We have developed a peer agent to support programming learning and analyzed its educational effects in a programming course. The agent acts as a tutor or a tutee. The role of a tutor/tutee is like the role of a navigator/driver in pair programming. While students are learning with the peer agent, the students' programming abilities are modeled. Based on the student's model, the peer agent provides appropriate feedbacks and contents to the learner. The peer agent gives positive effects on learners' achievement and self-efficacy in a programming course. It means that the peer agent system helps the learner in an affective domain as well as a cognitive domain.

Although there was an introduction of the class with in mind learner's individual learning ability as a method improving problems of the class which consists of students with various kinds of levels, it was a burden to both teacher and students because of many realistic problems. In this paper, we investigate the efficiency of peer tutoring teaching method which is the one that students having a superior ability for learning become peer tutors and they teach other peer tutee under the teacher's guidance and supervision. After we apply the class-wide peer tutoring to some sophomore classes, we obtain that this teaching method affects positively the students's learning achievement and learning attitude in mathematics class. In particular, we obtain that the peer tutoring is more effective in three to one group than in one to one group.

The purpose of this study is to develop and implement the Appropriate Technology Science School program (ATSS) for youth operated by the Europe-Korea Conference on Science & Technology (EKC) since 2016. The development process consisted of pre-online management meetings, online and offline tutor training, operation of ATSS for youth, and satisfaction surveys. As a result of the development, the management team selected the mission-solving theme of "Transforming village using blockchain technology" through a pre-online meeting. The contents were reorganized according to the level of the participating tutees, and various learning activities such as co-building activities, games, and plays were newly introduced and developed first, and the programs developed through tutor training were demonstrated and improved. A total of 38 tutees and tutors from 6 countries participated in the 2018 ATSS. As a result, participants showed positive satisfaction overall. Tutees showed interest in dome co-building activities and hash function calculation activities, and tutors showed interest in lectures and monopoly games related to blockchain technology. The development and of the 2018 ATSS will contribute to the improvement of expertise in the operation of the EKC ATSS in the future to the management team. It will be an opportunity for tutors to experience that high-tech science and technology have a good impact on appropriate technology for the third world and community society. In addition, Tutees will be provided with an opportunity to indirectly experience the local situation and community society through a role play on the impact of blockchain technology on African villages.

In this study, we conducted eight reciprocal peer tutoring classes where each student took either role of a tutor or a tutee to study covariational reasoning in ninth graders. Students were given the opportunity to teach their peers with their covariational reasoning as tutors, and at the same time to learn covariational reasoning as tutees. A heterogeneous group was formed so that scaffolding could be provided in the teaching and learning process. A total of eight reciprocal peer tutoring worksheets were collected: four quantitative graph type questions and four questions of the qualitative graph to the group. The results of the analysis are as follows. In reciprocal peer tutoring, students who experienced a higher level of covariational reasoning than their covariational reasoning level showed an improvement in covariational reasoning levels. In addition, students enhanced the completeness of reasoning by modifying or supplementing their own covariational reasoning. Minimal teacher intervention or high-level peer mediation seems to be needed for providing feedback on problem-solving results.

본 연구에서는 데이터 분석도구인 R을 활용하여 튜터링 학습법 참여 학생의 성취도를 검증하였다. 분석도구 R은 대용량 데이터의 고급 분석과 통계 계산을 위한 스크립트 언어로 빅데이터의 자료 분석에 다양하게 활용되고 있다. 대학의 학습 활동 측면에서의 튜터링 학습법은 학습 능력이 우수한 선배 또는 동료인 튜터와 학습 받고자하는 튜티가 1:1 또는 1:N의 관계를 이루고 학습 활동을 진행해 나가는 과정이다. 튜터링 학습법 운영 후 실시하는 참여 학생 만족도 조사 결과에 의하여 튜터링 학습법이 학력 수준 차이를 극복하는데 도움이 되고 있다는 정성적인 근거는 있으나 정량적인 분석 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 튜터링 학습법에 참여한 공학정보학부 튜티들의 성적 결과를 분석도구 R을 활용하여 분석하여 튜터링 학습법이 학업성취도에 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것을 검증하였다.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of cooperative learning applying Jigsaw II on learner's self-regulated learning ability, achievements, self-esteem & cooperation. 12 graders were assigned to experimental group(applying Jigsaw II treatment) & control group(applying traditional instructional treatment). Experimental group was trained to ask comprehension & thought-provoking questions on the material when in tutor role & to explain material to group members when acting as tutee. Tutorial sessions followed over 8-week treatment. As a results, Experimental group outperformed control group on ability to construct learner's self-regulated learning ability, achievements, self-esteem & cooperation both during their tutorial interaction & on written measures.

최근 지식정보화 시대의 집단지성기반 교육 패러다임 변화는 큰 이슈로 떠오르고 있다. 특히 융합적 학문을 근원으로 창의성 계발과 아이디어를 중요시하고 있으며, 창조적 교육방식을 지향하고 있다. 그러나 다양한 영역에 지식전문가들과 학습자들 간에 지식을 공유하기 위한 플랫폼 공간이 제대로 제공되고 있지 못하며, 단순한 컨텐츠 제공을 목적으로 이러닝 서비스가 일부 제공되고 있는 것이 현실이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 집단지성을 기반으로 지능형 튜터링 에이전트 시스템 설계를 제안하고, 새로운 에이전트(Agent) 개념을 통해 지식인들과 학습자들 간에 지식을 공유할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 새로운 지식을 창출하고, 관리 및 유통할 수 있는 구조를 연구하였다. 또한 사용자들로부터 발생하는 데이터와 정보들을 자동 분석하여 지능적으로 학습상황에 대처할 수 있도록 설계하였으며, 튜터(Tutor)와 튜티(Tutee)간에 협력적인 학습 생태계가 형성될 수 있도록 하였다. 따라서 본 연구의 결과를 기반으로 미래 스마트 학습 플랫폼 발전에 많은 도움이 되길 기대한다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of peer tutoring on students' achievement and learning satisfaction in a liberal computer class at university level. Traditional teaching method was applied for the control group consisting 55 students for 8 weeks. The experimental group containing 44 students was instructed using both traditional teaching method and peer tutoring. According to the results of diagnosed test, the experimental group was divided into heterogeneous ability group of 3 or 4. The tutor training was provided a week in advance of the class and the students played a role of a tutor and tutee by taking turns. The results showed no significant differences between the two groups on academic achievement; however, in terms of students' learning satisfaction, it displayed a wider range of results. The learning satisfaction data from the experimental group showed a much higher level than that of the control group. It is predicted that the amount of class hours of a week, the quality of the lecture and the application of peer tutoring affect the students' academic achievement. It is suggested that subsequent research on peer tutoring will allow for more in-depth study in this field.

Small Group Collaborative Instruction in school settings has been endorsed by many educational experts over the years. Some studies found that learners greatly benefit from one another through communication and interaction with their peers. These studies previously indicated improvement of a learner‘s academic ability as well as the application of the affective domain when using this type of instruction. Lower-level students with limited mathematical abilities improved their problem-solving and conceptual thinking skills when tasked to work with other learners. On the other hand, the effectiveness of this process was questioned to be less evident with higher-level performers. Therefore, this study was designed to observe the efficacy of Small Group Collaborative Instruction on higher-level students and to explore their learning process as they interact with and teach lower-level students. This study observed that higher-level students use high-level mathematical thinking skills when helping lower-level students, and they improved problem-solving ability as well as communication skills.
