Learning with information in an infomration-rich environment

풍부한 정보 환경에서 정보와 함께 하는 학습: 인지기술 활용을 중심으로

Abstract

The Purpose of this study is to investigate how information use contributes to learning. Conducted as part of a larger study, this study focuses on learning by analyzing students' use of cognitive skills during the Process of using information. Within the broad methodological framework of qualitative research in constructivist paradigm (Guba and Lincoln, 1998), the study applied the revised Bloom's taxonomy (Anderson and Krathwohl, 2000) as a particular framework to understand the Phenomenon. Participants included 21 high school juniors in an honors' class of persuasive speech. The study's combinational use of two techniques -concept mapping and individual interview - in a naturalistic setting Proved to be the unique methods for researching the reflection of information use in learning Products. The results revealed that changes in students' understanding occured in four types - simple, analytic, organizational, and holistic changes. The analysis using the revised Bloom's taxonomy showed that a variety of cognitive skills were used during the whole process of information use and that the use of higher levels of cognitive skills is particularly crucial.

본 연구는 정보이용이 학습에 영향을 미치는 과정을 탐구하였다. 특히 정보이용 과정 중에 활용된 학습자들의 인지기술 분석을 통한 그들의 의미 있는 학습 과정에 초점을 맞추어, 성공적인 정보이용이란 단순한 사실과 개념의 검색이라는 일반적 가정을 넘어서 학습자에게 개인적으로 의미 있는 학습이라 정의한다. 구성주의적 패라다임에 근본을 둔 질적 연구 방법론을 이용한 본 연구는 앤더슨과 크래스울(Anderson and Krathwohl, 2001)이 제시한 개정된 블룸의 택사노미라는 개념적 틀에 기초하여 실제정보이용 환경에서는 어떠한 인지기술이 활용되고 결과물에 반영되는지를 탐구하였다. '설득력 있는 화법(Persuasive Speech)"이라는 영어과 교과 중 하나의 과목의 우등반 학생 21명의 참여로 두 가지 방법론의 혼합적 활용이 - 개념도와 개별 인터뷰 - 제안되어 학 습자들의 자연스런 정보 환경 속에서 시도되었다. 연구 결과는 학생들이 정보이용 과정 중에 네 가지 패턴의 변환을 거치면서 개정된 블룸의 텍사노미에 제시된 모든 단계의 학습에 필요한 인지기술의 활용이 발견이 되었고 특히 풍부한 정보 환경에서는 고급 학습단계의 인지기술의 활용이 중요하다는 것이 밝혀졌다.
