Abstract

Journal of the International Network for Korean Language and Culture 17-2, 247-278. The purpose of this paper is to suggest the desirable direction of real-time online learning by analyzing the perceptions and satisfaction levels of learners of Korean language educational program who participated in the classes. To this end, a survey was conducted on 96 learners of Korean language education program at D University to find out the levels of their expectation, satisfaction, and preference on the virtual classes, their perceptions on Webex program, learning device, and class progress, their class participation, and the difficulties they had in the classes. As a result of the study, it was found that the ease of using the real-time online learning system, contents provided by instructors, and strategies for activating interactions increased the learner satisfaction levels. However, learners played a passive role in learning, and their participation in classes was not high. Therefore, we proposed the development of contents and activities that can give learners self-directed learning and participation in real-time online learning situations, activating strategies for interactive learning, and ways to increase learners' motivation and participation. In addition, there were students experiencing difficulties when using a mobile phone as a learning device, so it is also necessary to develop class content and a teaching strategy suitable for them. For follow-up studies, we also suggested in-depth interviews on real-time online learning perception and satisfaction and comparative studies on various online learning consumers including undergraduate students as well as learners of Korean institutions affiliated with universities were proposed.(Dongguk University)
