The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of peer tutoring and feedback on academic learning in university mathematics. We compared subject satisfaction and academic achievement between the test group and the control group. We classified the test group(82 participants) and the control group(134 non-participants) and then applied peer tutoring and feedback to the test group. The rest of the environment was the same except for participation in the program. According to results, it was confirmed that the subject satisfaction were significantly higher(significance level .05) in the test group, where the subject satisfaction were learning objectives and expectation, learning satisfaction, and learning effect. Furthermore, in the change of academic achievement, the rate of decrease was lower and the rate of increase was higher in the test group than the control group. The satisfaction of participants was 4.33(Likert scale 5), and this trend tended to be same regardless of gender, high school course, or admission process.

We describe a scheme for developing character-based interface within the context of an agent-based tutoring system in the Web environment. The ideas in this paper stem from original work representing aspects of human emotion in tutoring computer models, where may provide mote natural ways for students to communicate with digital learning materials. The proposed system model is a set of software services that enable developers to incorporate interactive animated characters into their Web pages designed for on-line lectures. The prototypical application is developed and shown for validating the applicability and the effectiveness of this model in real tutoring settings.

This study compares the relative effectiveness of private tutoring and self-directed learning on the formation of cognitive (academic achievement on Korean, math, and English) and noncognitive skills (friendship, self esteem, creative personality, and motivation) of primary and secondary school students in Seoul. The results show that private tutoring has positive but diminishing effects on cognitive skill formation with no effects on noncognitive skill formation, while self-directed learning has positive effects on both cognitive and noncognitive skill formation.

The Korean government initiated an educational policy regulating academic acceleration in schools (e.g., regulating teaching or assessing above-grade-level content) in order to normalize public education and prevent the growth of private tutoring. To analyze whether the policy is achieving its intended goals, this study examined how high school mathematics teachers responded to the policy. The findings indicate four distinct teacher responses: the teachers would teach above-grade-level lessons in classes, but not assess them on a test; the teachers sought academic acceleration to prevent excessive private tutoring, although the policymakers thought that teachers' academic acceleration results in an excessive demand for private tutoring; the teachers were willing to teach above-grade-level content for students, but they were reluctant to teach below-grade-level content due to the time constraints; and the teachers recognized that the policy limited their curricular autonomy, even though it was intended to ensure their autonomy. Implications for mathematics teacher educators and policymakers are discussed.

This study attempts to investigate the spatial characteristics of private tutoring markets for adults which have been expanded rapidly with labor market changes in Korea. In particular, For the purpose, we examine thoroughly various indies of labor markets and private tutoring markets for adults in Korea in first and then analyze the spatial characteristics. We classify private tutoring institutes for adults into two categories by job-statuses and education levels, and analyze the spatial distribution patterns of the attendants of the classes. In order to understand the spatial characteristic of their distributions, we distinguish whether there exist the spatial autocorrelation or not by applying Moran's I values for each categories in first. We also examine the spatial cluster patterns by Hot spots analysis utilizing $G^*$ statistics. Multiple linear regression models are developed for each category to explain the relationships between the spatial distributions of private tutoring institutes and geographical variables.

In this study, learning preferences of the informatics gifted participating in on-line programming practice has been investigated and the tutoring strategy based on learning styles was developed and verified its effectiveness. On-line programming learning is the environment in which learning is done through interaction with a tutor. For determination of the students' learning styles, Grasha-Reichmann's learning style was utilized. Key elements, learning activity and feedback, of tutoring strategy were derived based on learning style and developed on-line programming learning tutoring strategy. To verify the effectiveness, six-class period of learning C-language of 173 middle and high school students based on learning styles was applied for 12 weeks. As a result, the experiment group applied with a tutoring strategy based on the learning style showed significant improvements in terms of satisfaction and achievement than the control group.

Der Computer kann ein nutzliches, herausforderndes und kreatives Werkzeug und Hilfsmittel beim Sprachenlernen darstellen. Bei der Anwendung auf die Situation des Grammatiklernens sind die analytischen und interaktiven $F\"{a}higkeiten$ des Computers mit gutem Erfolg eingesetzt worden. Eine der attraktivsten Eigenschaften des Computers ist nun seine $F\"{a}higkeit$, mit dem Schiller zu interagieren. Gute Computerprogramme $erm\"{o}glichen$ eine ausgedehnte Interaktion zwischen Computer und $Sch\"{u}ler$. Die Computerprogramme zum Sprachenlemen befassen sich mit Grammtik. Hier habe ich ein Lemprogramm des Intelligent Tutoring Systems $f\"{u}r$ die Grammatik Perfekt programmiert. Das Intelligent Tutoring System ist ein Computerlehrer. Wenn dem $Sch\'{u}ler$ Fehler unterlaufen, gibt ein guter Lehrer nicht nur die richtige Antwort, sondern hilft dem Schiller auch, seinen Fehler zu erkennen, ihn zu analysieren und zur richtigen Antwort zu finden. Das ist eine Funktion des Intelligent Tutoring Systems. Die Programme geben die Fehlermeldung richtig oder falsch. Dem Schuler werden Aufgaben vorgelegt, die sich aus mehreren Schritten und Prozessen zusammensetzen, wobei der Computer als Werkzeug bei der Suche nach einer $L\"{o}sung$ dient In guten $Probleml\"{o}sungsprogrammen$ verfolgt der Computer den $L\"{o}sungsansatz$ des $Sch\"{u}lers$ und analysiert seine Fehler. Wenn der Schuler bei der $\"{U}bung$ die richtige Antwort $ausw\"{a}hlt$, lauft das nachste Lernprogrammn des Computers. Die $\"{U}bungstyp$ kann auf dem Computer angereichert werden, indem $pr\"{a}zise$ und hilfreiche Kommentare $f\"{u}r$ jede $Auswahlm\"{o}glichkeit$ geboten werden.

This study analyses the effects of the major educational policies, focusing on the private tutoring prohibition policy(PTPP), on the intergenerational class mobility(ICM) by using Korea Labor and Income Panel Study(KLIPS) 1st-12th surveys. Because private tutoring(shadow education) can be effective for academic achievement of children of above middle classes that spend most private tutoring expenditure and have more information on education, the private tutoring prohibition policy can increase the intergenerational mobility. This study confirms this possibility. Even when the overlapping effect of the middle school equalization polity is controlled for, there is still high effect of the PTPP. We think that we still need to examine the level of intergenerational mobility with PTPP cohort with that of later cohorts in the future. We also emphasize the compositive effect of the several consistent policies such as middle school and high school equalization polices and the PTPP and length and continuity of the policies for the higher mobility.
