This study investigates the relationships among academic stress, learning satisfaction, and learning flow of the health science college students who take online classes in college. The subjects were 129 students and the data were collected from November 15th, 2020 to December 22th, 2020 using a self-report structured questionnaire. The data analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation analysis, and multiple regression. As a result of this study, academic stress showed a negative correlation between learning satisfaction (r=.-78, p<.001) and learning flow (r=.-70, p<.001). And learning satisfaction showed a positive correlation between learning flow (r=.71, p<.001). In the results of multiple regression analysis, factors influencing the learning flow of students were amount of assignments in online classes, number of online practice courses completed in the last semester, academic stress, and learning satisfaction. All of these variables together explained 59.0%. Therefore, in order to increase learning flow in online classes, strategies to reduce academic stress and development of various educational programs are required.

This study is to develop and validate the academic motivation scale for medical students(AMSMS) based on self-determination theory. After composing preliminary questions from 74 students, a preliminary and main survey were conducted with 148 and 300 students from September to November 2020. Factor analysis, reliability analysis, and correlation analysis were used. As a result of exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, construct validity was verified. The fitness index of the five-factor model of amotivation, external regulation, introjected regulation, identified regulation, intrinsic motivation was good. The reliability of each factor was ranged from 0.760 to 0.933. The criterion validity of AMSMS was verified by showing a correlation with academic self-efficacy and school life satisfaction. This results show that the AMSMS is both valid and reliable, and it is expected to be used in research related to academic motivation of medical students in the future.

In recent years, various educational institutions have used online certificate services to verify academic achievement related to graduation and grades. However, the certificate of the existing system has limitations in verifying and tracking whether it is true or not and detailed academic background. In this regard, cases of forgery/falsification of online/offline certificates continue to occur. This study proposes a blockchain-based verification method that is safe from forgery and alteration, focusing on university institutions. Necessary information such as detailed class categories for each department, attendance, and detailed grades was collected/analyzed to create a linkage relationship through blockchain. In addition, the system/network environment required for blockchain sharing was considered, and it was implemented as an extension module in the form of an independent web application. As a result of the block chain verification, it was proved that the safe trust verification of educational information and the relationship between detailed information can be traced. This study aims to contribute to the improvement of academic credential verification services and information security for Korean educational institutions in the future.

This study was conducted for the purpose of analyzing the differences in academic presence and achievement according to the types of e-learning contents development. Content development types were divided into HTML5-based contents, which is interactive contents, and Flash-based contents, which is video presenting type. One group at G high school located in B region learned with HTML5-based contents, and the other group learned with Flash-based contents, and then conducted a survey on the presence and an achievement evaluation. Presence was analyzed through a paired t-test, and the difference in academic achievement was measured through analysis of covariance. As a result of the study, it was found that HTML5-based contents had high levels of presence and academic achievement. Based on the results of the study, the development direction of e-learning contents to be developed in the future was discussed.

Based on the operating system of the advanced school athletic clubs operated to attempt a new paradigm of athletic culture in the field of school athletics, this study aimed to conduct an in-depth analysis of the student athletes' academic level and seek a solution for the stream of the times and integrated change based on a relative minimum academic achievement standard applied by this system. For Analyzing the difference in academic grades between subjects to which the minimum academic achievement standard by the event is applied, one-way ANOVA and MANOVA were used. First, the grade point average (GPA) of the student athletes by the event did not reach the GPA of most general students. Second, it was predicted that in applying a standard, relative to the general students, as academic grades increased, the probability in which the student athletes do not reach the minimum academic achievement standard would increase. Third, it turned out that, even in the phased application of the current minimum academic achievement standard to the GPA of the student athletes by the event, the ratio of the attainment of the minimum academic achievement was similar.
