성, 학습에 대한 애정과 열성에서는 유의미한 결과를 얻지 못하였다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the physical environmental readiness for smart learning and the actual utilization of smart devices by special education teachers, and to suggest ways to vitalize smart education. For this, a 14-item survey questionnaire was developed, which touched upon issues regarding the availability of wireless internet service and teachers' utilization of smart devices. An online survey was conducted among a randomly chosen sample of 991 special education teachers across the nation, including teachers who work at special schools for developmentally disabled students and in special classes at all three levels of regular schools.The collected data was analyzed with the method of a cross-time-frequency analysis using a SPSS 21.0 statistics program. The research findings indicated that both special schools and classes had a poor smart education environment and that special education teachers were having a harding time because of the lack of the infrastructure and additional expenses. In addition, special education teachers were found to use smart device mostly for the purpose of motivating students. These research findings propose that it is urgent to set up a proper smart education environment for special needs students and to provide a systematic training program for special education teachers.
