The purpose of this study was to develop an intelligent customized Flipping Learning design model and support system (LAPA-FL) which is expected to be a future learning model. For this purpose, we collected various kinds of data related to learners and their learning behaviors, accumulated in smart and wearable devices. After that, we analyzed and interpreted them psychologically, biologically and behaviorally through data mining techniques, and conducted learning analytics research to link these results to teaching and learning interventions.
We designed LAPA-FL model and system that focuses on motivating students to engage in self-directed learning process and enjoy learning. In addition, we aimed to conduct empirical research in mathematics to verify and improve the framework and product of LAPA-FL. The reasons for selecting the field of mathematics are as follows: First, there was a need to solve the problem that students, in mathematics, show extreme disagreement between the high academic achievement and the low learning motivation. Second, for enhancement of national competitiveness in knowledge-based society of information, the educational renovation in mathematics which is considered as the basis of logical and analytical competence, was required.
The scope of the research project is summarized as the main task within the three years from the first stage as follows.
1) Development of a prediction model based on research on learner behavior, psychology, and motivation
2) Development of digital content player, learner / teacher reflection dashboard, and flipped learning class in mathematics
3) Verification of intervention effect and supplementation of model
Until June 30th, 2018, the research team conducted the theoretical or empirical studies to understand learner's behavior, psychology and motivation, and the research to develop prediction models and provide educational intervention was followed. In detail, we conducted the studies related to psychological interpretation about learners’ behavior, flipped learning design, learning motivation design (T1, 2 3), video contents evaluation and modification, prediction model development and validation (T1, E1), the qualitative and quantitative research for flipped learning (E3, 4), smartphone application development (D1, 2), dashboard and offline-class design (D3), and video learning contents development (D4).
In order to successfully accomplish the project, the research team carried out learning analytical approach that merges several interdisciplinary fields such as teaching & learning theory, psychophysiology theory and techniques, statistical analysis, and computer programming.
