This study attempts to introduce and develop nature experience program utilizing the instructional mixed reality and examines its effects on creativity and young children in order to overcome the limitations that can be found when young children explore and observe nature. In addition, the purpose of this study is to investigate the change aspects of creativity and nature-friendly ability of young children when experiencing nature with the further activities using the instructional mixed reality. To verify the effect of the instructional mixed reality developed through this process, this study selected 30 young children who are 5 years old in H child care center located in Seoul. As a research tool, creative test of characteristics for children (K-CTC) produced and standardized by Chung Kyung-won (2003) was used to test creativity. As data analysis methods, SPSS 17.0, T-test, MANOVA test, and repeated measure ANOVA were conducted.

This study attempted to examine what changes of creative play characteristics occur when having education experience using multimedia in the field of early childhood education. In order to conduct the study, 15 infants at H day care center and 15 infants at S day care center, both located in Seoul, were selected as the subjects. The program processing was composed of extension activities using multimedia after listening to fairy tales using multimedia. For study instrument, the behavior test for creative play developed by Hwang Yoon Sae (2008) was used. This instrument consisted of total 5 subfactors: intrinsic motivation – imagination; sensitivity – curiosity; durability – immersion; various interests – challenge; and initiative – independence. For statistical analysis, SPSS 17.0 was used, and t-test was used for the statistic process. As a result of the experiment, it was concluded that the education experience using multimedia has positive effect on overall characteristics of creative behavior of infants; in detail, behavior characteristics of infants in the aspects of intrinsic motivation – imagination, sensitivity – curiosity, and durability – immersion were remarkably improved, whereas the characteristics in the aspects of interests – challenge and initiative-independence did not show any particular changes. In other words, the infants who receive a lot of multimedia materials have more creative thinking than those who do not receive a lot of multimedia materials, and this thinking ability is also reflected in play activities.

This paper is an advanced work for the follow-up study 'Development of Teaching and Learning Programs of Intercultural Education in Universities Utilizing German and French Commercial Movies'. Before developing teaching and learning programs of intercultural education for undergraduates utilizing movies as one of the most typical digital image media in modern times, we try to review theoretical the utilizability of digital image media and game contents as very efficient tools of intercultural teaching and learning program. The breakthrough of digital information and communication technology, and the digital revolution leading to a paradigm shift in the history of mankind make the 21th century be called 'knowledge and information age'. The integrated and interactive communication way based on the development of digital technology has a great effect on recognition way, recognition pattern and recognition process of contemporary people. In addition, it is also changing human recognition per se. First of all, digital image media have caused not only the remarkable change of social and cultural environment, but also a revolutionary change of educational field. The digital image media are thought of as one of the most efficient communication media which can satisfy optical desires of humankind and realize multilateral and sympathetic interchanges utilizing other sense organs. Therefore, the digital image media are anticipated to be a very efficient tool of teaching and learning program. Through this theoretical review we try to emphasize the needs for the development of teaching and learning program of intercultural education utilizing digital image media and game contents.

멀티미디어 시대에 접어들면서 ‘매체’는 더욱 다양화되고, 교육 현장에서의 사용 범위가 넓어졌다. 교사들은 매체를 활용하여 다양한 수업을 진행할 수 있게 되었고, 학습자는 매체를 통해 더 많은 정보들을 습득하게 되었다. 각 교과마다 매체에 대한 다양한 접근과 구체적 연구가 진행 중이며, 그 결과물에 대한 다양한 해석이 이루어지고 있다. 개정된 한문과 교육과정은 7차 교육과정과 다른 내용체계다. 매체의 활용 측면에서 본다면 개정된 내용체계는 이전 교육과정보다는 더욱 다양한 매체의 사용이 요구된다. 시대가 아날로그에서 디지털로 변화되면서 매체들은 다양하고, 역동적이며, 흥미로워 지고 있다. 기업이나 전문가, 일반인이 매체 생산에 동참하면서, 개인의 취향이나 목적에 따라 매체들을 생산하거나 가공하여 활용하고 있다. 개정된 교육과정에서는 ‘다양한 매체 자료를 활용하여 한문의 학습 효과를 높이되, 가급적 학습자 일방의 활동에서 멈추지 않고 다수의 학습자와 공유하고 교사와 학습자간 쌍방향에서 서로 소통할 수 있도록 한다.’고 하였다. 이는 전통적 방식의 교사 즉, 지식을 일방적으로 전달하고 평가하는 교사의 역할에서 학습자의 조력자로서의 역할을 의미하기도 한다. UCC와 플래시는 한문 수업을 쉽고 재미있게 이끌어 나갈 수 있는 유용한 매체다. 또한 교과서에 수록된 한시, 한문 산문, 한문 소설 등 문학 작품의 이해와 감상을 위한 콘텐츠 구성이 상대적으로 빈약한 것을 해결할 수 있는 것이기도 하다. 과거에 비해 매체에 대한 관심이 높고, 매체를 활용한 다양한 교수-학습 방법들이 개발되고 있음은 매우 고무적인 일이다. 본고에서는 다양한 교육매체 중 ‘UCC와 플래시’를 중심으로 교육현장에서 어떻게 선택하고 가공하여 교수-학습에 활용할 수 있는지 생각해보았다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a practical English program for college students which had been administered both on- and off-line. After over 1,400 freshmen took two TOEIC-based courses consecutively, questionnaires were administered to measure the students’ satisfaction of the program and their perceived usefulness of on-line learning. The effectiveness of the English program was measured through the improvement in the students’ TOEIC scores, their perceived usefulness of online learning, and their satisfaction with the program. The results showed a statistically significant increase in the students’ TOEIC scores in both semesters, with greater improvement in the second semester as compared to the first. Although the students’ overall perception of the usefulness of e-learning was in the middle on the scale, those who perceived online learning as useful were shown to have spent more time studying for the courses outside class, thereby improving their TOEIC scores and enhancing their level of satisfaction with the program. Pedagogical and research implications are suggested.

