Abstract

The quality level of university education can be evaluated by various indicators, but the most important thing is whether the university’s educational subjects practice a high level of education in terms of quantity and quality. However, college students form a specific culture related to attitude, norms, and values for class participation and interact with professors, and the quality level and specific appearance of education may vary depending on the characteristics of the culture. Therefore, it is necessary to examine what thoughts and feelings college students have about participating in class, what activities they value in class, and how these perceptions and practices affect educational relations.
 In this study, professors, assistants, and students of A university were selected as participants to examine the aspects of conflict among college students’ participation in classes and educational relationships. Through the research methods of participation observation, in-depth interviews, and local data surveys, the daily activities and contexts of class participation were specifically understood, and related data were constructed and analyzed. Based on these research results, it was suggested that qualitative indicators showing the characteristics of student culture in class participation should be specified to support university members to share and reflect on their activities, and to provide various channels for professors and students to participate in education. This study aims to contribute to exploring the changes and adjustments necessary for the practice of better educational relationships by specifically understanding the student culture of class participation from an insider perspective.
