  • 학교의 학습 과정에 있어서 학습자 간의 학습 능력의 차이는 존재하며 이를 해결하기 위해 교육과정에서는 개별 학습과 수준별 학습을 권장한다. 유무선 인터넷을 통한 수준별 학습은 최근에 많은 연구가 되고 있는 u-러닝(Ubiquitous Learning) 환경에도 부합하며 학습자 개개인이 자신의 속도와 수준에 맞게 자기주도적으로 학습을 하기에 알맞은 방법이라 할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 학습자가 시간과 공간에 구애받지 않고 자율적으로 수준에 맞게 학습할 수 있는 수준별 학습 시스템을 설계하였다. 특히 시스템에 체계성을 더하기 위해 개별화 학습 체제 중에서 과거 많은 연구를 통해 그 효과성이 입증된 Keller의 PSI(Personal System of Instruction) 이론을 활용하여 시스템의 각 과정을 설계하였다. 본 시스템의 장점은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 학습자가 원하는 시간과 공간에서 자신의 속도에 맞게 학습할 수 있으므로 자기주도적인 학습 능력을 기를 수 있다. 둘째, 시스템 구성상 평가를 통해 일정한 기준에 미달하면 목표에 도달할 때까지 계속 학습하고 도전해야 하므로 궁극적으로 완전학습에 도달할 수 있다. 셋째, 제한된 교실 상황에서 벗어나 온라인에서의 학습 지원이 가능하므로 학습자의 개인차에 따른 수준별 학습을 관리하고 책임져야 하는 교사의 부담을 덜어준다.

  • The purpose of this study was to develop and apply a differentiated instruction-learning reflecting various characteristics and demands of the gifted underachievers, and thereby help to develop the study attitude and study achievement of the gifted underachievers. To achieve the purpose, a case study on five gifted underachievers who are in $6^{th}$ grade of elementary school was conducted. By collecting and analyzing a variety of data including standardized tests, interviews with teachers, students, and parents, and observation journals, this researcher examined the characteristics and demands of the gifted underachievers. For the development of the program, differentiated strategies were designed according to students' interest and concern, their multiple-intelligence, and their learning styles. As a result of the application of them, a program with a total of 20 sections was finally developed. The result of the application for the differentiated instruction-learning program revealed improvements in their academic achievements. In addition, it was found that their learning motives were improved. The program was also found to affect their self-concept and their attitude toward learning. The study showed that developing an education program for the gifted underachievers should begin from the analysis of each student's characteristics. Also, it was found that a differentiation strategy could become an alternative to apply various characteristics and demands of the gifted underachievers to the development of a program. The gifted underachievers' intellectual and definitive characteristics were changed even by the short-term mediation. Therefore, the new issue about educating the gifted is to provide a differentiated instruction-learning program fitting their characteristics and demands and help them exert their potential as best as they could.

  • The problem of poor learning has been a subject that has been constantly raised in the educational field since the mid 20th century. Therefore, this study classified the components of self - regulated learning into cognitive - control, motive - control, and behavior - control strategies, and examined the effects of self - regulated learning on internal value, self - efficacy, curiosity, and self - confidence. The study was conducted on university students who participated in the program for the study of depression in A university in Changwon city. The results showed that self - regulated learning factors had a positive effect on learning motivation. Second, the learning adjustment factors have a positive effect on self - efficacy. Finally, learning control factors have a positive effect on curiosity and self - confidence. Through this study, we confirmed that a comprehensive guidance system considering interaction is needed because various factors act integrally in the learning process. As a concrete method, it is imperative to develop a learning counseling program that can enhance the motivation level by referring to cognitive, synchronous, and behavioral factors.

  • This study aims to identify the effect of music psychotherapy on motivation for learning in the underachieving student. The study divided nine children into two groups and placed four children in a test group and five children in a control group. After conducting a pre-test, the researcher performed music psychotherapy with the four children in the test group for about 12 weeks, twice a week, totaling 18 sessions. Quantitative data were measured in pre-and-post tests using Mann-Whitney's U-test, and the effects of the therapy were analyzed using Wilcoxon. The findings of this study were as follows. Music psychotherapy was shown to be effective for improving all types of motivation for learning in underachieving students (p < .001). This was shown by assessing improvements in the experimental group across four sub-areas of motivation for learning (p < .1), and directly measured by examining the subjects' lingual responses related to motivation for learning. These results demonstrate that music psychotherapy is effective for enhancing motivation for learning in underachieving students.

  • In this research, we observed how students perform as they followed the teachers' instruction, and consequently perform their realized potential. As the accountability of school education is emphasized, various attempts try to disconnect the vicious cycle of producing low achievers. Efforts are allocated into developing a method to minimize cumulative effect of the lag in educational benefit by focusing on the elementary education. Based on the 2007 revised curriculum, mathematics achievement level and assessment criteria were developed. These criteria were used to standardize the course and assessment objectives for 4th through 6th grade students' mathematics studies, and to assess lower performing students and the lag in their mathematical understanding. The educational materials and assessment criteria can be expected to lead lower performing students by giving them the personalized lesson plans to minimize the lag of mathematical understanding, and eventually expedite their progress and prevent cumulative effect of the lag in the following curriculum.

  • This study was to investigate how the underachievers of mathematics in a non-leveling excellent high school would overcome the errors through the lessons based on the inductive thinking model in the equation of a circle. The results showed that when there were many stages to solve the problem, the students gave it up or forgot the stage they reached. In this case, if they had a revisit-opportunity to review their thinking process by planning ahead the stage to solve the problem and recording it, the omission error of the solving process and the error of wrong conclusions would be dramatically decreased. Moreover, they understood the mathematical concept, principle, and formula and remembered the learning contents extremely well through thinking by themselves in exploration-based activities and by using visualization for the problem and could solve the problem through these pictures besides algebraic expressions.

  • The purpose of this study was to explore the lived experiences of university students who were placed under academic probation. A qualitative research design was used to understand the experiences of students. The data were collected using individual in-depth interviews with 4 students who had experiences of low academic achievements at least once during 5 semesters. Low self esteem was the main issue in this study and inner struggles were identified within 4 themes: Outstanding students controlled by helpers; A costume play as a outstanding student; Realize that I am a under academic achiever; Realize who I am and what I have to do. This study identified that low academic achievement brings to low self esteem seriously, however, human being has strong resilience in the traumatic circumstances. Thus, it is absolutely necessary devoting efforts to develop suitable student supporting programs in the way of inner and outer network systems.