The fast growth of the area of Industrial Technology has brought about the drastic change in educational environments, especially for foreign language teaching. The most noticeable change is that the information which was usually under the control of instructors can now be directly conveyed to leaners throughout multiple kinds of information channels. With this unstoppable trend, the instructors no‘w strongly motivated to focus on various types of media app1ication. Given these facts, this paper main1y deals with the web-based instruction (WBI) among others, since WBI is a well-known and easily accessible type of instruction. In this study, WBI is approached with two different aspects. One is a functional aspect. The other is a psychological aspect. The WBI enables learners to choose any information on any fields, and it makes learners choose their own learning leve1 according to their needs and 1earning ability. In this paper, the future of WBI is a1so discussed with three different ang1es: software, hardware, and educationa1 diversity. In addition, this paper argues for the need to incorporate into foreign language teaching all advantages verified to be useful so far in both fields-traditional classroom. teaching and WBI.

인터넷의 개발에 따라, 학습용 WBI가 개발되어 학습효과에 많은 영향을 주고 있다. 하지만 이러한 WBI개발에서 어려운점은 멀티미어제작시 발생되는 동영상의 구현이나 에니메이션을 기존의 하이레벨언어나 로우레벨언어에 근거를 둔 프로그래밍기법을 도입하여 쉽게 해결하기가 어려운점이 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 최근 메크로미디어사에서 오소웨어(Authoware)라는 소프트웨어를 개발하여 그 응용성이 주목되고 있다. 이 오소웨어의 응용성을 파악하기 위하여 해양에서 발생되는 현상중 가장 대표적이 조석에 따른 해면변위와 그것에 따른 해안비치의 변동에 오소웨어를 이용하여 WBI를 구성하였다. 현장조사자료로서는 제주도의 이호 해수욕장의 측량자료와 제주항의 조위자료를 이용하였다. 그 결과 오소웨어를 이용하여 원하는 조위변동을 시각화하는데 매우 효율적이며 빠른 시간내에 원하는 웹을 구축하는 툴이 될수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 동영상을 요구하는 다른 형태의 WBI개발에도 적용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

21세기 과학기술 문명과 고도의 정보화 사회로 변천되면서 컴퓨터는 이 사회의 적응을 위하여 매우 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. 이러한 흐름은 음악교육에서도 다양한 차원의 교수매체의 활용과 그 적용이 적극적으로 모색되어져야 한다. 음악교수 매체의 활용은 독특한 학생들의 감성을 보다 효율적으로 표현할 수 있게 하며, 음악의 효과적인 사용을 주제중심 학습과 함께 자연스럽게 표현할 수 있게 한다. 이는 폭넓은 정보를 습득하고 과목과 단원의 경계를 넘어서 통합적으로 사고할 수 있게 할 뿐만 아니라, 학습동기를 강화하여 보다 더 적극적인 음악활동을 할 수 있게 한다. 본 연구에서는 학생들이 스스로 주제를 정하고 그 주제에 의한 이미지를 수집하여 음악매체 활용의 방안을 찾으려 하였다. 이에 ‘GoldWave’는 소리의 효과적인 편집에 사용하였으며 MovieMaker는 음악과 이미지의 조화로운 표현에 매체 활용의 교수·학습 방안을 설계하였다.
