캠퍼스 학습 환경 진단도구(University Learning Environment Evaluation Scale) 개발 및 타당성 검증

초록

This study aimed to develop a statistically validated measurement scale to evaluate university campus learning environments which help students succeed in their learning and development in Korean higher education context. In order to establish a theoretical model, college student development models and results of the related studies were examined including the campus ecology model, student engagement theory, empirical and case studies related to college effects conducted in Korea and the US. To statistically validate the theoretical model, an exploratory factor analysis and an confirmatory factor analysis were conducted respectively. Samples include 6,216 faculties and staffs from 64 universities in Korea. The findings suggest thirty survey items with eight environment factors: a) access and safety, b) learning space design, c) educational goals, d) education quality management, e) tailored student supports, f) campus life supports, g) university community culture, and h) expanded community. Finally, the study provided theoretical and practical implications of the study and suggested directions for future research.
