Abstract
The study developed three items in total. First, the application which enables learning contents run on Android OS and Windows Mobile OS was developed. Second, contents which will be applied on the application were manufactured. The contents developed in this study are for learning English presentations. The contents are classified into two parts; Part 1 is for basic English presentations, and Part 2 is for advanced English presentations. The third development is Learning Management System(LMS) that is driven by connected with PC. Contents studied on mobile devices are recorded by LMS, so that users can learn continuously not only on mobile devices but also on PC. We analyzed the questionnaire responses with respect to UI satisfaction and satisfaction of the learning experience. The UI satisfaction results showed that 85% of the participants were satisfied at an ordinary or higher level with our system. And The satisfaction of the learning experience results showed that 95% of the participants were satisfied at the ordinary or higher level with our system.
This research was supported by a research grant of Seoul R&BD Program (# PA090747).
