A Case Study of the Design and Operation of a Flipped Learning Class using Edu tech in SW Basic Liberal Arts Edu cation

Abstract

In a world that is changing with digital technology, SW and AI are no longer necessary only for those students majoring in these fields. The Corona pandemic has accelerated these changes even more. A University also reorganized its information technology utilization competency curriculum to keep pace with these changes and opened SW basic compulsory liberal arts courses from 2021. Due to the nature of SW education, learning effects can be expected only when learning motivation and continuous learning are maintained. However, for learners who need to receive basic SW liberal arts education in a non-face-to-face class environment, the burden of learning has increased. Therefore, as a way to increase the learning effect of SW basic liberal arts education, Edutech was used as a relatively efficient flipped-learning teaching method during the Corona pandemic and the class was designed and operated. After operating a flipped learning class using Edutech in SW basic liberal arts education, students were asked to participate in the class through a questionnaire involving their level of understanding, interest, benefit, recommendation, satisfaction, appropriateness of learning materials, assignments and quizzes. Appropriateness of learning support was checked. As a result of the questionnaire analysis, it was possible to confirm the positive aspects of the effectiveness of the flipped learning class using Edutech in the SW basic liberal arts education, and also in the area concerning the need for improvement measures. Even in the post-Corona era, the use of Edutech is expected to develop more and more. In this respect, the flipped learning class design using Edutech in SW basic liberal arts education can be said to be a meaningful class design and mode of operation in preparation for the post-Corona era. In future research, by conducting in-depth research on improvement measures, we intend to develop a systematization plan for SW basic liberal arts education that can be helpful in strengthening information technology capabilities of the students and nurturing their talents.
