Abstract

The purpose of this study is to design and develop the e-mentoring system which supports the effective information education and to evaluate the usability of the system. Through literature reviews of related studies, an effective e-mentoring performance model was drawn. An e-mentoring system was designed and developed based on the model. 237 middle school students who had participated in e-mentoring for the information education evaluated the usability of the system. As a result of it, the system was considered good in both category(supporting mentoring(M=3.63), technology(M=3.78). The means of subcategories of 'supporting mentoring'(instructional easiness, psychological safety, and adaptability) were scored 3.65, 3.30, 3.43 respectively. And means in the subcategories of 'technology'(usefulness, accuracy, and look & feel) were 3.90, 3.64, and 3.73. It can be concluded that the e-mentoring system developed in this study was effective in mentoring information education.

이 연구는 중학교 정보교과 교육을 효과적으로 지원하기 위한 전자멘토링 시스템을 설계 및 개발하고 그것의 효과성을 검증하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 관련 문헌분석을 통해 효과적인 전자멘토링 수행모형을 도출하고 이 모형을 기초로 전자멘토링 시스템을 설계하고 개발하였다. 또한 이 시스템을 형성평가 하고자 경기도 중학생 237명을 대상으로 사용성 평가를 실시하였다. 사용성 평가 결과, '멘토링지원'과 '시스템' 두 영역은 각각 평균 3.63과 3.78(5점 만점)로 비교적 좋은 평가를 받았다. 멘토링지원의 하위영역중 '교수-학습 용이성', '심리안정성', '적용가능성'은 각각 평균 3.65, 3.30, 3.43을 받았고, 시스템 하위영역 '편리성', '정확성', '심미성'은 각각 평균 3.90, 3.64, 3.73으로 비교적 높은 점수를 받았다. 연구결과로 볼 때, 본 연구에서 개발한 전자멘토링 시스템은 정보교과교육을 지원하는데 있어서 어느 정도 효과적이며 효율적인 것으로 판단할 수 있다. 향후에는 전자멘토링 운영에 있어서 멘토와 운영진에 대한 체계적인 교육 방안에 대한 연구가 지속적으로 이루어져야 할 것이다.
