An Integrated Teaching and Learning Assistance System Meeting Requirements for Smart Education

Abstract

There have been numerous attempts to heighten the effects of education over the course of history. Currently, many relevant studies are being carried out on such issues as utilization of recently developed Information and Communication Technology (ICT) for education, which has become a global topic; efforts are being put into this movement at the national level. However, the systems to assist the efforts are not yet sufficient. Through this research, in this light, the Structured Plug-in Integrated Teaching and Learning Assistance System was developed, which aims to achieve affirmative results from ICT on education. This system can provide the instructor, learner, and their parents with a real-time monitoring system, intelligent tutoring system, collaborative education mechanism, e-Portfolio system, and digital material production method. Further, the system can be realized in the form of a Structured Plug-in. The system has been used in six classes of 219 fourth-year students in Korean elementary schools to analyze the system's effects. In doing so, a questionnaire was developed and carried out on the students after the testing period. According to the results, the overall satisfaction level was 4.067 and the level of satisfaction on the content quality was 3.99, referring to 'satisfaction'.
